LRA writes: Yeah, there was a time when Vin Diesel was poised to be a huge action star. With the one two punch of The Fast & the Furious and Pitch Black he had made a huge impression on a generation that was starved for a competent action hero. Then something happened, all of a sudden he wasn't cool any more, he somehow managed to become a joke. It was just after the release of the financially successful but painful to watch kids film The Pacifier that he had accomplished the impressive task of tanking his own career by...well, I am not exactly sure. I used to think it was because he was maybe a little too full of himself but I don't think that was it. He just made some pretty awful decisions but coming back to the franchise that made him a star was the smartest thing he has ever done. I may not be the biggest fan of the fast and furious movies but he has made some pretty decent movies in his somewhat short career and these are some of my own personal favorites.
The Fast and the Furious series has made a grand total of $51 billion in box office worldwide. With extravagant stunt scenes and fast paced chase sequences, the movie series has made a place in the heart of the fans. Let us recap some of the high-octane scenes from The Fast and the Furious series.
Vin Diesel action sequel has the daredevil agent, Xander Cage, returning to the field to thwart the launch of an unstoppable weapon.

In a new interview, Guardians of The Galaxy Vol. 2's Vin Diesel teases the prospect of some very exciting developments regarding Groot and his best pal Rocket.
LMAO.
It's a stock Diesel list. My only suggestion would be to consider Find Me Guilty. It is arguably his most interesting performance. Of course, it doesn't feature his enormous pythons for arms. It's not an action film, but it deserves consideration in any best of Vin countdown. Plus, the late Sidney Lumet directed it...highly underrated movie IMO.
Yeah...Find Me Guilty but I liked Pitch Black a little.
i didn't really like him at all in the first Fast movie
