Just watched it. I thought it was pretty good. Reminded me of 'Real Steel' but with cars (that movie caught me by surprise too).

It's not a bad movie, they get most of the jargen right, but come on, power shifting to beat a 5.0 supercharged?? are you kidding me? For the most part I'll fool a normal person, but if you have a good amount on knowledge about car's you can pull this movie apart. My brother and I just have fun by pointing out the faults in the movie, but it was fun to watch. You get to see the cars in it, i liked the concept of the Mustang, the sti was pushing it without internals( i think unless im wrong,dont remember )... but ya id give it 7/10 worth a watch if ya have nothing better to do

Story line is pretty much just like Tokyo Drift. Not a bad movie though if you're bored..

Horrible acting, douche bag actors and a script that will make you face palm. Other than that, it's a pretty decent movie...better than the F&F series., but I guess that's not saying much.

I like how an STi with the stock top mount IC and stock location turbo can run 9's - awesome!

If Alanis Morissette hadn't ruined the word irony, it would be highly appropriate here.

But she did.

I watched Haywire the other day in Evo X MR. The movie was ok but the previews pretty much showed all of the footage with the Evo. That part was disappointing.

Born 2 Race was actually pretty good. It was a little cheesy in parts but over all a good watch. It was nice seeing the Evo take out the GT-R

I gave it 4 stars on Netflix. Pretty entertaining and worth a watch.

What everyone else has said is pretty spot on.

Pretty bad acting, generic storyline, decent thrills. You could tell the movie wouldn't have been made without the product placement and sponsorship.

I think Fast 5 was a better movie in general, and of course you don't get the awesome one liners in this movie like you do in the older F&F movies...
