DVD Description
This box set contains all four films.

The Fast And The Furious (Dir. Rob Cohen, 2001): Roaring along at breakneck speed, Dom (Vin Diesel) and his crew meet on the streets of L.A. each night to show off their high-powered racers. When new guy Brian (Paul Walker) wants to add his fuel to the fire, he can't getup the money to race, but offers up his car as collateral. In their tiny jacked compacts, Dom, Brian, and Edwin (Ja Rule) burst into a high-gear race with Brian nearly beating perennial champion Dom. But in the final moments, he loses the race and his car. Brian's debt is quickly cleared, however, when he saves Dom both from the cops and from a potentially violent encounter with Johnny Tran (Rick Yune), a rival gang lord. Dom takes Brian under his wing - a decision that disgusts his gang but delights his sister Mia (Jordana Brewster).

2 Fast 2 Furious (Dir. John Singleton, 2003): Now an ex-cop on the run, Brian O'Connor (Paul Walker) hooks into outlaw street racing. When the Feds strong-arm him back, O'Connor's no rules; win-or-die skills are unleashed against an international drug lord. With his velocity-addicted buddy (Tyrese) riding shotgun, and a drop-dead gorgeous undercover agent (Eva Mendes) dialling up the heat, 2 Fast 2 Furious accelerates the action into a desperate race for survival, justice... and mind blowing jaw-dropping speed.

The Fast And The Furious: Tokyo Drift (Dir. Justin Lin, 2006): Shaun Boswell has always been an outsider. A loner at school, his only connection to the indifferent world around him is through illegal street racing - which has made him particularly unpopular with the local authorities. To avoid jail time, Shaun is sent out of the country to live with his uncle in the military, in a cramped apartment in a low-rent section of Tokyo. In the land that gave birth to the majority of modified racers on the road, the simple street race has been replaced by the ultimate pedal-to-the-metal, gravity-defying automotive challenge... drift racing, a deadly combination of brutal speed on heart stopping courses of hairpin turns and switchbacks. For his first unsuccessful foray in drift racing, Shaun unknowingly takes on D.K., the "Drift King," with ties to the Yakuza, the Japanese crime machine. The only way he can pay off the debt of his loss is to venture into the deadly realm of the Tokyo underworld, where the stakes are life and death.

Fast & Furious (Dir. Justin Lin): Vin Diesel and Paul Walker re-team for the ultimate chapter of the franchise built on speed--Fast & Furious. Heading back to the streets where it all began, they rejoin Michelle Rodriguez and Jordana Brewster to blast muscle, tuner and exotic cars across Los Angeles and floor through the Mexican desert in the new high-octane action-thriller. When a crime brings them back to L.A., fugitive ex-con Dom Toretto (Diesel) reignites his feud with agent Brian O'Conner (Walker). But as they are forced to confront a shared enemy, Dom and Brian must give in to an uncertain new trust if they hope to outmaneuver him. And from convoy heists to precision tunnel crawls across international lines, two men will find the best way to get revenge: push the limits of what's possible behind the wheel.

Customer Reviews

High definition drift racing never looked this good!
I won't review the films as such, because you either love 'em or hate 'em. Everyone has their favourite FF movies already engraved in to the back of their minds. My thoughts is simply that the special effects and the feel of the fast speed driving experience improves with each film. personally I like all the films as much as one another. The first film was good fun, great characters and a solid start to the series. Feelings were divided on 2F2F but I thoroughly enjoyed it, Tyrese Gibson embraced the part, was a laugh a minute and Ludacris, Cole Hauser et al did a good job too. Tokyo Drift went into more detail on drifting and there was a lot more racing but the story was never compromised, the effects were stellar. Fast & Furious continued this trend of amazing effects, especially through the caves and the opening scene. It was a bit slow compared to the previous films, but the acting, performances and the few race scenes that there were in the film could have easily passed for the best racing scenes in the series. As with all films, the acting, the characters, story and effects are fantastic, they are trying to teach moral values, what I mean is they have a heart to them.

Now they have been released on Blu-Ray and over the past two days have enjoyed watching them in HD. There's no doubt about it folks, the picture quality here on all discs is absolutely jaw-dropping. It is quite simply buddy beer demo material, it is so good you want to show your mates what they are missing out on hanging on to their old DVD players for dear life. The colours are rich, pure, bright, not a speck in sight, no grain, just... wow, even the chics and the cars!! I swear the picture might as well be in 3D it bounces off the screen so much and just hits you in the face. I'm viewing on a 26" Samsung and it is awesome on that, so I can't wait to try it out on a bigger screen.

The audio is another winner, because all films are encoded in DTS-HD master audio, the surround placement is phenomenal, it uses all the surround channels and the sounds of cheering, tires screenching and exhausts blazing can be heard all around you. In fact, inside you!!! You'd swear you were actually there in the car with 'em. I have my VSX-LX60 Pioneer HD Reciever upsample the audio to 7.1 (with surround back) and for a film like this, it really helps, but 5.1 DTS-HD will be awesome anyway. They are so good, I really want to watch them again.

Universal have spared no expense to make the four FF films look and sound no different from one another and they succeed in every level. The films might not be everyone's cup of tea and you guys might have preferences to which one you like, but there is no denying that the flawless video and audio quality, it has to be a solid 5 star rating.

Roll on The Fast and the Furious: Fifth Gear, 2011 - can't wait!!
