This one creates some weird timeline problems by killing off a character who would appear in future installments but at the end of the day it was worth it to halt the entire franchise and focus on the electric screen presence of Lucas Black playing a 39 year old high school student
someone pay me to write about the fast and the furious franchise, i'll make it poetic and beautiful like these movies deserve. oh yeah this is a total masterpiece, like just so good in every conceivable way, even the discount paul walker feels perfect especially in the overarching nature of the franchise. it's the only film that doesn't neatly fit into the series but it represents the truth at the heart of fast and furious, that cars are phenomenal but what matters is who's driving them.
“Stay away from her, or the only thing you’ll be driving is a wheel chair”
Wow this was stupid. This was incredibly stupid. It’s even better when you remember that every time they say DK it means drift king. The main character was absolutely laughable. His accent had me in stitches. Han was cool, I also now understand why the timeline is so weird lmao.
I wish she would drift her way into my DM’s (she left me on seen)
teach me how to drift
this is my favorite episode of anthony bourdain
this is my LOST IN TRANSLATION
Up to this installment, I felt TOKYO DRIFT was the best directed FAST movie of the 3: The first is well PRODUCED, the second feels like a director did “one for them” (sorry John) but Justin Lin seems to get not just the street culture but how to capture the speed and danger without resorting to too many CSI shots inside the car, opting for as much practical as possible and an energy and style that would solidify the look and feel of every FURIOUS sequel after it. And from someone who drifted in Tokyo around the time this was filmed and released, let’s just say that they kinda nailed it.
In reality, where the first was a rip off of POINT BREAK, this one is essentially THE CAR-ATE KID and I’m not mad at it.
And it’s got Han…glorious, ever eating Han.
This movie smokes.
Honestly this might be the most iconic movie in the series; the title, the theme song, the fact that everyone looks 35 years old. The soundtrack is amazing too.
Yuck. The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift is really terrible. The film opens with a race where a woman is literally a prize to be won and that should warn you instantly of the degrading, insulting trashiness inherent to the film. This opening actually becomes a metaphor for the entire film, which is just a ridiculous dick-measuring contest involving cars where the winner essentially gets the helpless damsel in distress. There's a literal conversation about how men understand cars better than women. Every character is a stereotype, from the "trailer trash" characters to the rich kids to a whole plethora of Japanese and broader Asian stereotypes. This film may be set in Japan but the four lead good guys…
There is something so overwhelmingly moving about the Fast and Furious series. I have spent many hours of the last few weeks trying to piece together an assortment of words that properly convey the emotional power that this franchise has left on me for years of my life. There will always be this mythical unexplainable element to it that words will never be able to articulate fully, that kind of gut feeling that sticks with you your whole life and that you’ll do anything to bring back over and over again. The closest conclusion I’ve come to is that the series is currently the closest view I have to a version of masculinity that is both recognisable to me as…
Part 3 of ONE LAST RIDE
Woah. What was I thinking a few years back when I first saw this one? I used to hate this movie and I was completely dreading to rewatch this one, but color me surprised. No, VERY surprised. The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift is easily the best film so far in the franchise, blowing the first two out of the water. There's an actual plot with understandable motives, a much better sense of pacing, some sick car races and a somewhat memorable villain.
However, I still had some issues with it. Lucas Black might possibly be the worst actor to grace the big screen in quite some time. His acting always garners some…
The "Halloween III: Season of the Witch" of the Fast/Furious franchise, Justin Lin's "The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift" bears little connection to its predecessors beyond fast cars and a certain cameo. Those fast cars create energy and color, however, making the quick-paced, sometimes exhilarating experience an enjoyable, light-weight romp.
Following a teen troublemaker as he relocates from the US to Japan for one last chance living a life free of incarceration, "The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift" finds the good-hearted youngster picking fights and racing cars down Tokyo's streets. A rebel without a cause who can rarely avoid trouble no matter his best intentions, the young man finds redemption behind the wheel as his own path tangles…
In this essay I will discuss how fast and furious Tokyo drift is a reimagining of the martial arts film…
Silly car porn, full of corners but no twists. Races go from thrilling to boring, acting is careless.

This spicy soup of neon noir, western, and yakuza films is everything I want in a fast car movie babey!!!! This plot is ass but the editing & cinnamontography is the best out of the franchise.
I watched this at a party. This movie is great but none of my friends paid attention :(
No entiendo cómo está película sigue siendo considerada una secuela y que también es canon. Pero las películas de FF no pueden verse como otras películas normales porque se desmorona todo. Para ser de esta franquicia, esta peli está buena para ver con amigos y reírse.
At the beginning of the movie, I complained about how long it took them to start drifting. By the end of the movie, I just wanted the drifting to be over.
thinking abt the better timeline where Channing Tatum got the role of Sean and also did his shitty kingsman 2 accent 😔😔😔
