Yes, this is THE best fast and furious movie, and I'm not arguing about it!!

The soundtrack is undoubtedly the highlight of the film. It’s a masterclass in genre-blending, seamlessly fusing early 2000s hip-hop, J-Pop, and electronic music. While the cars are the stars, the music provides the pulse, breathing life into the streets of Tokyo in a way the visuals couldn't do alone.

One reason this movie holds up is that Justin Lin insisted on practical effects. Unlike the CGI-heavy stunts of the recent films (where cars fly through buildings or into space), the drifting in Tokyo Drift was done by professional drivers, giving this movie a thrilling aspect that the other movies lack!

You can’t talk about this movie without talking about Han. While Sean Boswell is the protagonist, Han is the soul. Sung Kang plays him with a detached, snacks-in-hand coolness that felt entirely new to the franchise. He will always be my favourite character!

It was so smart to have a Vin Diesel cameo at the end. It perfectly ties the spin-off to the main movies!

Nathalie Kelley's Australian accent is so cute. I wish mine sounded that dainty!*
