Original Movie: 2 Fast 2 Furious

Man coming in with a negative opinion is interesting :(
Please do all of these, I need an excuse to actually watch them. I've only really seen videos *about* them. Still, there are things even I'd love to see your reaction to. Damn, everyone's got opinions on ... Fast and Furious of all things. How is "cars go brrr" SO contentious? lmao
Everyone's a critic now huh. I remember when we could watch movies for fun and not try to dissect the ins and outs. It's a turn your brain off movie and you tried watching it with your brain at full power which just led to nothing but negative comments the whole time. You're doing way too much plot fixing comments nowadays too and a lot of them don't make sense. Just chill and vibe with something it doesn't have to be a logical masterpiece.
I’ve noticed this trend growing as well. It takes a lot of enjoyment out of a viewing when it’s accompanied by fairly consistent negative and mocking comments. I just don’t see where the fun is in that type of mindset. Buy into a movie for what it is; or if you absolutely know it’s not your thing, avoid it.
I love that you're reacting to these movies as terrible as they are they are so much campy fun
The "nose rings" on the orange '70 Dodge Challenger are actually thin cables holding in hood pins. For a long time race cars used hood pins to hold their hoods on, and some car manufacturers offered hood pins as a "racey" factory option. Terrible movie, but fun reaction Nat!
This is the worst one in many ways, but it's still goofy fun cx
Yeah this is the worst one, but Tokyo Drift is pretty good. Then 5-7 are a lot of fun.
I really hope you're able to get through all of them 🙏 Looking forward to these uploads!
This movie did not age well. Damn
And yes, Miami is awful. Lived there 29 years. Leaving was the best decision I've ever made.
OH Nattie. If you think this movie was crazy, illogical, bad dialogue ... it doesn't get much better! It gets ridiculous and frankly, cartoonish. Like, defy the laws of physics with the power of "family" silly. Ye have been warned!
This franchise got SO much better when they embraced the cartoonish and ridonkulous! It's a shame it took five movies to get there 😄
I'm sorry Nat I tried watching made it to about 45 minutes. This dialog is so fucking cringe. But Tokyo Drift is my favorite.
Just make it to 5,6 and 7
fast five redeems it all
Love these!
I cringes so hard when Paul kept sayin "Cuh" it was fuckin awful 😂. Listen, these movies are only going to get worse, with like the exception of 1 or two, so get ready for that hot mess, atleast you can pull an "ejecto seato" if it gets bad lmao. Also weird that your version didn't have the end credit scene, its on mine.
Hang in there, Nat. We promise it gets better. lol Your patience will be rewarded.
I actually liked this one. Granted I was fresh out of high school and was in the demographic for it. But omg Tokyo Drift. I'm still burdened by that movie.
Ugh this was PAINful. Haha. Nats reaction was 100% relatable. 🤣
🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
GREAT reaction. On the Fast and Furious craziness 1 to 10 scale… 2 fast 2 furious is at like a 4. And if this reaction series doesn’t make it to Fast Five it’s a legit travesty and a tragedy. I will never recover.
The thing with the fast and furious is that Vin Diesel didn't want to do sequel at the time, not for fast and furious as Dominic Toretto, not for xXx as Xander Cage, not as Riddick after Pitch Black. He didn't want to be type cast and keep trying different roles.
Ja Rule turned down this movie because he thought he was "too big" for it. That's why Luda got the role.
That's actually hilarious if true. Bet he kicking himself now that his rap career been dead and Luda making bank with each sequel lol.
The best way to think about these earlier F&F movies is like the MCU before the Avengers assembled. We gotta get origin stories for the Fast Family before they go full comic book splash page.
My nostalgic heart loves 2 and 3 in this franchise even though they might be considered the weakest ones, but please keep the series going, they slowly turn into more of action movie style then racing. I will say Tokyo Drift has the best soundtrack of them all imo. Also even though the crew from the first movie aren't around, 2 and 3 are still part of the family😉
This is definitely generally considered the worst one. Tokyo Drift gets mixed reviews, because it's a completely different cast. However part 4 until like 7 are generally considered the best. So I hope you continue into those, even if you don't like Tokyo Drift a lot.
