OMG, This movie does not do Initial D justice! it's just a whole bunch of lame drifts on Fast forward. Non of the cast could act. The Girl wasn't even that cute. I played that stupid game on their stupid website trying to win them stupid premier tickets for stupid nothing. Now that i've finally seen the full movie, realize what i've been wasting mind on. DOWN WITH JAY CHOU, his music sux too, and he can shove that stupid J III mp3 player up his f$%King Azz

jay's kinda ugly to be actor
never seen movie but with jay chow being lead, i expect it to suck.
you can't just get someone famous, giving them the leading role and expect the movie to be good.

is not that he's extrememly ugly. his look actually fit the character, but his acting was just horrible. The director also seem clueless as to what elements of the anime he want to bring in and what to leave out.

:thumbsdown:

all the cars were the same as from the anime. characters were all way off. the retarded ricer kid made the movie enjoyable at the very least.

other than that ... it's a novelty movie

Is there an English subbed version out by chance? I heard the movie sucked too... they tried to squeeze first and second stage into 1.5 hours? That's crazy..

jay chou was the one playing takumi right? i dunno, he seemed to fit the part, seemed completely aloof just like takumi...

i kinda liked the movie actually, i didn't understand wtf they were saying, but the "theme" music is sorta kinda catchy...

anthony wong was alright, but there was another old school chinese actor that could have been a better Bunta.
