Fast and the Furious:Tokyo Drift

I've been watching some guff recently.

Caleb from American Gothic is all growed up and now likes to get into trouble racing around half completed housing estates. He is sent to live with his estranged father in Tokyo where he falls in with a crowd of petrolhead expats and yakuza connected petty criminals who show him the beauty of going around corners sideways.
The plot is intentionally secondary to the flash cars, too cool soundtrack and showy cinematography. But that keeps Tokyo Drift from getting above itself and it remains enjoyable if stupid. A bit like Edith Bowman.
6/10
