Atom User Reviews for The Fast and the Furious

Better equipped to deal with the workings of nitro-injection systems than human emotions, director Rob Cohen's film grows less assured the more time it spends with its characters, particularly through its dull middle section. It does earn points for trying, however, and while Walker is a cipher, Diesel has enough personality for both of them.

The A.V. Club

In seamlessly interweaving top-notch CGI and incredible stuntwork, Cohen has delivered some of the finest auto-action ever put on screen.

Adam Smith

Empire

The story is overly familiar and the characters are all types, but Cohen's cinematic techniques make The Fast and the Furious watchable.
