2 Fast 2 Furious
One star out of four. I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt, since I only saw the last half of it, but I think that was enough. I won't subject myself to the first half. I was bashing my head enough during the part that I saw. This movie was incredibly unrealistic, and the only cars that weren't gay piles of scrap metal were the muscle cars that unbelievably lost in that race to the said piles of scrap metal that the "heroes" of the movie drive. Then there were the sequences where the police were chasing them. It's not like the director didn't have the knowledge of how chase sequences actually proceed. Hell, with all of "Wildest Police Videos" type shows on TV, even a shut-in couch potato knows how it's supposed to work. Police drivers are some of the best out there, because they are trained to be able to out-drive the people who try to get away from them. They're not the bumbling idiots as portrayed in this movie. And guess what? they never chase people in a pack of twenty cars. I've never seen more than four police cars trailing a vehicle in a chase. The rest are further up the road setting up blockades and spike strips. Why weren't any of those in the movie? Is it because the writers have the creativity of cud-chewing cows? Could be.
In short, if you want to see a good car movie, don't watch this one. Go to Blockbuster or wherever and rent "Gone in Sixty Seconds". Now THERE'S a good movie. Good enough, in fact, that I'll put that link here too.
