Critics Consensus

Sleek and shiny on the surface, The Fast and the Furious recalls those cheesy teenage exploitation flicks of the 1950s.

The best movie since The Godfather. Cannot be topped. Reminds me of 12 angry men. Just brutally clever, surprisingly endearing, and devastatingly cruel. Love. Must see of the summer.

"The Fast and the Furious" might have some insufferably bad moments, but when it decides to take itself a bit more seriously, it can be a seriously entertaining action flick.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

This is a bad, bad movie. Skip it.

Todd McCarthy

Variety

A gritty and gratifying cheap thrill, Rob Cohen's high-octane hot-car meller is a true rarity these days, a really good exploitationer, the sort of thing that would rule at drive-ins if they still existed.

Reece Pendleton

Chicago Reader

While few of the paper-thin characters register long enough to make much of an impression, Diesel carries the movie with his unsettling mix of Zen-like tranquillity and barely controlled rage.

Alan Jones

Radio Times

Cohen's fast-paced, stylish direction pushes the hot and heavy excitement to the maximum, making the breakneck auto races, high-octane hijacks and crash-bang cop chases absolutely electrifying to watch.

Rated: 4/5

Deep Focus Review

Director Rob Cohen's film feeds his audience junk food from a recipe of high-speed cars, decorative women, and lame action.
