Movie Review: 2 FAST 2 FURIOUS (2003)
2 Fast 2 Furious – 1/2*
Quickie Review
After being arrested for illegal street racing, fugitive LAPD officer Brian O’Connor (Paul Walker) is blackmailed into going undercover for US Customs so they can take down the leader of a major drug cartel. Unbelievably ridiculous and infinitely stupid, this street-racing sequel makes the same mistake of creating an inconceivable plot as the first film, only this time it does it without Vin Diesel. Paul Walker and his onscreen partner Tyrese come off as too dim-witted to succeed in the task at hand, and only Eva Mendes has no problem delivering the constipated dialogue. At least the plot is so completely disposable it rarely interrupts the killer racing scenes. Directed by John Singleton at the lowest point of his post-Boyz N the Hood career.
