Semua psti tau donk film The Fast and The Furious

yup, sampe skrg nih film punya 3 sekuel + 1 yg terbaru taun ini.

Kita ulas dari sekuel pertamanya,


1. The Fast and The Furious

Sinopsis (terjemahin sendiri, bingung. hahaha) :

A group of Honda Civics are being used to hijack semi-trailer trucks and take their contents. Later on, the chief of police tells Brian (Paul Walker), who is really a cop with the false name of Brian Earl Spilner that the truckers are about to arm themselves and take things into their own hands, but will hold off to let the police try and handle it.

He tries to get in with a group of people led by Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel). Dominic runs a grocery shop and a garage where he does tune ups. Vince (Matt Schulze) gets into a fight with Brian which Dominic breaks up and tells Brian not to come back. Brian shows up again at a street race and bets his car that he will win. Though close, Dominic just beats him as Brian's pistons explode. The police then come to break up the race. Everyone flees, but Brian stays around and picks Dominic up, gaining his good graces. They are accosted by a rival Vietnamese car shop lead by Johnny Tran, who later blows up Brian's car as a warning not to come onto their turf. Afterwards they go to Torreto's house where he tells Brian that he owes him a ten-second car.

Soon, Brian gets inside the Toretto clan. He falls in love with Dominic's sister, Mia (Jordana Brewster), and begins tuning up while finding out more information. The skid marks of the Honda Civics show a brand of tires, which leads him to inspect Hector's (Puton Gugliemi) garage, a local racer and friend of Toretto. When Brian goes into his shop late at night to check out the cars, the tires don't correspond to the tires on the Civics. He gets knocked out and later finds Vince pointing a shotgun at his face. Dominic appears out of the shadows telling him to be sure about what he says. Vince begins to rave on about Brian being a cop but he denies it and says that he can't lose another race and was checking everyone's cars out. Dominic, Vince, and Brian then break into Tran's shop while Jesse is on look out. They find a stack of DVD players and several cars without engines. Tran later comes in with his gang and beats the mechanic over there while pouring oil all over his face over the missing engines in the cars.

Brian reports his findings to his superiors, but they soon notice he's getting close with Toretto, growing wary of Brian. After another truck hijacking occurs, the police move in and arrest all the members of Tran's gang, but find that the players were legally purchased and that they are not the ones doing the hijackings. Brian's superior tells him about the truckers arming themselves and that it has to be Toretto doing it, giving him a sudden deadline. Brian casually asks Toretto that whatever he is doing, he wants in on it as well. Toretto agrees as long as Brian wins the upcoming Race Wars.

During Race Wars, Toretto's friend Jesse races his Volkswagen Jetta against Johnny Tran's Honda S2000 for pink slips and loses. In a state of panic, he drives away from the race. During the night, Toretto and the rest of the clan drive out. Brian confesses to Mia that he's a cop and tells her that the truckers are now armed. He convinces her to come with him to save her brother and his friends.

They trace his cell phone and track him down. Toretto pulls out the Honda Civics to make one last truck jacking. While pulling the job, Toretto notices the truck driver is armed with a shotgun. Vince's arm is trapped in the wire as Letty and Toretto try to rescue him. Letty's Civic soon flips over and Dominic soon skids off the road. Brian catches up and gets Vince off. Brian phones in for air patrol, revealing to Toretto his serial number and that he is a cop. Vince is taken to a hospital, and Toretto and Mia drive off angrily.

Brian confronts Toretto at his house. When Jesse comes back, Johnny Tran and his cousin show up to pull off a drive-by, killing Jesse in the process. Brian and Dominic drive out to go after them. Dominic forces one cycle to flip over using his 1970 Dodge Charger. Brian successfully shoots Tran, killing him. They then find themselves at an intersection and engage in a street race. As a train approaches, both cars manage to speed up and pass the tracks as the train barrels down on them. Dominic is then sideswiped by an unexpected truck and his car flips over. Brian then goes to check on Dominic. Suddenly, they notice that the cops are coming. Knowing Dominic will be arrested when they arrive, Brian gives his keys to Dominic, saying, "I owe you a ten-second car." Brian then allows Dominic to escape.

After the credits end, there is a scene that shows Toretto driving around Baja, Mexico.

