The fourth film in the high-speed franchise with Vin Diesel and Paul Walker back in the drivers' seats. The action heads back to L.A. where ex-cop Brian O’Conner (Walker) and fugitive Dom Toretto (Diesel) are forced to confront a mutual enemy - a sociopathic drug kingpin who is flooding the U.S. with lethal product (via street racers who zip across the U.S.-Mexican border). The car-nage involves convoy heists to precision tunnel crawls across the border. Michelle Rodriguez and Jordana Brewster are also back.
Number four in the most souped-up, turbo-charged franchise in the movie world has arrived, and it’s not deviating too far from the playbook that made it such a success up to this point. If anything, it tries to recapture those bygone glory days by re-casting Paul Walker and Vin Diesel in the roles that made them stars.

A series that's provided a successful, moderately enjoyable ride up to now blows its tires, gasket and transmission on its way to flaming out in Fast & Furious.

Slick action, hot hardware, shame about the screenplay… Still, it’s the best since the original TFATF, and fans of Diesel’s gravel-voiced swagger will get a kick seeing him reprise the role that put him on the map.

I admire the craft involved, but the movie leaves me profoundly indifferent. After three earlier movies in the series, which have been transmuted into video games, why do we need a fourth one? Oh. I just answered my own question.

Fast & Furious is, in a very bizarre way, a thing of gasp-inducing artistry to watch, even if you're not a member of the NASCAR, gear-head, street-racing crowd.

Fast & Furious is the first film since the original to be smart about how far to stretch logic without sacrificing the desired macho swagger and revved-up emotions.

If it were a DVD, you’d Fast & Forward to the chases, but not Forgive & Forget the crushing disappointment. In cinemas, you have to endure exposition and sob-you-were-my-best-friend scenes. It’s clearly time for Fast & Furious Vs. The Transporter...

A good action flick is just as difficult to get right as a film from any other genre. And Fast and Furious is one of the better examples I've seen in ages.
