Sean Boswell (Lucas Black) always feels like an outsider, but he defines himself through his victories as a street racer. His hobby makes him unpopular with the authorities, so he goes to live with his father in Japan. Once there and even more alienated, he learns about an exciting, but dangerous, new style of the sport. The stakes are high when Sean takes on the local champion and falls for the man's girlfriend.

Critics Consensus

Eye-popping driving sequences coupled with a limp story and flat performances make this Drift a disappointing follow-up to previous Fast and Furious installments.

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

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.

Easily the least interesting Fast & Furious movie that Universal ever made.

0.5/4

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.

4/10

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.

I enjoyed the departure from Vin and Paul. Han has always been my favorite, so I may be biased. It's super entertaining and fun to watch.

Awful acting. The dialogue scenes are excruciating and his fake accent is not helping me at all.
