2 Fast 2 Furious - John Singleton - 2003

It's a Fun Popcorn Movie

Story: There was a story? Oh, right, it's there. It holds the chase scenes and action sequences together. If you look at it wrong, it will crumble. I never saw the first one and didn't seem too terribly lost by it, suggesting that the narrative is not the most important thing here. It gets a D and we're moving on.

Acting: Paul Walker does pensive very well. Tyrese Gibson steals the show. Not much more to say here. C

Direction: The action sequences are lots of fun and really what this movie is about. It's a popcorn movie. Disengage your brain and have fun. C

Visuals: See direction. C

Overall: It's a fun dumb movie. Don't pay more than five dollars to see it, and I can't recommend buying it because it doesn't really stand up to subsequent viewings. Unless of course you're a Fast and (the?) Furious franchise fan and need this movie to complete your collection. C


Tacmovies: We're not failed film students who bitterly criticize successful movies... really... sniffle... so, um... yeah, ahem: Follow our reviews on blogspot, myspace, flixter, amazon, imdb, yahoo movies, and youtube.
