Art-house Action Film that Rocks!

Rating: 9/10 (14 July 2012)

Drive was a film that was absolutely hooking from start to finish. Okay, Ryan Gosling plays this guy that goes by the name Driver. He is a stunt performer by day and moonlights as a getaway driver by night. Anyway, Driver has this captivating stare that just makes you keep wondering what's going to happen. This movie was a great mix of film noir, thriller, art house and action. The dialogue between Driver who in which is Ryan Gosling and Irene (Carey Mulligan) who in which is the Driver's neighbor very quiet and they are not full of words, but you can really see the chemistry between these two characters which I like. Driver is pretty much willing to help Irene out while she's a single mother. Driver is soon the unexpected when he is forced to change to the violent side when a heist is gone wrong and Irene's husband is killed. The Driver is yet willing to protect Irene and her son. Its such an amazing and riveting story that is brought from a novel and brought to life. Which James Sallis (novel) and Nicolas Winding Refn (director) made happen and all the actor's performances were phenomenal.
