I saw Faster. It is the first movie the Rock got to do, without having to "tone down" (as he did for all the Disney kiddy movies) and for faster, he was at his heaviest at 275 lbs ripped. The movie was very well produced, however, his character as being the younger weaker brother who was helpless as his older bro got shot and crying for mercy was kinda out of his character. Other than that, it was a great movie. And guess what, the website isn't bad either, look: http://fasterthemovie.com/ ;)

Well honestly I don't think I'm gonna like the Rock being in this movie. Maybe if he hadn't done "Race to Witch Mountain" with the two little kids that were supposed to be aliens, then I wouldn't mind so much. But still, the whole time you watch the movie you're gonna be like: hey, it's the Rock. The Rock can't be the character he plays, because you already know him too well as the Rock. You know?
Anyway I still might see this movie. I mean, I've seen all of the other ones. Let me state my opinions of these films:

F&F1: I liked watching it when I was young and really, who doesn't like fast cars and manual transmissions? Now I just like watching it with friends to make fun of the dumb parts: "[Danger to manifold] Shut up!" "Just tune the Nos timing and you'll run nice" "Harry, I need Nos." "I live my life a 1/4 mile at a time. For those ten seconds or less (OR LESS) I'm free" etc.

F&F2: Didn't like it. Trashed the two good cars (the Yenko and the R/T). Didn't like the puke yellow Evo or the purple/silver Eclipse convertible. The semi-ridiculous plot believe it or not was almost too much. almost. Let's not even talk about that "EMP" harpoon gun the cops had.

F&F3: Liked: Monte Carlo, S-15, RX-7 with insane body. Disliked: Lil' Bow Wow. Rolling the Monte. (Imagine if he hadn't rolled it and just kept racing around town with that for the rest of the movie!)

and finally:
F&F4: Liked it. The plot was more serious, the cars were more serious, and for all of you anti ricer guys: the only Honda/Acura product I remember seeing was a mid-engine NSX. I don't know anyone who would hate an NSX.
The best part for me was that they used a Grand National. When's the last time you saw a G-Body in an action movie that WASN'T just sitting in traffic? I mean sure, it got banged up a bit, but at least they didn't demolish it like they keep doing to that '69/'70 Mutt Charger.

To put this huge post to a close: This is just like the new Top Gear on the history channel. Yea it could be better, but what else are we going to watch if we don't get the Speed Channel? Additionally, if no one watches this stuff, then it's gonna look like there's absolutely no market for automotive entertainment, and they won't even try anymore.
