Review of The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006) by Eric J — 28 Jan 2013
Lucas Black is no Paul Walker. That says a lot right there. Lucas Black has as much ability to carry a lead role in a movie as I do. Hayden Christiansen emotes better than he does. He's so bad that my previous like of the FF movies despite all sorts of bad acting was ruined in this one.
The bad acting in the previous films consisted of overthetop cheese from Paul "Yo pockets ain't empty" Walker, Vin "you never had your car" Diesel and Tyrese "I'm hungry" Gibson. they were basically caricatures with enormously bad roles made adequate by going too far with the dialogue. Black undersells it like every other role he's had. The quiet boy from Alabama is not the guy that should be going to Tokyo to learn how to drift with the pros.
Meh, it still kept most of the formula together. Cool cars and hot women. Just bad lead actors this time.
