Question Initial D the movie vs. F&F tokyo drift?

I am not huge fan of foreign films but I felt Initial D was slightly more believeable. Just because not every 16 to 20 yr. old has $30k car with $60k in mods on there car in Initial D. The acting is not great in either one but I think like Initial D the best.

Which one did you like or dislike more?

Initial D's acting wasn't all that great but they did have big names (Edison) & Jay chou and the dood that played Jay's Dad....

F&F looked way too fake...too much CGI loses it's believability (is that even a word???)

Personally, F&F was just horrid...IMO

Ya it's a foreign film and I think it never played in to the eastern US theaters. I am sure you can find it just about any where(Google Video, youtube, amazon, and I rented off netflix. I sure you like it.

I think the acting was bad because they where trying to mimick the anime version.

Sorry there aren't any hondas in the movie but there was on the anime show and Arcade game Initial D 1,2,3, and 4. I think it just because honda doesn't make a whole lot of rear wheel drives.

Never saw F&F

Initial D I haven't seen since I bought it. It was okay. I remember being dispointed in a lot of the aspects of it, but, dispite being disapointed I remember being mildly entertained in spots.

Tokyo Drift was tolerable. Only b/c it was technically advised by Toshi of JDM Insider/APEXi who does announcing for D1GP events in Japan and US. The scenes were not outrageous like the first 2 FNF movies.


Initial D was good entertainment. Only saw it once and it was entertaining. My friends who are hardcore Initial D fans didnt really think the same. Only b/c they follow the manga and cartoon.
