Drive Audience Reviews

FrogGlace In other words,this film is a surreal ride.

Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Portia Hilton Blistering performances.

Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

austinfromdahood When I started to get interested into film, I somehow started watching movie reviews on YouTube, and my favorite YouTube movie critic was and still is, Chris Stuckmann. After binge watching many of his videos, I found out that one of his favorite films is Nicolas Winding Refn's Drive. I decided to watch it one day, and I was very mixed on it at first. I then watched Chris Stuckmann's Analyzed video on Drive, but after that, I still didn't understand the movie too much. Then, one day, I just had the urge to watch it again. I don't know why, I just did, but watching it the 2nd time was a very mesmerizing experience. The soundtrack, the cinematography, the acting, and it's complex story makes Drive one of my favorite films of all time. Many people did not like this movie upon its release, and I think it is because of its misleading marketing. The trailers for Drive make it seems like the movie is a straight up action film with the utterly handsome Ryan Gosling in the leading role. The movie is actually a meticulously crafted neo-noir film that doesn't concentrate on the action, but on its complex story. This film is not only one of my favorite arthouse films, but one of my all time favorites.

danielcopping1997 Every time I watch this film I enjoy it as much as the first time. The acting is great, Gosling is mysterious and exciting, and the rest of the cast are all excellent. Winding-Refn made a classic in this film, and it's a shame he couldn't keep his momentum on later films.

andreineagu-12491 Another crappy movie I remember watching at the cinema some years ago. I think it was 2011. Weak acting, no plot, weak characters, boring movie. I have been working all my life in television, translating movies. I don't want to be mean, but I think people that gave this movie above 7 or 8, must be stupid and shouldn't be allowed to rate movies. I have watched great movies from The Godfather to Scent Of A Woman to U-Turn by the great Oliver Stone. This movie does not deserve the rating it has. It shouldn't have a higher rating than Leon, like somebody else said it.

classicsoncall Despite the title, the film is not primarily about fast cars and high speed chase scenes. Ryan Gosling's no-name character is a combination mechanic/driver/stunt man with an unacknowledged shady past, and you get the idea that he wants to go straight but hasn't had the opportunity yet. Meeting his neighbor Irene (Carey Mulligan) just might be the ticket, but her ex-con husband is something of an obstacle when he's released from prison. With the stars unaligned for for our complicatedly ambiguous hero, the story is set to go in unexpected directions. I thought the chemistry between Irene and Driver was well played without compromising her marriage in an overt way. When Standard (Oscar Isaac) got whacked, I thought it was just a bit too convenient way for the attractive couple to get together, but the story wisely took things in a different direction. To my way of thinking, I don't think Irene would have made a wise decision casting her future with Driver anyway, that scene of Driver cracking open the guy's head in the elevator wasn't exactly the mark of someone with a lot of compassion if things went against him.I thought about all those long, slow frames of Gosling with his emotionless expression and I think it worked well for the character. It gives you time to wonder what he was thinking in a given situation, and he seemed to have a lot of those. The few good action sequences of Driver actually driving are well done, but that's not the reason to see the movie. Tune in for an effective neo-noir character study of a man on a mission, who if this was a Western, winds up riding off into the sunset, alone and undeterred seeking a destiny he might never find.
