Drive drifted daringly not daft yet undoubtedly devious.

Rating: 9/10 (2 October 2011)

There are many negative remarks regarding the pace of the movie. Personally, it disappoints me that so many were turned off and maybe even walked out on this. I too suffered at first, but the movie is nothing but a steady crescendo of intensity. The director starts manipulating time itself with beautifully framed shots and distorting slow motion. This dramatically intense movie is undeniably refreshing from the sequel money maker hell that has been the past 15 or so years.
A stunning soundtrack that lyrically fits each scene is still cruising around my head, most inevitably leading to the iTunes purchase of the entire album. Be sure to get comfortable with a drink, you are in for a long bloody Drive.
SRMIMM (somehow related movies in my mind) Taken (2008) A History of Violence (2005) Dirty Harry (1971)
(Authors note: I generally avoid trailers, plot summaries, and interviews. When I think I am going to enjoy a movie, I let the movie do all the talking. You may all want to try it.)
