Yeah, LOL. It got kinda surreal. Just like that short sequence where they drifted through that crowd of people...

Overall, I really enjoyed the film. I was expecting rice and crappy one-liners, but there were some really nice cars, and some slickly produced drifting. I feel that I got my nine bucks worth.

That Mustang was gorgeous, RB26DETT or not, and the Volks worked for it. I read somewhere that the Veilside kit on the RX-7 was like $15K... o.O

At NightmareRacing: To each his own. I prefer the mechanical gnashing of a uncorked 4 with a hissing turbo over the growl of a big, heavy V-8 with pistons the size of coffee cans anyday. Just personal preference.

 

I liked it, especially when it was shot in tokyo. Definetely should put more focus on the cars instead of !@#$ relationships...

 

Regardless of how bad the first two might had been this one came through.
Great Cars. Decent Actors. Good Movie.
It might sound bad but they even did a decent job ricing out a piece of American muscle.

 

Well I finally say F and F Tokyo Drift last night...and i liked it. I thought it was well done, there we some corny parts, but overall it was a good movie. I found that quite funny that the guy from Home Improvement (Brad Taylor) was in the movie, driving a viper.... that way totally gay but funny. As for the cars in the movie, pretty cool looking overall, not enough NOS used hahahaha (kidding!!), nice paint jobs, rims and the token ricer wings ...well done boys haha......
But I have to know, what the FUKK was BOW BOW drivin?? that green thing??? what the hell is that thing??? but it was nice to see some american muscle in the movie, even tho it was a mustang but still good times

 

Great Movie. I wish more was like this movie, even better.

 

The actual story of the movie wasn't that great, it was betrter then the second movie, but I just went to see the it for the drifting. The drifting scenes were awsome.

 

i liked the movie it was probably the best one out of the three... the drifting is really impressing. and i think there will probably be a 2 fast 2 furious: tokyo drift.

 

I thought it was a great movie...no Academy Award but well worth watching and very entertaining.

 

There will definitely be a #4. Vin Diesel in the end shows that. MY OPINION IS!!!!!. It will start off in #4 with them finishing the race and possibly having Paul Walker and Tyrese opening up there shop in Japan like they said they would do in the end of #2. I just dont know which girl was hotter. Vin Diesels sister in the first or that girl in #3. It kind of looks like Cobalt SS headligths in that RX7. My favorite parts were the beginning and the end. That Viper vs the 572 Monte Carlo was awesome. 2 evenly matched beautiful cars.

 

Saw it on 06/19/2006 and the movie was better than the second one but there was a lot of times that my girlfriend and I were thinking CHEEEEEEESSSSEE! on some of the lines. Like "the only way to solve this is to race down the mountain ". The Orange and black car was the highlight of the movie for me but I didn't know that it was an RX7 until I came on here. The ending was cool with the dodge sitting there. I think that car that Vin is driving was on the T.V show RIDES where it was called the Hammer and featured at the SEMA show.I think it's a 68 Cornet mixed with some charger parts.
When I left there was dumb asses with FWD cars tring to drift in the parking lot . I was yelling out those cars were rear wheel drive. Then there were some kids in Scion XB and early 90's Civic trying to race. I had to laugh when these stupid Scions think they are so bad ass when they are nothing but slow.

 

I liked the moive, it seemed a bit better than 1 and 2. My question is WTF was Twinkie driving? Like a fiberglassed Scion xB right?

 

Bow Bow (Twinkie) is driving a '06 VW Van Touran Custom

 

I liked it, especially all the drifting. When dude learned how to drift was crazy because that dude gave him his "mona lisa" of a car...It was a nice movie..It got me wantin gto go out and drift..The hot parts in the movie are driving...All in al it was okay..

 

I saw it the first night. Took an interesting direction. Watching him learn to drift very painful.
It was very entertaining and I liked the cars and the asian chicks werent bad either! Made a good addition to the series.

 

I liked it, finally saw it last night. other then the bunch of ******* kids trying to drift home, It was good. and it doesn't hurt, that i have a thing for oriental chicks

 

Nah both rotaties they test are in limp mode from abuse. That can't be changed because noone on teh set let them cool down from runs I bet money. I woudl restore that Veilside RX though, put it back in it's origional colors and remove all the black krylon form the interior and reveal all the beautiful red leather.

Saw the movie, yes, the car driving was great, the story stank like a $5 skank. Was it worth the $7 to watch? Not really.

 

I went to watch it and loved it its better than the first two with alot more cars and alot more car scenes. No vin deiesel isnt in it till the very end but if thats the only reason someone would not watch it their gay just like him. shheaaa

 

I came home and looked into a mail order Bride from Japan. Japanese chicks went up in value after seeing this movie. Drifting still sux.

 

lol yo there is this song from the movie that i want so bad, its the one where it sound like a young japanese pop singer., it played when the went to the club in the back of the club with all the models.

 

theres a song from the preview thats pretty much "almost over now" neptunes remix i think

 

i just saw it tonight. i liked it. had a decent story line to it.

 

i thought the movie was pretty damn good. nothing was really over done and it actually is pretty accurate to how important cars are in japan. it was damn good until ******* vin diesel showed up at the end...i thought that was retarded

 

I didn't read all the replies, so if my review seems similar to somebody else's, it's purely coincidental. It wasn't a bad movie, but it certainly was not great.

The good:
The high-adrenaline racing scenes were for the most part entertaining, although by the end they started to get highly repetitious. The last race down the mountain was especially long. The cars themselves were pretty cool, even if the actors had little to no idea what they were doing with them (several times I could have sworn that the director must have just told the actors to turn a ratchet somewhere in the vicinity of the engine bay). The glimpse of Japanese upper-middle class culture was impressive. I don't speak a shred of Japanese so I couldn't tell you if that was botched or decent.

The bad:
What storyline? The story verged on the pathetic. The viewer learns next to nothing about every single character and consequently those characters are highly forgettable. Cardboard cut-outs could have played some of the characters in the movie and it would have had the same effect. The only strong point in the entire story is the character Han, who at least seems to have some sort of moral decency and existence outside of a car, but about whom extremely little is ever discovered. The worst part about this movie, however, is the message it sends. If you could boil down the entire movie into a single phrase, it would be "If something doesn't go your way, just go illegally race your car." The main character, Sean, turns to racing as a solution for everything. Jock throws a baseball at your car? Race him. Don't like your life at home? Go race in a parking structure. Feeling new and awkward at school? Borrow somebody's car and race. Trying to win a girlfriend? Race. Trying to avoid getting killed by the mafia? Of course, race! All of this is only one step up from promoting fist-fights as solutions to problems, all the more so because the races are often extremely violent and always seem to end in injury to somebody.

The bottom line:
Tokyo Drift is amusing, and there are plenty of stunts and cars to look at, but don't go expecting some edifying tale or much of a tale at all, for that matter. And I really hope that today's young drivers do not take any of the characters of this movie as role models of any kind.

 

I thought it was ok.

 

Because Balts can't drift!
