Vin Diesel returns to the series that made him a big star with Fast and Furious, a tiresome speedy-car movie. Things have really deteriorated since the fun original.

Of Hollywood, Bruce Lee, and MC Hammernew
Far be it from me to declare that an entire genre of film is dead, but shit, the reels that make up Finishing the Game would probably be just as useful as a tombstone on mockumentary's grave.

This movie continuously stalls and gets jump-started by drift race sequences that lose their novelty.

This film violates the axiom that a movie with all the intellectual rigor of a Hot Wheels commercial or a Street Low issue should at least feature charismatic stars.

Racing junkies would be better off browsing online drifting videos where the camera doesn’t cut and the people don’t speak.

This movie, supposedly about the Naval Academy, is actually a terrible boxing movie.

Annapolis is a thick but hardly meaty slice of old-school Hollywood hokum.
