Description
The sequel to the racing smash THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS may not have Vin Diesel as its star but it burns with even higher octane than its predecessor and a lot less extraneous drama. Back in action is undercover cop Brian OConnor (Paul Walker) whose career has hit the skids since he let Diesels character escape at the last films end. He has sunk in status and is now a fringe dweller on the Miami street racing scene. A chance at redemption arrives when the fuzz recruits him to investigate Carter Vellone (Cole Hauser) a top-dog street racer with dangerous drug connections. OConnor recruits his bickering childhood pal (model/singer Tyrese) now a nitro-burning ex-con from the Diesel school of toughness to help him pull the bad guys to the curb with a tyre-spinning vengeance. BR John Singleton (BOYZ IN THE HOOD HIGHER LEARNING) directed and obviously had great fun delivering a straight-up racing thriller thats free of the message-bearing pressure of being a John Singleton film. 2 FAST fairly roars off the screen with comic book exuberance and a cheerful disregard for anything that gets in the way of its forward momentum. Best of all is Tyrese a natural laid-back star--hes not afraid to poke fun at his own shirtless model-boy image and amply compensates for the mighty Vins absence. Rapper Ludacriss is also memorable as OConnors mechanic as is model Devon Akoi as a cute female racer.