2. 2 Fast 2 Furious

Sinopsis :

Brian O'Conner (Paul Walker), the disgraced cop from the first film, is on the run because he let Dominic Toretto (played by Vin Diesel) escape. He comes to Miami to start a new life. Here he makes new friends Tej Parker (Chris 'Ludacris' Bridges) an ex-street racer and well-known car tuner Jimmy (Jin) as well as Suki (Devon Aoki) - also a street racer. O'Connor is now known by his street name "The Bullet", and competes with fellow street racers in high stakes races to win money utilizing the skills he learned as a member of Toretto's now disbanded team.

One night after winning a race, he is caught by US Customs agents after his car is disabled by the fictional harpoon-like ESD (Electronic Disruption Device) that is deployed by US Customs Agent Markham (James Remar). He is arrested and his former boss FBI Agent Bilkins makes a deal with him saying that if he accepts to take part in a mission, his criminal record will be wiped clean.


O'Connor and Bilkins then travel to Barstow, California where O'Connor proposes the deal to his childhood friend and ex-con Roman Pearce (Tyrese Gibson). Together their mission involves working undercover as street racers for a South American (Argentine) drug lord - Carter Verone (Cole Hauser), with help from Monica Fuentes (Eva Mendes) an undercover U.S. Customs agent who becomes Carter's love interest. They win a highly charged "audition" race and strike a deal with Verone, who stated, "Drive the package to the Keys and I'll personally hand over 100Gs($100,000) at the finish line". Roman Pearce requests that the prize be $100,000 for both himself and O'Connor.

This leads to several scuffs and car sequences throughout the movie, along with some spectacular car races. During the course of the movie O'Connor and Pearce begin to realize the major trouble they are in and ask Tej to arrange a race for "pink slips" with two of the racers from the audition race earlier in the movie; O'Connor and Pearce win Korpi's 1969 Yenko Camaro and Darden's 1970 Challenger R/T.

Later on that night O'Connor and Pearce arrive at Verone's nightclub so Verone can "persuade" a police detective named Whitworth into keeping the local police away from O'Connor and Pearce so they may transport the money (which involves using a champagne bucket to cover a huge rat on Whitworth's chest and using a blow torch to have the rat scratch and bite Whitworth). The next morning they embark on the mission in their Mitsubishis with Verone's money in the trunks and two of his henchmen riding along. During the transportation of Verone's money the corrupt Detective Whitworth calls in the army of police units he has waiting nearby. During the chase they lead the police to a warehouse complex. The police surround the front of the garage area so O'Connor's and Pearce's street racer friends create a "scramble" diversion allowing O'Connor and Pearce to sneak away in the Camaro and Challenger continuing their mission. First to be driven out from the garage were 4 new Dodge Rams to ram the police cars, then hundreds of cars, including O'Connor and Pearce. As the drama unfolds, Verone tries to escape aboard his yacht after informing Monica that he knew she was an undercover U.S. Customs agent. While aboard the yacht he scolds her on her slip-up for informing U.S. Customs agents about Verone's intention to flee the country via a secluded airfield. The finale occurs with O'Connor's Camaro jumping off of a nearby ramp and landing on the top of the yacht to save Monica. At the end Verone is arrested and the duffle bags carrying his drug money are recovered, save for an undisclosed amount having been secretly stolen by both O'Connor and Pearce.


Sekuel ke-3, gak ada hubungannya sm sekuel 1 maupun 2, tp ada salah 1 tokoh The Fast and The Furious yg muncul, tebak sendiri pada endingnya :).

3. The Fast and The Furious : Tokyo Drift

Sinopsis :

Sean (Lucas Black) starts a normal school day minding his own business. On his way home he is given a compliment about his car by the girlfriend of the school football team's quarterback. Furious about the fact that another guy is speaking to his girlfriend, the quarterback, and his posse, attempt to start a fight. Sean responds by sliding a wrench (stolen from a mechanic class) out of his sleeve into his hand . The quarterback's girlfriend, seeing what is about to happen, intervenes by proposing that they settle their differences with a race, with her as the grand prize.

A residential area that is still in development is decided as the race location and the premise is simple, first out the other side wins. After a long race the both of them get badly injured.

