The Fast and the Furious (2001)

AroView: A shameless pleasure for petrol-heads, this not particularly deep action-drama set amid the world of street-drags, gets its message across in jittery, hyper-kinetic style.

Paul Walker plays an undercover cop who must gain the trust of ace dragster Vin Diesel, but soon succumbs to the need for speed!

Outrageously entertaining, see where it all started, spawning the whole franchise and all the video games, amusement park attractions and countless other merchandise.
