Without Vin Diesel, these movies really struggle.
Just like the first movie, as a joke 2 Fast 2 Furious is kind of fun. The racing is ok, but in the middle of the movie they try and build this whole trust/betrayal subplot FOR AN HOUR! Remind me to bring a coloring book to keep me entertained. On the plus side, anytime Paul Walker (Brian O'Connor) tries to talk street, he sounds ridiculous.
Brian O'Connor: They got deep pockets?
Tej: Real deep.
Brian O'Connor: What's up, Suki?
Suki: What's up, Bullet?
Brian O'Connor: What do you say we kick it a nickel?
Orange Julius: No one said nothing about raising the stakes!
Brian O'Connor: If that's the case, why don't you ask these nice people here to back off the line so you can go home?
Tej: Real deep.
Brian O'Connor: What's up, Suki?
Suki: What's up, Bullet?
Brian O'Connor: What do you say we kick it a nickel?

WALKERED!!!
Fun Fact: Ja Rule was in negotiations for the film, but turned it down to pursue other film projects.
Remember him? He was HUGE. Now he haunts my dreams shouting "It's Murdah!!" and the immortal "Baby Girl, PUT IT ON ME!!!" And I still don't get what it means to be "Always on Time".
Ludacris > Ja Rule. QED.
SPOILER: This is only one out of the four Fast And The Furious movies to have no major character deaths.
Uh Oh.
