Save Your Money

Rating: 3/10 (24 September 2011)

I had high hopes for this movie. It's called, Drive, so I expected lots of action packed, adrenaline-pumping chase scenes. I was sorely disappointed! Ryan Gossling, usually a good actor, seemed completely stoned throughout the movie, and brought very little to the table. His character's lack of emotion was never explained, and did not serve to further the storyline at all. The supporting characters, except for Bryan Cranston, also had no depth. The storyline was extremely slow and often seemed to wander. For a movie about an action movie driver who is a driver for illegal activities, there were very few driving scenes, and those it did include were way too short. The worst part was that the movie contained completely unnecessary OVERPOWERING BAD 80's music throughout. I would not be surprised if Tiffany or Debbie Gibson was on the soundtrack!). Save your money!
