Soon after I've watched Fast and Furious 4, I noticed that I've begun to drive faster. Is it just me?
The movie has done its rounds a couple of months back. I guess you would have either watched it, read about it or watched some trailers and clips on YouTube.
Of course, the movie is about driving very quickly whether or not you need to reach your destination fast or not. This is not an exceptionally good movie. It has its fair share of driving excitements though.
The most worthwhile watch happened within the first 7-8 minutes when Vin Diesel and gang tried to hijack a long trailer road train carrying a lot of gasoline. Very exciting. Fast cars, muscles everywhere, co-ordination, jumping, climbing, hammering, a very tan and very healthy looking Michelle Rodriguez.
This 31 year old tough chick American actress was pretty impressive on this hijack scene. I first came upon her in Blue Crush and later she was featured quite a bit on Lost.
However the next couple of minutes after the hijack scene was really pathetic. It was supposed to be a tender moment when Vin Diesel closed in to tell her that they had better split as following him would be too dangerous for her. Here it is so apparent for all that Michele Rodriguez can't act for shit. This tough chick just can't handle a tender moment. I was embarrassed for her.
Possibly the producer was on the same wavelength as I and promptly killed her off. So, after the first 15 minutes, there was no more Michele Rodriguez, despite being third place on the credits listing. She was Letty in the movie. If you are going to watch this movie, do not wait in anticipation for her to be resurrected.
The other chick was Jordana Brewster. In the movie she was the sister of Vin Diesel and the girlfriend of our other hero Paul Walker.
Surprise, surprise. There was no sex scene at all in this movie despite so many sexy women being displayed all over and all the time.
The ending of the movie was kind of nonsensical. I think they just didn't know how to end it; be logical, be fair and yet be politically correct.
Well, here's something from Jordana. Watch it if you have the time. Don't if you can't stand 2 girls kissing repeatedly. This is from a 2004 movie D.E.B.S.
