Pre-Interval -
After allowing a fugitive Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) to evade police arrest, the former LAPD officer Brian O’Conner (Paul Walker) is on the run from LAPD and FBI for his actions.
He flees the city to have a fresh start and travels across the U.S., on the way he enters different drag races, winning large sums of money.
The police are finally able to locate Brian after issuing a country-wide manhunt against him which forces him to flee on foot.
He finally decides to settle in Miami where he meets Tej Parker (Ludacris), an ex-street racer who runs his own garage.
Movie Plot -
Settling in Miami, Brian O’Conner makes a living through street racing.
He meets Tej who organizes local street races and calls Brian who goes on to win the race and gives some share of his winnings to Tej as a gesture of gratitude.
Brian is caught by agents of U.S. customs and is then given a deal to go undercover in order to take down drug lord Carter Verone (Cole Hauser) in exchange for his criminal record to be purged.
Brain agrees and partners with his ex-con friend Roman Pearce (Tyrese Gibson).
On the day of mission, Brian and Roman begin to transport duffel bags containing Verone’s money with two men of Verone watching over them.
The police are called and a high-speed chase ensues.
After finally having their criminal records pardoned, Brian and Roman ponder what to do now.
They also reveal that they stole some of Verone’s money which would be more than good enough for their life.
Verdict -
This is an excellent movie full of thrilling scenes and a must watch for those who love action movies. It constantly keeps you at the edge of your seat.
Even though Vin Diesel was not in this movie yet his absence wasn’t felt. Thanks especially to Tyrese Gibson who ‘owned’ this flick.
