Goofs:
Factual errors: Sean's father is credited as being "Major Boswell". In a scene where he is in Naval uniform, his shoulder board clearly displays the two full stripes of a full Lieutenant and the collar insignia, while improperly gold, also is the two bars of a Lieutenant. The rank of full Lieutenant in the Navy is O-3. Major is not a Naval rank but used in the Marine Corps, Army, and Air Force and is O-4 and equivalent to that of a Lieutenant Commander in the Navy. Major is denoted by a gold oak leaf cluster instead of twin silver bars. A Lieutenant Commander in the Navy also carries the gold oak leaf cluster on his collar and the shoulder board carries two full strips and one half strip between.

Usually when a film has a Part III, it leaves you with, "Why did they make a third film?" Case in point, "Smokey & The Bandit". Now I am dating myself if that's the only film I can come up with when it comes to trilogies. But car movies are seldomly done in trilogies. Star Wars, The Godfather, Lord of the Rings and Back to the Future are the only exceptions that have worked in the past because there's an on-going story line.
Tokyo Drift was a good film. Good plot line (if you disagree, then you're a "Too much to think" film-goer, stay with chick-flicks then). Good action. And of course, cool cars. The fact that it strayed away from Part I & II was a good idea. And film director, Justin Lin did an great job getting his vision to film. The mounted camera on a super-fast go-cart gave some spectacular shots.
It's a good escape film with the "new kid in town, gets beat up or loses in some sort of competition, learns from a local to be better then wins in the end." But for a trilogy film it's excellent compared to other Part III films that have been released.
