Definitely worth watching once

Rating: 9/10 (9 January 2017)

My first review. Because this not-a-mainstream movie deserved this.
First and foremost it was acting. These actors now will be left in mind as the characters in this movie :) Joke aside, Drive was the only movie that had my heart beat with thrill long after the Inglorious Bastard's famous bar scene. Not only the scene where "they" were waiting for "him" in the car (I honestly do not consider this a spoiler), the other parts of the movie as well.
Frankly, I was initially feeling that instead of stretching first half only about the hero and the new neighbors and their time together, it would be better it some background information was given for most of the characters. But then, I realized that this is not a gangster movie or plot-twist play to focus on those aspects. Instead, leaving the mystery behind the hero's personality suits better here.
Overall, as a spectator I really enjoyed "Drive" the most among more than ten movies I have watched in the last two days (because of sickness = rare opportunity :). Funny enough, this one had the lowest score among them, but got highest score from me :)