Hey Nat, so Tokyo Drift is a different cast but there's one member in particular who will be vital for the next movies (although it was released 3rd, Tokyo Drift is actually set after Fast 6) For credit scenes, I know I said the first one has a post-credit scene but it wasn't important and you didn't miss anything. Fast 5 has a mid-credit scene, Fast 6 has a post-credit (which relates to Tokyo Drift) and there's also post-credit scenes in 9 and 10.
Sorry but I'm not a fan, it's just not my kind of films, I'll keep watching as I enjoy Nats reactions. Sorry to all those who love these films.
"Fuhget about it, cuh!" is the greatest line in cinematic history.
On a scale of 1 to 10 it rates soft ice cream. Classic.
2 Fast is usually considered the worst of the series. The third film is a lot better IMO and is the first one directed by Justin Lin (who directed the best entries in my opinion) and the 4th one is when the "family" returns to the series.
There is no epilogue, there is a prelude to this one which shows Brian’s time leading up to Miami. Prolly find it on YouTube
After all the credits have rolled on the Blu-ray of the first movie, there is a very short scene of Vin Diesel showing that he is living down Mexico way 😊
from Tokyo Drift onwards the franchise ramps up in quality. I swear to god it's a bump in quality from here on. I promise.
I think the movies improve from here. All of them are pretty goofy, but the writing is better from what I remember later on
"The family" was definitely sorely missing from the franchise early on, but it comes back strong starting with Fast Five.
Hopefully the link works/posts and my apologizes in advance for A) the quality, it's not my work and B) to anyone else who may have already shared this or similar clip! Here is a clip I found on the YouTubes of "The Fast and The Furious" post credits scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y13VdusvUcQ Sorry that the quality isn't all that good and if I wasn't at work I could probably make a better clip for you from one of the DVD or Digital versions of the movie I own.
Tokyo is a decent movie on its own. It does have a whole new cast, but without spoiling specifics from later movies, they eventually do link it in with the rest of the series, and it actually works really well once you get the context. It's better than 2Fast for sure. After Tokyo is when the "family" begins and the story starts to come together, and then it's off to the races (pun intended).
I really hope you do consider to keep watching these, I always found 2 and 3 to be a bit goofy but still fun. 4-7 I really enjoy, 4 maybe being the worst of those but still good. They start getting more and more ridiculous but I don’t think it’s all that bad until 8. Still most of these are good movies you should try to enjoy as just some mindless fun
It’s no secret that these movies are ridiculous and obviously not the greatest but Nat’s biases always heavily influence her reactions. I’ve noticed for a long time that anytime she watches something that she’s heard a lot of good things about or a lot of not so good things about she heavily leans into that for the reaction. Don’t really mind either way myself just something I’ve noticed. Think she might enjoy these movies less than she otherwise would if she wasn’t coming in with biases. Again not to say they’re good movies but I find them pretty fun popcorn flicks with plenty of laughs and entertainment.
I agree
I hope she’ll watch the next few less biased than this one, like because she was expecting it to be bad she jumped to saying that things make no sense too often as opposed to having a little bit of patience and attention as usual…
Maybe things just dont make sense in these movies. Cant expect her to just get stupider before she watches something
Ugh, these movies are so ridiculous and dumb. They literally get to the point of driving cars between skyscrapers from window to window. So much better stuff to react to. Is it seriously the plan to do every single one of them?
Ridiculous and dumb is dropping spoilers because a content creator is watching something you don't want them to. If you don't like the series, there's no need for you to be in this thread.
Loved this one as a kid but that was before I actually got into filmmaking. Still... enjoyable-ish lol
Nat, if you'd like to compare and contrast other car centric movies check out the following three: 1. Le Mans(1971) Steve McQueen, 2. Ford v Ferrari 3. Talladega Nights The Ballad of Ricky Bobby - not sure if Will Ferrell is your type of humor.
