Not as good as the first run out and thats all one can say really
There is a small chronological link with this film and the rest of the series, indeed you're best to watch this one after Fast and Furious 6 (2013) where the storylines can be better followed. Like most of the series this one is narratively similar in its basic plot and action. To that end it's nothing overly original and is probably great for fans but ultimately it's a rehash of the fast & Furious tropes. The story features new characters and here we have Sean (Lucas Black - remarkably similar to Paul Walker and no doubt purposefully), a young American street racer who after an encounter with the local police is sent to live with his father in Tokyo. Under his father's rules there's to be no car racing! That parental rule lasts about a day and soon Sean is hooked up with the locals and street racing where he has to learn a new way of driving called drifting. There's the usual girl involved and some nasty street thugs to race against and the driving stunts are the film's main attraction. Otherwise this is a routine action film for the video gaming age, it's reasonably entertaining but offers nothing overly original. The final cameo from Vin Diesel creates a story link to Fast And Furious 7 and no doubt is there solely to reassure the franchises fans.
