This film pretty much gets everything wrong. As a film that is trying to make its share from the popularity of the Fast and Furious franchise, Fast and Fierce shows a complete lack of understanding of what makes Fast and Furious so popular and successful.

The writing is shocking. At times it even dips into the same territory as The Room but in a way that is embarrassing than endearing.

The acting isn't very good either, it gives the impression that all the actors are amateurs and that this is their first time acting, and whoever directed the film chose their first takes of every scene they did.

What makes Fast and Furious so exciting to watch is that the films, during the races, are very visually stylized. In Fast and Fierce, we have shaky cam, fast editing that sometimes breaks continuity, and shots of actors who don't look like they know what they are supposed to be reacting to.

I draw comparisons to Fast and the Furious, not only because of its alternative title Fast and Fierce, but also because they even use the line "I live life a quarter mile at a time" so it's begging for the comparison. The film ends with a weird interjection that is out of place and in a situation that does not really give much resolution to anything.

The romance is forced and so cliche that the film would have been better off without it.

I didn't have high expectations for this film and, indeed, it lived up to those quite low expectations. This is easily the kind of film you can enjoy with friends if you all enjoy watching cheaply made, imitations of big budget Hollywood films. There is entertainment value with this, but it's better with friends. Not so bad it's good, but it's campy, hammy, and corny enough for a bad movie night.

Horrible story (is there a story?) The acting is pure garbage at best and the CGI is really bad. Nothing makes sense from the start. This race they take part in, for 5 million only has 2-3 people? ??What? I can't even write this review. I had to stop watching the movie, and have to stop writing this review.

Bogus direction stupid story , third grade movie,worst acting

Turned the movie off after 20min... Acting is bad and the camera footage form the "racing" is terrible.. looks like they race in 20Mph

I don't mind watching low budget movies, foreign movies. But this is something else. Story 0 Director 0 Post production - 100 Only the cast I can't judge because with this crew even Tom cruise can look bad

If there is a rating in minus this thing deserves it hands down

Firstly, the name is a selling point, but nothing like the Fast and Furious, nor the Death Race franchises.

The plot is that a millionaire puts on an illegal race from Mexico to L.A. with people betting on the race. It's not a comedy tho, just that same betting poll seen in Rat Race. However no one who places any bets is seen and it can become very confusing to pick up on this. Three drivers have been selected and for some reason some supposedly legendary drivers brother has been reeled in to owe a lot of money to the guy who puts on this race so he can get him to enter his race and make some bigger money. With a bunch of kidnapping and blackmail going on, the main guy enters the race and ends up meeting his Frog along the way who is the millionaires ex girlfriend and needs to get to L.A. with a flash-drive containing evidence to take the millionaire down. Now the main driver has everyone trying to kill him to get the girl, except for those at checkpoints. Will they get to L.A alive?

The film has a lot of stupid plot points to get this guy to drive, and the motive is explained, but blink and you'll miss it. I can see why other reviewers are saying "where's the plot?" What's most likely happened here is the film ran over budget, and they edited together what they had, with key ex machina scenes not filmed, and the climax completely ruined and rushed with what they could film quickly to just have something to end on.

Had this film explained itself better and had a decent ending, it would be pretty good. But what it is is a film that was ok up till the very end with a god awful way to end the film.

Overall, I wouldn't bother. It will just leave you disappointed like you wasted your time watching something half decent only to feel in the end like the movie took a dump on you and ran away.

1 star because I couldn't give it less. Crap film crap ending cheap cgi. Using lines from fast and furious. Poor, really poor

Honest review.....! This is the worst movie i've seen this year. Not worth even one star!!!!

Oh my god Veronika Issa tries to do what i am guess is a scarface impression of Tony Montana and it is sooo bad it is like they said do the worse impression you can do and she did. I went on instagram and this isn't what she sounds like so this was a impression. In her defense the whole movie was bad the script made no sense and the ending was the worse. I like her and a lot of the other actors and hope to see them in more stuff coming out but not a sequel to this

Movie rating 2 is very low, this deserve 4 or 5 as me and as movie entertaining. At least it binds you till end without many boring movie. Veronika Issa looking gorgeous is added point and some racing sequences are interesting. Story is nothing new than usual F&F movies but you can watch it once with not much expectations.

DMX is a good actor and a joy to watch. He's authentic and is the ONLY reason to watch this movie.