Deciding not to deal with moving again, Sean's mother sends him to Tokyo to live with his father, stationed in Japan as a U.S. Naval officer, after his incident in the United States almost lands him in jail. Sean is introduced into the world of drifting after a chance encounter with another expert and fellow army brat, Twinkie (Bow Wow), a hustler who sells American goods to the Japanese.

However, Sean soon runs into Takashi (Brian Tee), also known as DK (short for Drift King), and his business partner and close friend Han (Sung Kang), who was born and raised in America. Sean is seen by Takashi talking to Neela (Nathalie Kelley), Takashi's then girlfriend, and when Takashi tells him to back down, Sean challenges him to a race using Han's car, where Takashi ends up winning in a blowout – and Sean totaling Han's car. Afterwards, Han tells Sean that he will be working with him to pay off the car as well as representing him in future races. Sean later finds out more about his friends, namely Han, being involved in a business partnership with Takashi. Sean also finds out Han is letting him race because he is the only one who isn't afraid of Takashi, causing Han to refer to him as Takashi's 'kryptonite'.

Sean slowly gains a reputation in the drifting scene after some tutelage and support (both financial and friendship) from Han and his gang of "misfits." Sean also gets involved with Neela, spending time with her drifting for fun up a mountain, and his budding relationship with her puts him at odds with Takashi. Neela tells Sean that she and Takashi grew up together after her mother died, and, like Sean, she was considered an outcast. Takashi beats up Sean after seeing him with Neela, threatening him to stay away from her. Neela sees Sean's bruises and leaves Takashi in anger to be with Sean.

Takashi's uncle, Kamata, a high ranking Yakuza (portrayed by Sonny Chiba), told him that there is a discrepancy in the books, and that Han must be cheating them out of money. Takashi confronts Han and his group with this discrepancy, and Han, Sean, and Neela flee before Takashi deals with the money laundering. A car chase ensues through the Tokyo streets, with Takashi chasing Han, and Morimoto chasing Sean. Morimoto tries to wreck Sean , but a car comes at him in his lane , and he drives to the next lane and collides with another , presumably killing Morimoto. However Takashi saw Morimotos car in a massive car pile up , then as he catches up to Sean , he tries to wreck Sean however is unsuccessful after Han slows him down. Later, Takashi shoots at Han throughout the chase. Han drives across a junction and is hit by a Mercedes S Class, causing Han's car to flip over. Han's car starts to leak gasoline from the crash, while Han is unable to move from his injuries. As Sean and Neela finally catch up to Han, the gasoline leaked from the car reaches a nearby fire, triggering an explosion and killing Han. Sean and Neela go back to Sean's father's house, and Takashi comes to take Neela and kill Sean, but Sean's father threatens Takashi with his own gun. Neela voluntarily goes away with Takashi.

Sean attempts to make amends by appealing to Takashi's uncle, returning the money Han stole and offering to an "honor race", a duel where whoever loses is run out of town. The race is on a touge (mountain pass) that Takashi has the advantage on, since he's supposedly the only one to ever make it down to the bottom in one piece. Sean, Twinkie, and Han's crew borrow Sean's father's car, a 1967 Ford Mustang Fastback, and work on it. Since all the other cars were taken by the police, Sean and his team use the engine from the first car Sean had wrecked.

After a long race battle, Sean wins the race by making his way across the finish line, while Takashi survives a last-minute crash. Takashi's loss causes him to suffer a humiliating defeat at the hands of Sean, whom Takashi still considers an "outsider". Takashi's uncle tells Sean he is free to go, and Takashi presumably leaves Tokyo. Later, Neela gets back with Sean.

Later, Sean is the new Drift King and is hanging out in the underground parking lot from earlier in the film with his girlfriend Neela. Twinkie comes up to Sean, saying someone wants to challenge him, which Sean accepts only after finding out the challenger knew Han. The mystery car driver who pulls up is none other than Dominic Toretto (portrayed by Vin Diesel, from the first The Fast and the Furious movie). Toretto and Sean hold a brief conversation, with Toretto saying that Han once rode with him. Neela counts off the race, the cars take off, and the movie ends without disclosing the race results.

