Reel Deep Dive

2 Fast 2 Furious (2003)


Listen Later

Reel Deep Dive continues its breakdown of the Fast & The Furious franchise with its second installment, often argued as the worst installment in the series. Vin Diesel declined to participate, meaning that Paul Walker's street racing foil is now played by Tyreese Gibson. They've been conscripted to infiltrate a Floridian drug cartel and take down its kingpin by being really, really good at stunt driving. Hijinks, high speed chases, and half-assed ad-libbed dialogue ensues.


Ryan is joined by Sarah and Pete as they dissect this mediocre action movie. Discussion topics include the problems inherent in going back to the well, how later installments of the series improved matters by putting effort into making the audience like its characters, and how 2 Fast 2 Furious marked a significant change in the career trajectory of director John Singleton.
