Its not a sophisticated movie by any means which is why the critics chewed it to shreds. But if you like street racing, seeing Miami babes prancing around in tight shorts, and lots of car stunt action, you'll love it.
As usual the critics have been proven full of shit. Its doing great at the box office.

I'd definitely agree with KRL.
If you're a fan of the whole street racing scene, you'll like the movie.
The dialogue is terrible, Ludacris can't act to save his life, but luckily has no real function in the movie. All the "theatrical" elements of storytelling aren't done too well, which is exactly why all those balding, middle-aged critics gave it such a bad review.
But, I felt the action sequences were well done and I felt genuine suspense in several of the car chase sequences.
And last but not least, I nearly came all over myself when Eva Mendes comes out in those booty shorts in the floating cabin scene.
