    Bringing her back would make fast and furious 4 stupid, because the whole thing was about Torreto getting revenge for Letty...

    Might just give this movie a chance. I'm interested to see what Justin Lin take on The Terminator and hopefully he'll be able to revive that.

    For some reason I went into this movie expecting something more than the typical fast and furious stuff. Didn't really get that but still enjoyed it all the same. The girls looked good and The Rock made for a nice addition.

    Great movie, the only criticism is there wasn't much street racing and they cut out some parts where they could have shown some.

    Besides that, awesome movie!!! Go see it!

    Yeah dude, Street Racing has been done to death in the Fast/Furious Franchise.. It was awesome that they went with a new formula, bringing a street team to do a heist and adding The Rock was a huge addition to the series... The Action was spectacular especially the last 15 mins of the movie and I know the nerds will complain and b**** that the vault chase is unrealistic then again what is in movie land???

    Great movie. Paul Walker still can't act. Movie was very clearly sponsored by Dodge. Didn't see a single Mustang or Camaro.

    Anyone know what the cars that Tyrese and Ludacris had at the end? The one that there are only four of in the world? McLaren?

    Wow, huge money for this movie. $165m worldwide.

    Not a fan at all of this series, but I watched this movie and enjoyed it. It was entertaining enough. I'll actually watch the next one if there is one

    Tokyo Drift was underrated and I think its 2nd best next to the debut. Part 2 was freakin terrible with Tyrese. Don't care for all of the others but this new one is worth checking out. Hans FTMFW. A lot of girls think he's hott and people say I look like him, so I'm a little bias.

    Yeah I don't get some of the hate for Tokyo Drift...it was a nice surprise. The racing was good, the story serviceable, the acting not any worse than the other installments and it gave us one of the best characters in the series.

    Maybe because it didn't have Walker and Vin Diesel (only small cameo), It's kinda like a spin off show from the original storyline. I actually saw Tokyo drift before all the other ones and loved it, especially the racing and Han. I always thought Tokyo drift was the best one out of the first four, even though it didn't really connect with the main storyline.

    I'm hoping they bring Han back again in the next installment.