Yup, itu 3 sekuel awal, dan sekuel terbarunya :

4. The Fast and The Furious

Sinopsis :

After a successful run at hijacking fuel tanks on the lowways of Bani/Punta Cana Dominican Republic, Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) has become an international criminal. Dominic's partner Han (Sung Kang) departs for Tokyo. With an increasing pressure from the police, Dom leaves Letty (Michelle Rodriguez) not wanting her to be caught with him. Years later, Letty is found murdered in her wrecked car, bullet in the brain. At the scene of her murder, Dom finds traces of nitromethane residue that can only be purchased at one tuner shop in L.A.. At the body shop, he finds one of his old racing counterparts that, after being coerced, leads him to a man named David Park. Dominic finds Park and hangs him out of a window threatening to drop him and vowing to kill anyone that stands in his way of avenging Letty. He receives the information that only through a street race, arranged by Ramon Campos, can he gain access to the man responsible for Letty's death.

Meanwhile, Brian O'Connor (Paul Walker)—now an FBI agent, is assigned to track down a notorious drug lord named Arturo Braga. Brian, after chasing down a criminal on foot, receives information also leading to David Park. Both Dominic and Brian, having received the same information are led to the underground entrance race that guarantees them a spot on the team that traffics heroin across the United States-Mexico border. During the race, Dominic and Brian outlast all of their competitors until the two of them remain and head towards the finish line neck and neck, Dominic sideswipes Brian's car causing him to swerve out of control, ensuring that he comes in first, securing his spot on the team so that he can seek justice on Letty's behalf. Having lost the race, Brian uses his influence at the FBI to ensure that one of the other members on Braga's team, Dwight Mueller, gets arrested for "distribution of methamphetamine," in order to usurp his spot of the team. At a party, Ramon Campos, Braga's right hand man, welcomes them to the team and gives them a GPS that will alert them to where they will begin their race. Dominic ends up in a confrontation with a racer identified as Fenix, the driver of the car that collided with Letty before firing the shot that killed her.

Dominic and Brian both receive the coordinates to meet with Campos and are transported, along with their cars by semi-trailer to the Mexican border to receive the heroin that they are to transport, from there they are to follow Fenix's lead to the other side through an underground tunnel so they aren't seen by the satellite images and forward looking infrared used to monitor the borders. After the transport, Dominic realizes that the drivers are thought of as disposable and that after successful trafficking of the product they are shot and killed in order to avoid paying them. Letty, having been in the same situation was the only driver to get away when they attempted to shoot her, it was the pursuit that led to the car crash and subsequent shooting causing her death. Dom anticipated the double-dealing because of the warning given by Gisele, Braga's liason, in the form of the Spanish phrase "vaya con Dios", set his car to explode by discharging nitrous oxide with the spark from the cigarette lighter in his car after he learns from Fenix that he was responsible for killing Letty with no remorse. Brian hijacks one of the Hummers carrying the heroin, escaping the gunfire, and head back to the U.S., where Dominic learns that Brian was contacted by Letty who agreed to infiltrate and collect information leading to Braga in exchange for clemency for Dominic. Brian speaks to his superiors about a plan that he has devised to trade the heroin for Braga if they will pardon Dominic.

An exchange is arranged with Campos, 6 million dollars for the heroin, provided that Braga be the one to deliver the money personally. The FBI is poised to arrest Braga at the exchange site, however, Dominic and Brian both realize that Campos is in fact Braga before the FBI does and the raid is botched. Braga evades capture and flees over the Mexican border out of the FBI's jurisdiction. Brian and Dominic head after Braga on their own and find him in a cathedral praying for salvation. They kidnap Braga with intent to take him back to the United States where he can be tried and imprisoned for drug trafficking, but after having taken him captive they are chased by Braga's henchmen. The chase leads to the same underground tunnels that they went through in order to transport the drugs into the United States. Once on the United States side of the border, Dominic kills Fenix by crushing him with his car and Braga is finally apprehended by the FBI, as is Dominic.

Dominic is tried for his crimes and, though Brian appealed to the courts on his behalf, is sentenced to "25 years to life without the possibility of early parole." The movie concludes with Dom being transported in a prison bus to the Lompoc Penitentiary, with Brian, Mia, Tego and Rico suddenly appearing in three stealthy black cars for an interception.
