Well, now I now what "drift" means.

A movie where it's plot is not to be analysed. It's more like a sript for a cartoon. The lower the IQ, the more enjoyable (as long as you like fast, cool cars). Glimpses of nuble tattoo-adorned Jananese chicks, a redneck American who has lost his way, and a '73 ('73, correct me if I'm wrong) Mustang is done up pretty nice.

The drifting is not all that enjoyable.

Would'be been more interesting with a Japanese main chick, but I digress.

Not advisable to go to the theatre to see unless you plan to make an evening of it and haven "even" more fun after. Don't let it end you night.

Not an altogether loss of 1.5 hrs or whatefer it was, but not bad. Better watched at home.

3 stars out of 5.

You'll be left wondering how Americans can go to an all Japanese school when they don't speak a lick of the language.

Leave your brain at home. If at home, leave it in a jar.

Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeqal! Nice arse!

I'm just telling people that the movie was worth some, albeit little, enjoyment. Unlike "The Davinci Code".

Why set it in Japan if there are no Japanese main characters? I'm sure everyone wants to see that movie just hoping they'll watch Vin Diesel nailing some trampy Japanese girl with orange skin.

Didn't happen. Orange skin. What the hell's that?

Of course I knew the movie wouldn't be epic. Like duh. But it wasted 1.5 hrs sufficently. Know what I mean? Anyway, them main character was annoying when he spoke.

Best scene was the first race. That was pretty good. 7 out of 10.

It's all about nothing, but since Davinci Code. Well.

Are there going to be any good movies this year? None yet.

No. That's in Japan? I'm thinking of giving my notice. Would Japan be cool for a bit?

Japan gave me the willies. This look is considered kind of old now.
