You'll need to suspend your disbelief to enjoy 'Tokyo Drift'
Can street racing solve complex social problems? The expats and locals in Tokyo Drift think it can.
This is a film for ages 14 to 24...and those who love cars and the sound of pistons firing. The rest of the population should stay away or wait for the DVD release.
I for one, enjoyed the pace, the Tokyo angle on a well-worn story, and the cars. Yes, I did have to suspend my disbelief more than a reasonable amount. But, it was fun. The opening scene wastes no time getting into some serious street action. If you were a fan of the first two films in the Fast and Furious series, don't miss the last five minutes of the film. There is a a payoff dedicated just to you.
If you are dragged to this film against your will, you might try squinting real hard to convince yourself that Tokyo Drift has something in common with classic teen/car films such as Rebel Without A Cause.
