The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift [Includes Digital Copy] [4K Ultra HD Blu-ray/Blu-ray]

Director: Justin Lin, John Singleton, Rob Cohen

Overview

Better Luck Tomorrow director Justin Lin picks up where John Singleton left off to offer a high-octane look at the world of underground Japanese drift-racing in the latest installment of the super-charged Fast and the Furious film series. A frustrated teen from a broken home, Sean Boswell (Lucas Black) is an outsider looking to make a name for himself on the illegal street racing circuit. When Sean is busted by the police for his high-speed exploits and given the option of either spending time behind bars or moving overseas to live with his no-nonsense, military man father who's currently stationed in Tokyo, the young rebel packs his bags and sets his sights on Nippon. Though at first reluctant to adapt to the unfamiliar customs and foreign code of honor of his new home, Sean soon strikes up a friendship with American speed freak Twinkie (Bow Wow), a like-minded race fan who schools the inexperienced newcomer in the pulse-pounding world of drift-racing. Inadvertently challenging local champion and yakuza associate D.K. (The Drift King) his first time on the road, Sean is subsequently forced to work under expatriate Han (Sung Kang) to pay off his debt after failing to cross the finish line first. Taking note of the young American's affinity for racing as he warmly welcomes him into his merry band of misfit drift-fanatics, Han slowly introduces Sean to the key principles of the popular new racing style. When Sean makes the potentially deadly mistake of falling for D.K.'s girlfriend Neela (Nathalie Kelley), he'll need all the help he can get to face his most challenging race to date and take on the most notorious driver on the Tokyo drift scene in a hair-raising, hairpin-turn race where the winner truly takes all.

Editorial Reviews

The third film in this popular franchise introduces a new protagonist and exports the drama’s setting to Japan, but Tokyo Drift provides the same adrenaline rush as its predecessors. In lieu of incarceration, troubled teen and drag racer Sean Boswell (Lucas Black) opts to live with his father, a military man stationed in Tokyo. Depressed by the crowded city, Sean falls in with a wild young crowd. Before long he’s racing cars again, attempting to master the “Tokyo Drift”: turning sideways while simultaneously braking and accelerating. Director Justin Lin (Better Luck Tomorrow) does his best to present a coherent story and flesh out the rather perfunctory characters, but he knows what fans of this series crave -- lots of squealing, smoking tires, and as many wrecks per reel as are logically possible. And he delivers. While a supercharged chase-and-crash movie like Fast hardly demands top-quality acting, Black nonetheless turns in a solid portrayal as the rebellious, white-trash American operating on the fringes of Tokyo’s underworld. Among the other humans that appear onscreen, Nathalie Kelley distinguishes herself in the undemanding role of Sean’s eye candy, and erstwhile martial-arts star Sonny Chiba impresses as a ruthless Yakuza boss.
