I have been looking at the review online and The LA times gave it three stars says it is better than the first one. I am shocked.

2 Dull, 2 Boring... or how about 2 Predictable, 2 Derivative...
no no, maybe 2 Crap, 2 weeks(in theatres).
I really liked the first one when I saw it (4 times in the theatre). It had great brainless action, hot women and fast cars. It managed to rise above it's problems (some bad acting, some questionable plotting etc.) and remained entertaining and fun...
This movie never rose above these problems. It feels like a rap video half the time, the action scenes never thrill and fail to impress (all the good stuff is in the trailer), Paul Walker is pretty flat (Tyrese is charismatic, but can't save the film) and there aren't enough girls in the movie...and the ones in the flick don't have much to do ... Overall, this movie was very very disappointing... out of the 100 minutes, I'd say I was entertained for a maximum of 30... the rest was just bad....
2 out of 5 stars

That is the funniest thing I've heard all day...

I just got back and I liked at least as much as the first one. My only problem is s with all the current rap music it is going to seem dated in about 2 months.

You pretty much know what you're going to get with sequels to films like this (fast cars racing, faster car chases, and some eye candy on the sidelines), but it was a fun thrill ride. I thought Tyrese's character was hilarious in spots. Paul Walker's character is pretty much a blank stock character, but he had the good fortune of being in the first one, so he's carrying on the franchise for now.
Recommended as a matinee, and for knowing what it is.
I give it 2.5 stars or a grade of C+.

Just came back from it. If it wasn't for a few funny spots from Tyrese this movie would've been the sequal to Glitter.
Cars were good. If you wanna see this movie for the cars then go for it.
Movie itself, horrendous. Pretty cliche is you ask me, and some parts were just unrealistic. Such as...
Another thing, what happened to Jordana Bruester (sp?), ok I understand that they didn't sign her for this movie but did Brian just totally forget about her when he went to Miami? You lost your job for this girl and then you totally forget about her.
They say Bro and Cuz way too many times.
IMO, Tyrese saved this movie from being a total waste. Some of his lines were horrible but he pulled it off well.

I'm sure someone had watched a little too much south park before he posted...and didn't realize that Matt & Trey can get away with a lot more...because in print, tht stuff just doesn't come off as anything but cruel...