I’ll be the Tokyo Drift defender. It’s the first one I saw so I have a kind of affection for it. Also as fun as the middle trilogy is it’s a mistake to actually think any of them are good. They are only relatively good which means you need Drift as your appetiser to set you up for four. Also that kid’s accent was worth the 10 dollars I probably paid for a ticket back in the day.
We appreciate you sticking through this one to get to the better ones lol
This one is one of my favourite for nostalgia reasons even though objectively it is cheesy and kind of badly made. There was a 6 minute prelude short film on YT they released that shows everything that happened to Brian between the first film and the second.
So are we doing this entire series without it being on another poll?
F&F wasn't in a poll, she just wants to watch as many of them as she can before she finds them too dumb so yeah there won't be any polls for these ones :)
Nat, one thing you should rememebr, is these movies are supposed to be chaotic as apposed to realistic. Just dumb fun and you can tell the cast has really enjoys being a part of them. Especially Paul Walker. I say, don't give up in them until after you watch the 7th and final film Paul Walker is in.
If the plan is to make a video of you reacting to all the movies as if you watched them in one sitting you should really be wearing the same outfit for every movie.
You can say what you want, this will always be my favorite fast and furious movie. And Tokyo Drift I will always dislike. Rewatched alot both of them... still the same opinion, Tokyo Drift to me has trigger points of extreme toxic masculinity that is actually presented as desired by women, while 2 fast 2 furious is just 2 very good friends enjoying a great time and having a wonderful bromance. And it's interesting but these dialogues to me seam more authentic than anything the movies delivered later. Edit: I also want to add there were a lot of scenes that you didn't understand and laughed about that actually were explained. Biggest example I guess is Veronica being wet, cause she swam a lil part to the boat.
Important things to know about the Fast & Furious movies: 1. Nothing is impossible and the more crazy a thing seems, the more likely it is to appear in one of them. 2. NOS will make any car go impossibly fast, impossibly quickly. 3. There's always a higher gear for them to change into :D
“I said forget about it cuhh” one of the best memes ever 🤣
This one's a lot of fun especially if you grew up in Miami. If anything is going to deter anyone it's Tokyo drift. With the exception of a fan favorite character we're introduced to it's the weakest in the franchise. The 4th is where the series becomes self aware.
First off, thanks for this reaction Nat 🙏. I beg you to not give up after Tokyo Drift if you don't enjoy it. Without spoiling anything, it doesn't have the original characters, but it plays a vital part for the future movies if you continue.
I'm not a Fast and Furious fan. Tokyo Drift does have a special place in my heart. Enjoy the vibes everyone.
From 4 onwards is when it starts to get consistent. It's like the Mission Impossible films.
This one's a lot of fun too. If anything is going to deter anyone it's Tokyo drift. The weakest in the franchise (with the exception of a fan favorite character we meet). The 4th movie is where the franchise becomes self aware.
I knew this was gonna be your thoughts lol please don't give up after Tokyo drift, fast and furious four through six are complete bangers, especially five! that's when the actual story picks up! I promise you'll enjoy those!
Tokyo Drift is probably the weakest one. This one, I saw with my father in the theaters right after high school. We both agreed that it was dumb fun, emphasis on the dumb! Although, I will say that compared to most of what passes for action movies today, I do appreciate the lack of CGI and the reliance on practical racing. That's something the franchise loses in the future as they view the laws of physics more as guidelines than hard rules.
I absolutely love this one, just pure chaos and idiocy - Perfect movie for when the brain needs to be switched off :D
"Pockets ain't empty cuz."
One of his best lines ever! I'm "hungry" for more Fast and Furious!!
The fast and furious movies are a guilty pleasure for me. Hope you get until at least 7 to watch the evolution from car racing to basically superhero movies.
Happy Thursday Nat. Not watched this one for a while so I can't remember much about it 😊 Well if nothing else, that was certainly a lot of fun watching with you today 😄 No.4 is where the story starts again and you get some consistency with the cast and the style of movie, but they do get bigger and bigger as it goes on. Thanks for a fun reaction today Nat 💛
