Fast and Furious (2009) Review

Fast and Furious (2009)

Guess who's a police officier again. That's right Brian O'Conner is back on the force and ready to take down a large drug lord. Dominic wants the same guy but for different reasons. The drug lord took the life of Letty, Dom's girlfriend of several years and he seeks some revenge. Brian and Dom meet again at the race for the spot on the team to drive for the drug lord. This spot was necessary if you wanted to even get close to this guy. Dom got the spot, but Brian used his connections with the law to get onto the team as well.

It came to the delivery day and the four cars transporting the goods, aka drugs, were on their way to sneak them across the border. They raced across the desert ground into a tunnel that brought them to the American side. From there they met up on the hill. Dom knew they would die, so he rigged his car to blow. Brian and Dom escaped together unharmed. They still needed to take care of the drug lord and they now had a way to bargain with him. The truck they took was filled with 40 million dollars of cocaine and he would not want to lose those profits. 

They arranged a meet and Brian ordered police support to watch over and arrest the drug lord, but he ended up escaping and reaching the Mexican border where the FBI could not interfere. Dom and Brian set off to get the drug lord and fight with cars through the desert to finally capture him. This movie brought me back to my childhood when the first one was made and that why I'm giving this a 4.4 stars out of 5.
