Fast & Furious (2009) - Blu-ray + Digital
L**S
Credibility going down
The cast and story formula is great. For those of us who got hooked on the first two original movies, this still entertaining. However the CGI stunts start taking over the series here so you will possibly spend some moments saying “Yeah right”.Also, More of a shake your head moment comes when you discover Han didn’t see FF3 and recovered from a fiery death. Long live Han and Letty! Still loved the movie!

IF you like the first one, forget 2 and 3: you'll like this one
It still has a lot of the flash expected from any episode in the Fast & Furious series, but there's more to this movie than eyecandy: The dialogue is surprisingly rich at times, and the acting delivers: you really feel like there's something on the line for each main character, and when Brian has a tough choice to make, you can see it on his face.As others have said, the plot for this episode is better than the other sequels. It ties into the first movie really well, showing the consequences of what happened in the first movie for all of the characters, eight years later. And, there is a lot at stake for each of the characters,so don't worry: it's not one of those "...remember when blah blah flicks". Indeed, there isn't a single flashback to anything from the previous movies. Rather, it ties all three films from the franchise together, and shows the complete evolution of FBI Agent Brian's character (Paul Walker), as he once again tries to choose between siding with the law, or with his loyalty to Torrato (Vin Diesel).Yep, it ties everything together, even Tokyo Drift. So you end up enjoying all three of the previous movies more as you see how this one ties them all together.

It’s Fast&Furious...of course it’s action packed
This was like the previous films in the series, action packed and I enjoyed it along side my wife...the ladies like the main characters and have a ❤️ of compassion for the loss of Paul Walker...Rest In Peace. Fast & Furious always delivers entertainment. We are missing the roll out of the next film do to inability for people to earn $ and visit movie 🍿 theaters! Wait another year!? for rollout of film 🎞 on screen 🎥.....We all have to work together so we all can get back to work and watch the next Fast&Furious Film!!! Get back to work America, we miss you 😘

Worth buying, love this movie
I seen this movie so many times that I lost count. I purchase this movie to replace my original DVD cause it has worn out where the picture and sound was gone. The Blu Ray is soooo much better!! I have the all the Fast and Furious movies, which I'm looking forward to purchase the next sequel.

Too Many Plot Holes, Crappy CGI
I was turned off in the very beginning where they are hijacking a gasoline truck somewhere in Latin America. They do all sorts of ridiculous automobile stunts (such as driving high speed in reverse, standing on the hood of a speeding car...) to steal the gasoline, when they could have more easily and with less risk taken the truck the old fashioned way - stopped it at a road block and made the driver get out and drive away. Then there was the crappy CGI of the gasoline truck crash. I thought it might get better, but it didn't.As the plot wears on, there is the typical rogue cop who is going to get fired any time now. He beats up another cop and I have no idea why, and that is never resolved (maybe I wasn't paying enough attention). The rogue cop does the typical extremely dangerous chase scene after some guy for something (does it matter?). The main character's girlfriend gets killed, and I am still not sure why other than to piss him off at a Latin American drug lord who inexplicably lives in the US. As the movie wears on, the Rogue Cop and good guy (played by Vin Diesel, and is actually a bad guy), go to Mexico to haul in drugs in very fancy cars though a tunnel while the Border Patrol is trying to catch them. I'm sorry, but I still can't figure that out. The tunnel is long, cut in rock, yet somehow the US Gov't didn't see it built. Why did they bring attention to it by racing cars into it at high speed?The movie wraps up predictably with the bad guys getting arrested/killed in the most ridiculous way possible, the rogue cop somehow keeps his job and gets the girl...I suppose this got a good rating because it is high action, lots of car crashes and so on. I also know I have to suspend disbelief whenever watching any kind of action movie. However, this one pushed the limits of that, and I frankly feel the movie sucks. Sorry...

Fast & Furious (4) may not be as good as movie 5
Fast & Furious (4) may not be as good as movie 5, but it's really in movie 4 where they start to develop and blow out the theme of family. So this is still one of my favorites in the franchise. There are definitely some odd story moments, but hey, you know what you're getting with the crew.

Fun DVD
The action is fun, but would not like to see it on the street in front of my house. Enjoyable escapism...
