Shipments of electrical goods are been highjacked and the FBI think the LA street racing gags are people behind it. Their prime suspect is Dominic Toretto (Diesel), the leader of a well-respected gang that seems to have very deep pockets all of a sudden. Enter Brian O'Conner (Walker) a rookie under cover agent trying to make a name for himself with his first big case. He has to gain the trust of the gang by infiltrating their way of life, but he didn't count on falling in love with Dominic's sister, Mia (Brewster).

Do you remember Point Break, were an FBI agent (Keanu Reeves) infiltrated a gang of surfers who they thought were behind a set of bank robberies? Plot wise this is really the same movie, just replacing surfing with street racing. However, director Rob Cohen has taken the premise and pressed the nitro button. Straight from the get-go this film is a non-stop assault on the senses. Car chases galore and a good cast make this movie a complete rush to watch. Anyone who has a passion for fast cars, will have all their whims catered for. We're not talking crappy American beasts, but the best of the Japanese GT cars like Skylines, Evo VIIs and Supras. The movie is totally relentless in its break neck speed, only pausing for breath to let the story unfold before the next turbo boost. The film is just a pure adrenalin rush for the Max Power generation.
