The Fast and the Furious (2001)
Where was Keanu?
This film is thoroughly enjoyable, the effects are fantastic. I went into it blind, not knowing what to expect.
As soon as I realised that Brian was a cop, I started to think 'Point Break'... as the film went on, every twist and turn of the plot was expected as it was the same as happened in Point Break.
Basically this film IS Point Break, but with cars not surfboards. Don't get me wrong, still bloody good, but seen it all before, no surprises in the plot at all.
Vin Diesel is without fault, as ever. I am expecting big things from him in the future. Just hope he finds a more original film in which to show off his talent.
Do or Die (2001)
Gripping stuff
I was absolutely mesmerised by this series from the moment Tom Long walked into shot - the whole 'bad boy' thing, it was just addictive.
The story has you hooked, what will happen next - will Joey get the girl in the end, after doing 5 years in prison, and all that time thinking about his lost love, crossing paths with her again, finding he has a son... Although he is a violent bad guy, you still want him to find happiness.
A truly captivating two parter - please bring it out on video!
Dungeons & Dragons (2000)
D & D - stands for Dire and Dreadful
This film was just one long cliche, everything about it was unconvincing and predictable. I cannot comment anymore as I have just come from the cinema and I was so bored, that if I was not there with someone else relying on them for a lift home, I would have walked out.
