"DRIVE" has a few flat tires

Rating: 5/10 (14 February 2012)

Obviously,this is a polarizing movie. People either love it or hate it. My biggest problems were 1. I didn't believe that Lilly white girl would be with a Chicano criminal serving time 2. I also didn't believe she would fall in love with Gosling's character after a 5 min picnic date. 3. I didn't believe Gosling's character would help this criminal husband after he told Gosling to stay away from his wife and child. 4. I didn't believe Gosling pulls off a job in some joint that happened to be connected to Albert Brookes' storyline. 5. My biggest problem is why this Lilly white girl would slap Gosling when Gosling offers her the money. I mean,she was married to a criminal,Gosling is trying to save her life and she has no means to survive. OK,slap Gosling. 6. And finally; WHY LEAVE THE MILLION DOLLARS? Gosling is fleeing L.A. he also is motivated by money (hence his getaway work) Albert Brookea tried killing Gosling after he agreed to drop any beef if the money was returned. And I'd still like to know how Gosling survived that 10inch blade stuck into his stomach.
