Sean Boswell (Lucas Black) always feels like an outsider, but he defines himself through his victories as a street racer. His hobby makes him unpopular with the authorities, so he goes to live with his father in Japan. Once there and even more alienated, he learns about an exciting, but dangerous, new style of the sport. The stakes are high when Sean takes on the local champion and falls for the man's girlfriend.

Critics Consensus

Eye-popping driving sequences coupled with a limp story and flat performances make this Drift a disappointing follow-up to previous Fast and Furious installments.

This third outing made me almost nostalgic for the original movie starring Vin Diesel and Paul Walker. Almost.

Whizzily underwhelming...

The Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift is another dismal chapter in a franchise that started promisingly enough with Rob Cohen's rebel-with-too-much-horse-power-but-lots-of-chicks.

Deep Focus Review

0.5/4

Racing scenes, the only reason people endure this franchise’s bad scripts and worse acting, are filmed unintelligibly fast and enhanced by generic computer effects.

4/10

Fully embracing car culture, yet without the over-the-top slang abused in the previous picture, this third chapter wisely dispenses with the undercover cop missions.

This entry lacks due to Sean being the least interesting character in the film, but it also finds success by featuring some of the very best racing scenes of the entire franchise.

Rating: 78%. I enjoyed this movie a lot. I love Tokyo and the drift scence there. I don't really know why they decided to do an all-new cast, but this was a fun movie with epic scenes. I will say these characters are supposed to be seniors in high school, but all look 30. The drifting aspect was a cool addition and the music was fun. Dialogue could be better, but you can't expect too much from Fast and Furious. One of the better movies in the series.

Unfortunately, all the potential of a movie about Tokyo races and the drift culture was wasted here. Not even talking about the plot...

You have to just watch this movie and not pay attention to anything other than the races. The drifting is cool, and that is literally all you’re getting from this movie. Not even hot women.

One of the best movies I’ve ever seen, I’m a car guy so seeing the rx-7 and Han’s character throughout the movie was great.
