Not what i expected

Rating: 8/10 (26 September 2011)

Let me first tell you that after seeing review saying things like Bullit and car movie of the year, I expected a Driving movie ., But this is not a movie about that instead its a suspenseful journey of a man that just happens to be a driver , a very good driver but that is not what keeps you in your seat, That is the almost crushing atmosphere of tension that hangs over the whole movie and the very brilliant way they manage to capture the leading role, even thou he have about the same amount of lines in the movie as Arnold had in the first terminator.Also the LA around the movie reminds me of Collateral damage a vibrant and alive backdrop but at the same time cold and uncaring. But and this is a big but i can see why some people getting out of this movie is angry or disappointed because many Review makes this movie into something that its not , Sure there is the odd car chase but calling it a new Bullit is like calling a BigMac a salad ..I liked this movie for the somber tone it sets and for not letting it slip away half way through like many other movies.
