I do not go to uber-violent movies. I also do not read reviews of movies. I thought Drive was a car chase/rom com. I went to this one unprepared.
I didn't see or hear the whole thing -- eyes closed, ears plugged as tight as I could get them.
And I loved this movie. Can't say it is a don't miss experience -- the violence is too much to make that comment. I'm glad I saw it. That is all. Gosling, Mulligan, Brooks. Great performances.
This movie wins Bogus Movie of the Year Award. There's really nothing good about it, unless it was trying to be bad, then it fully succeeded at being a bad movie.
Awesome movie. Dont listen to the negative reviews. Incredible lighting, camera working, pauses... Like a restored car from previous generations, this movie provides thrills, visual appeal, and solid performances.
I don't why everyone loved this movie so much, I left more than half way through. I'm pretty fond of violent movies, and I like a good heist/chase, this movie didn't have enough of either to keep me interested. Especially with the complete lack of actual dialogue. Why a guy would go out so far on a limb to help a married woman with whom he had a 15 minute "courtship" which pretty much consisted of them just staring at each other I will NEVER know. Albert Brooks is the ONLY slightly redeeming thing about this movie.
I thought it was okay, not great. Definitely not something I would elect to see more than once, and I often obsessively watch movies I like over and over.
Boring. I nearly fell asleep toward the end. No, I wasn't expecting 'Fast N Furious' but I was expecting, you know, some actual driving. Seriously, there are 3 driving scenes and one of them is a day-trip to picnic by a creek.

@2,
How could you forget Bryan Cranston?
