"Fast & Furious" re-teams Vin Diesel1 and Paul Walker for the first time since 2001's "The Fast and the Furious." A simple world where everything falls into an easy hierarchy2 is essential, so that the audience can concentrate on what's important: street racing3 and cheating death in slow motion. Dom (Diesel) is wanted by the feds. Brian (Walker) is a fed. And the story roils4 with revenge as both men reunite to take down a Mexican crime lord. There's a high-speed race to the border. There are FBI agents, SWAT teams and helicopters. As for the death-cheating, it's still in full throttle5. Take the breath-choking opener, for instance, as Dom attempts to hijack6 the gasoline cargo7 of a speeding truck. We can practically see oblivion in special-effect relief as a derailed tanker8 flips9 and hurtles toward Diesel. The specter looms10 again when Dom and Brian—in the inevitable11 street race—screech and career through red lights at busy L.A. intersections12. Part of the thrill is our inviolate13 confidence that these stars aren't going to die. We know they're as safe behind the wheel as we would be playing the video-game version. So long as the filmmakers keep giving us vicarious access to the good, fast, sleek14 things in life, we don't see this ride running out of fuel for a long time.
