Drive (movie)

Did anyone go see it?

I did Saturday... Not very pleased.

- Horridly boring the first half
- Gosling probably had a single page of script, about 3 whole sentences the whole fucking movie
- Garbage ending

Also, it contained some of the most gruesome/grisly kill scenes I have ever seen in an IN-theater movie.

Decent taaaatss though in a couple scenes..

Not a very good flick..don't bother to see it in theaters.

It was "different" and subtlety bad-ass though. So I suppose that means it will win something.

Nope, but I saw Contagion. Was pretty good, but felt more like a documentary. Felt like they could have done more closing all of the characters stories.

i agree movie was crap, it got annoying after a while waiting for gosling to say something only to see him smile after what seemed like a super long period of silence...i watched Thor a few days before, knowing it would be crap, but i think i enjoyed it more than Drive

So what you all are saying is that I shouldn't ever trust Rotten Tomatoes again?

Can't say RT has ever done me wrong... I will probably wait till it comes out On-Demand.

Wanted to see that but my buddies swayed me to see Drive

It wasn't horrible, I guess I just had high expectations. I really liked Gosling in crazy stupid love. This time around, his role was obviously totally different as he played some next level man whore in Crazy Stupid Love.

Or maybe I just have horrible taste ?? Seems like the majority of movies that carry high/"Oscar worthy" film ratings are rarely good in my POV.

I thought it was good...more of an artsy film...come on Albert Brooks the goody comedian slashing people was classic.......if you're looking for Fast and Furious this movie isnt for you though.

they paused for 10mintues between lines and it made the movie so boring leme give u an example:

person1: hello
(30seconds wait)
person2:....hi
(25second wait)
person2: r u thirsty?
(40second wait)
person1: yup

etc lol.. not to mention there might have been 1 10second cool car clip the whole movie

All these negative comments make me not want to live on this planet anymore. Since when does anyone complain about a film being gory? I bet you didnt expect that from an film like this and that makes you complain? Come on...