Honestly I only watched it because DMX is in it. This would be a great movie if it was on a big budget production. The storyline wasn't bad and the actors did a good job. But it badly lacked research into cars especially from the main actor. Nos at the start of a 1000 mile race by one one actor. A muscle car that clearly has a truck gear box and driving at 180mph with the windows half up while casually moving the steering wheel side to side. I feel it is a B movie and if that was the intention then its good for a b movie. I feel it's the type of movie on late at night on film4 or on scyfy with the likes of sharknado. The best part about this movie was seeing DMX look healthy I would gladly watch movies like this if it meant he was in a good space. RR

This is the worse drama that I've ever seen. Poor choices of words, bad cgi, poor acting, weird cars, etc. I wonder why anyone will put their money in this. Only watch if you nothing to watch.

Its is the worst carp movie and then it got a big crap dumped on it.

I'm being kind calling it crap.

Then it has the worst ending ever.

It was so bad, I had to keep watching it.

Like a bad car wreck.

The other reviews that gave a 1 aren't worth listening to. When you watch a straight to video film you can't judge them by films with big budget films.This film was half way decent. I see a lot of movies both big budget and low.I gave it a 5 based on that criteria. I guess some people don't have the intelligent to make that type of assessment.

This is the worst movie I have ever seen, it makes Movie 43 look like Citizen Cane! If you're expecting cool cars and great driving sequences, forget it, looking for a captivating story.. Forget it. Judging DMX for even considering being in this disaster! Over a 100 years of cinema and this is where we're at?!

I lasted 25 minutes. Seriously, how many gears do these cars have? Absolute waste of drinking time.

Not a bad film a bit different from fast n furious movies but the ending was crap.

What a way to fall, DMX had 2 number 1 CDs in the very same year, worked with Jet Li on two big blockbuster films, and seem like things were going good for him. Unfortunately I think he didn't take care of his money or whatever, and did some dog fighting and now his career is kinda ruined. Why do stuff like that when you are already rich? Get out the hood man, don't go back into that lifestyle. You HAVE Money, you don't need to try to keep acting thuggish anymore.

Anyways this is basically Fast and Furious with a lower budget. They even took some lines straight out of the films "I live my life a quarter mile at a time."

This movie does not even deserve a star. Waste of time. I strongly recommend not to watch it :)

Just as the movie started and I saw THE ASYLUM on the screen, I just thought 'oh no...'

And yeah, this movie was exactly what you would expect from The Asylum; a mockbuster and a cash-on on the famous "Fast & Furious" franchise of course. But still, I opted to watch the movie, as once in a blue moon, then The Asylum does manage to put out a watchable movie.

"Fast & Fierce: Death Race" (aka "In the Drift") wasn't one such movie.

The storyline is every bit as stale and mundane as you would expect. So writers Mark Atkins and Marc Gottlieb didn't churn out something interesting, much less anything that proved entertaining or enjoyable.

The acting in "In the Drift" was every bit as stale and wooden as the storyline and script was. So yeah, you know what you are getting here. But of course, with a someone as DMX listed on the cover as the appeal to lure in audience, stakes aren't really that promising.

If you enjoy muscle cars, which I don't, then you might actually find some enjoyment in the movie, as there are some cars throughout the course of the movie. But if you are looking for a movie that provides you with a proper script and storyline to keep you entertained, then "In the Drift" is a really, really poor choice of movie.

Heck, I didn't even complete the movie, because it was so unappealing and anything but interesting. Now, I can't claim to be much of a fan of the "Fast & Furious" movie franchise either, but at least they had the budget and the cast to make it watchable. "In the Drift" had neither.

My rating of this 2020 mockbuster lands on a mere two out of ten stars. This was by no means the brightest moment in the history of The Asylum.

I don't know why but a movie with fast cars, hot women, still needs a plot and half an acting job to be qualified as a starter and a finisher, I couldn't finish this movie, I barely made it to the start of the film. I made it to the 1st check point and said, BAH!!! If you looking for fast cars and such, go watch Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift or wait for Too Fast and Too Fierce which hopefully will be better!! SEE YA AT THE STARTING LINE!!!!!

DMX did the best acting and isn't an actor. The movie started with a good storyline but then got confusing. Then DMX side kick I was confused on what accent she was doing. The weird lines that seemed to just come out of no where. Jack (main character) lacked acting and definitely didn't convince me as the bad ass that they were portraying him to be. Then the line about I live my life a 1/4 a mile at a time. Really?!? Yall just going to steal Vin Deisel line like that?? 😂😂 Terrible! I guess the writers just ran out of story and then just abruptly ended the movie.
