Leave your thoughts about The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift.
| EDGE BostonDavid FoucherThe plot is basically scrap metal; but for those who appreciate high-paced motor stunts, this heart-pounder lives up to its name. |
| San Diego Union-TribuneDavid ElliottThis greased popcorn box uses women as hood ornaments. |
| Empire Magazine AustralasiaLuke GoodsellA neon-lit western where the steeds are cast in steel and the drifter's gunfight for the town and the girl is fought on four wheels; it's a movie proudly committed to noise, colour and motion. |
| The Coast (Halifax, Nova Scotia)Mark PalermoThe third entry in the Fast and the Furious franchise burrows culture shock in dishonesty. |
| Movie EyeFrank OchiengAnother vapid actioner involving smoking wheels and women...Tokyo Drift doesn't burn its rubber very convincingly. |
| Seattle TimesJudy Chia Hui HsuPut aside the topic and title, and you've got a slick car-racing movie set in a sexy metropolis with a likable teen hero that stands just fine on its own. |
| Los Angeles Daily NewsGlenn WhippTokyo Drift has no story and no stars. That just leaves the rides, which are shiny and loud and fast and sometimes just as computer-generated as their counterparts in Pixar's Cars. |
| Detroit Free PressJohn MonaghanThink of the countless car chases you've seen at the movies. Then catch Tokyo Drift to understand how this movie, as silly as it is, offers something different and fresh. For fans of the genre, that's a stunt worth getting revved up for. |
| PopMattersCynthia FuchsEven amid the formulaic romancing of boys and girls and above all, cars, the movie takes up the concept of "drift" as metaphor, ideology, and aesthetic. |
| CompuserveHarvey S. KartenEven NASCAR fans might tune out to the loud rhythms of souped-up autos. |
