Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's an FnF clone. Anyone whose seen that movie just can't help but make a comparison (including myself). I'm pretty sure some of you out there are thinking 'it's just a carbon copy of FnF.' Well, the truth is it's not. it may be in the genre of street racing but it's not a straight up FnF clone. In some ways, it's better than The Fast and the Furious. What is is is a riveting drama that tells the story four separate people who can only be connected by their love for pure, unbridled speed.
The plot is driven by the personal pursuits of each individual character; Katie with her home garage on the brink of foreclosure, Mike with his need to prove himself on the street, Eric with his desire for control of his life, and Nicole with her need to spice up her life.
Each personal conflict of these characters makes them more real and more relatable than that of the characters in the FnF series who were a bit bland and plastic. And the actors themselves gave quite a good performance as well.
The action sequences were not that bad either. The racing sequences were well done but not exaggerated to the point of ridiculous. If only this movie had the same budget given to Hollywood movies then maybe we could've really seen some fireworks.
All in all, it's a movie worth watching. Don't expect any award-winning stuff but that's not the point of this movie.
