I'd watch it for the entertainment value, just as I'd watch any other film - not because it is car related..... And cos I seen the other 3 I might aswell see how shit it's likely to be

2nd werent that good but i still watch it.

3 was better than 2 but not as good as 1

4 is meant to be back to a cops and robbers theme. dom is back,so is letty,brian and han form tokyo drift who i actually thought was the best one in 3

if you watch it as entertainment with a bit of artistic license going on with the technilogy front, then it's fine

the nerds who start dissing it because it's got this wrong and that wrong shoudl realise it's a film, not a documentry

Funny how Dom didnt even acknowledge the fact there was no floor when Brian picked him up

I like the films, as said you cant take it seriously like 90% of the chav's that go along to see it do. tbh if it was a serious film with street style racing in it, it would be fairly boring just like if the Bill or Casualty were mroe real life....you'd watch half hour of people sat around doing paper work and gossiping

I took my dad to see the 1st one, he loved it. Second one came out he got it on dvd, hated it. Took him to see the 3rd one, could tell he wasnt impressed all the way thru it until the end scene where Vin appears, my dad whispers to me 'now we're talking, going to get better now' (or along those lines) then the credits came up, could tell he was gutted

Thing is, when will they stop making them? They know they're on a good thing as it will always draw hoards of kids in.
