Hidden Gem Amongst the Furious
7 January 2021
Tokyo Drift is a quaint little entry in the bombastic Fast franchise. It brings us back to a simpler time before the series went completely off the rails (admittedly, to fantastic results) In this entry an American teenager (Josh Lucas) moves to Tokyo to live with his father. He must learn to fit in with a decidedly different high school crowd and car culture. He comes to learn that in Tokyo racing is not about raw power or speed, but finesse, skill... Hey do you remember that movie on 'Airborne' that used to play on Disney Channel? With the rollerbladers and Jack Black? It's a lot like that, but in Japan. Replace the hockey and rollerblading with sweet drifting cars. Throw in the introduction of franchise favorite character Han (Sung Kang) and you have a winning formula. I like this one, and I believe you should give it a shot.
