Fast and the Furious had tts opening delayed a couple, of times, had its name changed twice, and had impoft fans linihg up by the hundreds at the start-
ing line (a ticket line), I walked into this movie expecting a car movie packed with hot fast cars,
great chase scenes, and nothing more. I didn't go to this movie looking for a plot, well-developed characters, or even good acting. I wanted to see a movie that would
kick in my adrenaline, leave me plastered to my chair, and salivating over the tricked out cars and that's exactly what I got. If you've ever seen the surf movie from the early 90's, Point Break, you'll notice a lot of similarities in the plot, but who really cares. I must say, the cast in the movie did an excellent job and did sell the roles of being a man or woman on the street-racing scene. I was sorry to see that Ja Rule only had a small cameo; but I'd say his performance was quite good for such a small role, in comparison with the likes of Vin Diesel (can you possibly get a better car guy name?) Jordana Brewster, Michelle Rodriguez and Paul Walker. This is a movie that is definitely worth checking out, if you're into the impoft scene or not. P.S. A note from my girlfriend, "Ladies, 2 words.... Vin Diesel!" The only reason I allowed myself to be dragged to Legally Blonde was so I could finally write a harsh and cutting review about a movie. However, as it turned out,

was sorely disappointed. This movie was surprisingly better than thought it would be. Reese Witherspoon's acting carried the movie. I haven't seen such a diDy blonde since Alicia Silverstone in Clueless. The one expecta-
tion that this movie lived up
to was its
blondeness. However, this movie actually had a plot and character development. Guys should go see this movie just to see the hot girls, while women tend to like the movie because it's empowering and true to life. If you want to laugh, have fun and maybe
gain a little bit better understanding of women, go check this movie out, it's definitely worth the time. C'RLANDC' SOI,.lRGE
