The best racing movie of all time!

Rating: Null/10 (17 November 2001)

I didn't see DRIVEN when it was in the theaters for two reasons. The first was because it wasn't in theaters for very long and the second was because a lot of my friends told me that it was horrible. Despite my friends warnings and the fact that it bombed at the box office, when it came to video I rented it anyway. The movie started out a little slow, but it got better as it went along. Sure, the movie is a little long, yet if it had been shortened some of the great things about the movie would be missing. It's unusual for a movie like this to have good character development and a fairly decent plot, which is one of the reasons I recommend this. Besides the excellent racing scenes, the movie is kind of like ROCKY except it's about racing in stead of boxing. This movie is a must-see for people who think Sylvester Stallone can't act because this movie will definitely prove them wrong. Racing fans [like me] will get a kick out of the superior car chases and everyone else will just be amazed at how good a movie about race car drivers can be.
