The Fast and the Furious is probably the first movie to get me into cars while at the same time enjoying myself without having to worry about a plot. Paul Walker plays Brian O'Conner, a hot shot police officer, who goes undercover as a car junkie Brian Spilner to see if a local street racer/mechanic by the name of Dominic Toretto (Vin Diseal) has anything to do with hijacking a bunch of cargo from DVD's, TV's, entertainment sets, and so forth while at the same time falling head over heels for Dominic's sister Mia (Jordana Brewster). Brian comes so close while at the same time gaining trust to the target (Dominic) itself where it's only a matter of time before the truth comes out. The film itself has the best action sequences involving street racing and high octane action where despite a so-so plot to follow, or one that's been seen before (such as Point Break), you don't have to worry about a thing. It's just pure fun. The film also stars Michelle Rodriguez (S.W.A.T.) as Dominic's girlfriend, Letty; Ted Levine (The Silence of the Lambs) as Sgt. Tanner, and singer Ja Rule in a small cameo as a contestant against Dominic.Read full review

Love this film, it is by far the best out of all of the fast and furious films so far and has a really well thought out story line, good film to watch especially for the lads
I think this is the best Fast and Furious film and would advise people watch it so they can find this out for themselves.
There's something to be said for shooting on film. While video is cheaper and easier, there's a quality that film can bring to a micro budget feature that gives it that special little something extra. Tyler Tharpe uses that to his advantage, crafting a strong thriller the first time out of the gate with his feature Freak. A young woman and her little sister (Paliganoff and Johnson) pack up and drive across the Midwest, unknowingly on a collision course with a hospital intern (Patton) transporting a homicidal maniac. Before long the maniac is loose, and his killing spree leads right to the sisters. It's a pretty typical set up for a horror movie, owing quite a bit to Halloween in its execution (so to speak). The Freak in the title is set up well (he murders his own mother in the opening minutes - as a child), and remains silent for the running time. Tharpe knows that less is more when it comes to scares, and the minimal sets and lack of blood adds quite a bit to the tension that builds as the story moves along. While the micro budget shows its seams at times (especially with the van the Freak is transported in - a bit more Rent-A-Wreck than hospital issue), having been shot on film adds that intangible quality that helps bump it up amongst the latest in the horror genre. If you're looking for extreme gore and lots of blood though, you'll have to look elsewhere. Tension and actual scares are the goal here, and Tharpe accomplishes that more than a few times. While Freak doesn't break any new ground, it is a solid little thriller that shows that with a good script, strong actors, and a good eye, horror doesn't need to break the bank to be good.Read full review
