A Fully Realised Arthouse Action If There Ever Was One

Rating: Null/10 (13 September 2019)

Smart, subversive & soulful in ways that most examples of its genre never aspire to, Drive blends action, drama, romance, music & neon-bathed visuals into an impeccably rendered & thoroughly absorbing neo-noir delight, relies more on images than words to convey its ideas & emotions, and is all the more uplifted by Ryan Gosling's immaculate performance & Nicolas Winding Refn's terrific direction to finish as a fully realised arthouse action if there ever was one.
