Drives your heart .. completely!!!

Rating: 8/10 (5 October 2011)

Nicolas Winding has created his own little classic in this movie. A typical genre of car movies. Though not a very fast paced movie, it keeps you hooked on till the end. Extremely violent but done very very ostentatiously!!! The bloodshed, the cars and the story line somewhere strikes a chord in your mind and heart!! its 100 minutes of movie pleasure!! Ryan Gosling is tremendous throughout the movie, has literally portrayed the essence of the story well, there is something about the silence in his mouth and the words in his eyes. It causes an effervescence inside you. And here's the best part.. his character has no name in the entire movie!!!! the plot begins where Ryan is a garage worker(Bryan Cranston) and also is an occasional stunt driver. He gets romantically involved with his neighbor, Irene( Carey Mulligan) and her son Benicio, when Carey's husband(Standard) steps out from prison. Standard own "protection money" to Cook from his time in prison and Cook threatens to go after his wife if the money is not returned. Considering Irene in mind, Ryan steps forward to help Standard by robbing a pawn shop. The robbery goes fatally bad when standard is shot dead. Later Ryan learns that Nino (Ron pearlman) is behind this heist. How Ryan encounters Ron and vice versa, and what happens to the money, and Irene is the rest of the plot that keeps to glued to the seats.
Personally my favorites of the movie was Ron Pealrman and the music and of course the action.
Ron Pearl is just too very good!! Dialogue delivery, intonation, expressions this man has it all within him.
Music: watch out for this track "Real Hero". The tune just cruises through your heart in a way you'd never imagine.
The killing scenes are shot in a very dramatic and extremely violent way, but it does not make you wanna see away!! Its simply grotesque but cool!!!!
Final Verdict:: Watch it to feel it!!
Simply Perpetual!!! Loved the movie!!
