Racing scenes, the only reason people endure this franchise’s bad scripts and worse acting, are filmed unintelligibly fast and enhanced by generic computer effects.

| Original Score: 0.5/4 | Sep 4, 2023

Fully embracing car culture, yet without the over-the-top slang abused in the previous picture, this third chapter wisely dispenses with the undercover cop missions.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Aug 9, 2023

This entry lacks due to Sean being the least interesting character in the film, but it also finds success by featuring some of the very best racing scenes of the entire franchise.

In lesser hands, Tokyo Drift could've been the series' early death knell, but Justin Lin's confident, propulsive direction makes it a fun, and ultimately necessary, adjunct.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 4, 2021

...all Fast and Furious films deliver the goods to their spiralling core audience, Tokyo Drift is the best stand-alone film in the franchise...

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 24, 2021

The film is both hindered by and benefits from the stylized but disconnected directing style of Justin Lin.

| Original Score: 2.0/4.0 | Sep 7, 2020

The script, if we can call it that, is full of stupidities. [Full Review in Spanish]

With nary a cheap, under-powered motor in sight, this hairpinning if hare-brained sequel goes about its tyre-squealing business with reckless aplomb.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 31, 2019

Not only does the visual style evolve to be less cartoonish in its power zooms, but the sense of humor finds a happy medium between The Fast and the Furious' severity and 2 Fast 2 Furious' all-out comedy.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Mar 31, 2019

Following 'The Fast and the Furious' and its sequel, '2 Fast 2 Furious', speed fans are in for a treat with this third instalment of action and destruction.

| Mar 31, 2019

As with the two previous "F&F" films, "Tokyo Drift" is mainly an adolescent fantasy about big, brassy, belching cars and bodacious babes.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 31, 2019

Many races ensue, but Drift remains strictly for motorheads.

| Mar 31, 2019

This third outing made me almost nostalgic for the original movie starring Vin Diesel and Paul Walker. Almost.

| Mar 31, 2019

It made me want to book a trip to Japan then do doughnuts in a subdivision.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Mar 31, 2019

Whizzily underwhelming...

| Mar 31, 2019

Closer in spirit to the stylish 2001 original than the more contrived sequel, Tokyo Drift does just what it says on the tin: the locale is exotic and the race scenes are fast and furious, as are the women.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 31, 2019

The continent shift provides little more than window dressing.

| Mar 29, 2019

The Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift is another dismal chapter in a franchise that started promisingly enough with Rob Cohen's rebel-with-too-much-horse-power-but-lots-of-chicks.

| Mar 29, 2019

The movie var-rooms on, through its sequence of ear-splitting, knuckle-biting, artery-thumping yet eerily emotion-free races. Ho-hum.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 26, 2018

Considered the red headed stepchild of the 'Fast and Furious' franchise, but beyond the obvious missteps, it's a very fun outing that truly doesn't deserve its bad rap.

| Original Score: 6.5/10 | Mar 30, 2015
