User Rating Rating: 3.5

Third in the boy-racer trilogy.

An outsider, Shaun Boswell finds a home through illegal street racing. This though lands him in trouble with authorities and to avoid jail time, he is sent to live with his father in Tokyo. There he discovers drift racing, which is the way in which these high-speed racers take corners on hair-pin heavy tracks.

His first crack is against the dangerous legend: 'Drift King'. He loses, and finds himself owing a big-ass debt. To pay it off, he must venture in the dark underbelly of Tokyo street racing.

Ok, first off the whole plot was indeed and real turn off from the prior movies. A new character was the best change BUT potentaly fatal , I heard fast and the furious 4 will be screened next year and if they dont add in sean boswell people will raise eyebrows and wonder what happend to him . This movie IS the best car racing movie . . . .ever . Cant wait for the fourth

Loved the film. The first 15 minutes of the movie is the tightest i've ever seen. It just bowled over all the boring parts and keeps moving. The first race is the best I've ever seen. And just when I think that's it the second one tops it. The setting of Tokyo was a great choice and fresh. I didn't know MC Hammer owns that city. Sonny Chiba was cool but this Sung Kang guy is a stud. Can't wait to see him in other films. Oh yeah, the third chase gets even better and unlike other films, the last one actually lives up to its worth. Now I have a film to watch after I get disappointed by all the poser blockbuster films out there.

My god, this is bad. I was dragged along - my instincts were right. Terrible, just terrible.

I liked this film, not as good as the other ones, but still delivering on its promises - cars & babes.

Bottom line is, if you like this sort of thing, racing etc. then you'll like it, if you don't - why see it?

KEEPS THE THRILLS COMING THICK AND, ER, FAST.
Hollywood Reporter

It's not much of a movie, but a hell of a ride. So what if the movie dumbs down Japanese culture to a bad yakuza movie? The cars are the stars here. Everything else is lost in translation.
New York Times

As in the previous two installments of the Fast and Furious franchise, this largely consists of macho tantrums, vying for the girl, intense vehicular mayhem and high-octane homoeroticism.

Tokyo Drift doesn't even function as good car porn.

1/2 It's all about eye candy and the quick tease. It's not over fast enough.
