Like the high-revving imports and American muscle cars that roar down the streets of its south Florida setting, 2 Fast 2 Furious is tricked out to the max. While Vin Diesel opted for his XXX franchise, this obligatory sequel to The Fast and the Furious benefits from Diesel's absence, allowing returning star Paul Walker to shine while forging a lively partnership with rising star Tyrese, who fulfills his sidekick duties with more vitality than Diesel could ever muster. The Miami/Dade locations are another bonus, lending colorful backdrop to the most dazzling street-racing sequences (both real and digitally composited) ever committed to film. The plot is disposable--former cop Walker and jailbird Tyrese are recruited by the FBI to dethrone a thuggish kingpin (Cole Hauser)--but director John Singleton keeps the adrenalin pumping, enlisting a rainbow coalition of costars (including rapper Ludacris and Chanel supermodel Devon Aoki) to combine a hip-hop vibe with full-blown action while showcasing hot babes, edgy humor, and some of the coolest cars that ever burned rubber. Heed the movie's warning, kids: Let the stuntmen do the driving. --Jeff Shannon

When reviewing a movie like John Singleton's "2 Fast 2 Furious", the sequel to 2001's "The Fast and the Furious", the level of absurdity and ridiculousness is irrelevant. If I were to launch a scathing attack on the picture citing its thin story, one-dimensional characters, and lack of dialogue as the reason for my distaste towards it, I would be the dumb one. This is a film that delivers exactly what it promises and I have to admire it for that reason.
Vin Diesel, who shot to fame after starring in the original, chose not to return to the franchise, but Paul Walker is back as Brian O'Connor, the former Los Angeles undercover cop who let Diesel go free at the end of the first installment. Now in Miami, a dishonored Brian becomes once again embroiled in the world of illegal street racing that is as usual populated with car loads of hot babes, bad guys, and masses of extras on the sidelines. Despite his poor record, O'Conner is confronted by the police who promise to clear his name if he goes undercover as the driver of an evil drug lord named Carter Verone (Cole Hauser) whose main function in the story is to convincingly set up a series of outlandish set pieces and provide the good characters with offers they can't refuse.
While Diesel's character is missed, the screenwriters have supplied Walker with another fiery foil in Roman Pearce, played with great vigor by Tyrese Gibson. Also along for the ride is Monica Fuentes, a sexy customs agent played by Eva ... Read More

Sequel to 2001's The Fast and the Furious but this time it's a buddy movie, with Paul Walker's now former cop turned illegal road racer going undercover on behalf of the FBI with his ex-con friend Tyrese to bring down a notorious Miami drug dealer in exchange for both himself and Tyrese getting their names cleared. As usual there are lots of fast cars, a lot of fast driving and silly stunts but nonetheless this is a fairly dull film. Vin Diesel is noticeably absent from this sequel, which might explain why. A so-so sequel.

Out of all the sequels that came out in the summer of 2003 I have to say the one I was the most excited about was 2 Fast 2 Furious. I remeber W]walking out of an advance screening and among the crowd I saw the film many of us were saying better than the first, they didn't need Vin etc etc. John Singleton who for the record is a much better director than Rob Cohen has crafted a film that non race fans, fans of the first and those in in the mood for a good time can all enjoy. The film starts with an nice litte race between four characters in the movie and we then have our plot set up. Brian (Paul Walker) is promised a clean record if he helps the Feds bring down Carter Verone (Cole Hauser). Brian agress only if his old friend Roman Pearce (Tyrese Gibosn) can help him. What then follows is full of eye candy in the form of cars , beautiful women and action sequences. A lot of people don't want to see this moive because it lacks the Diesel but who cares he's gone there isn't one mention of Domonic Toretto or anyone from the first film for that matter. This is Brian's story but once again his costar and sidekick Tyrese steals this movie from him. Ludacris also does a great job in his first big movie and has more than five mintues of screen time unlike Ja Rule in the first film. All in all a fun film that truly is what summer movie are about having fun. Leave your ambitions and doubts at the door and just go in and have fun with this one .

Fans of the first film, THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS, may have felt that what it offered was nothing more than a career boost to co-star Vin Diesel. The fact is that it was a fun filled roller coaster ride that film goers flocked to. Hollywood, never one to not notice something like this, did what had to be done. They made this sequel.
Now sequels are never looked upon very well by most critics. It is the rare occasion when they find any praise whatsoever. And as they go, this movie isn't quite as good as the original. But it still retains the fun and entertainment level of the first, sacrificing only a fraction of the serious undertones seen there.
Having aided a felon escape at the end of the first film, officer Brain O'Connor (Paul Walker) is now on the run. Taking his tricked out car and heading down the road, he makes his way across the USA towards Miami. Using his driving ability, he picks up cash along the way as well as when he hits the south Florida streets. A bust after an illegal street race (using state of the art technology that shuts down a cars electric system), Brian is offered a chance to avoid jail time AND have his record wiped clean.
All he has to do is go undercover again and find out how drug runner Carter Verone (Cole Hauser) is laundering the money he makes. With an agent already in deep cover, they assign a newbie to Brian. Demonstrating how inept he is, Brian insists on recruiting his own backup.
