Chicago Reader<\/b>: “Without Diesel’s brooding lunkhead presence it’s more like 1\/2 Fast 1\/2 Furious<\/i>.” — J. R. Jones<\/a><\/p>\n

New York Times<\/b>: “All of these supremely expressive vehicles come equipped with drivers, principally a pair of crash-test dummies played by Paul Walker and Tyrese, whose low-gear dialogue makes the whine of engines sound like the highest poetry.” — A. O. Scott<\/a><\/p>\n

Washington Post<\/b>: “Miami Vice<\/i> with many more carz and numberz where all the adjectives used 2 go.” — Stephen Hunter<\/a><\/p>\n

Christian Science Monitor<\/b>: “2 foolish + 2 flashy = 4 get it!” — David Sterrit<\/a><\/p>\n

Austin Chronicle<\/b>: “As exciting as a Yugo in quicksand.” — Marc Savlov<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
