The ending shocked the hell out of me. If you only want to see the film for the racing sequences, then do not bother because it will leave you wanting (Go rent a street racing video). There is an actual script and the acting is much better than in the first.

Of course I am partial because I like racing films, but this goes way above the rest IMO.

Ummm, having Paul Walker on the big screen was a delight? That guy couldn't act his way out of a paper bag. I mean, I'm sure it was a better film than "Tokyo Drift" (for some reason I watched that whole movie on Cinemax a while back), but still. If you hit me in the head with a baseball bat, I'll spend the next 5 minutes or so doing my best Paul Walker impression.

Star Trek, GI Joe, Terminator Redemption, and Transformers 2 are all high on my list for upcoming films.
