Ultra-violent, ultra-stylish, petrol-headed entertainment with enough arthouse flair to keep it interesting. Go watch it. But don't expect Fast & Furious 6. And don't take the kids.

Screenrant had an article devoted to explaining the ending of this movie, and when the ending of a movie needs explaining you have to see it.

It's up for grabs btw! hehe

Which is good cuz I'm not seeing this on Movietowne's coming attractions list (how lame)

[rassmatic]

With the rating IMDB giving this movie, it would most likely end up in the top 250 movies of all time list. hadda check this one out.

Yeah sucks that we not getting this in the cinema.

Anyway been reading the comments on that SCR and it seems it's different from what's currently playing in theaters.

Quotes from some commenters:

this IS a screener. more specifically it is a rough cut probably from being in competition at Cannes this year. The score is different [this early version was scored by David Lynch's regular composer Angelo Badalamenti] the violent moments are not as bloody [a sign that there is more CG in DRIVE than you would think] and there are several small editing and shot differences through out the film. still we should be so lucky to have this so soon.

this is DRIVE, but this is NOT the theatrical version. This version has a different score and is not completely edited. The color filter hasnt been applied yet and some of the CGI blood effects arent done. This may be a rough cut version of the film.

DEFINITELY watch the theatrical/completed version before watching this one.

Extremely tempting but I might wait for the blu-ray...don't want to risk watching an "incomplete" version lol.

Hearing real good things about this.

Will take in asap.

+1 to the poster

Good news, movietowne decided to include this in their lineup after all.
Now I don't need to wait for the blu-ray to finally see this.

I DEY!

Loved the movie. Very good noir with an awesome soundtrack.

However, watching it in a cinema full of people with ADHD wasn't fun.

Awesome neo-noir movie with a retro soundtrack. Ryan Gosling is officially a badass.

Oh and just a heads up this isn't an action movie (obviously)........apparently some ppl in the theater were expecting Transporter >_>

[Preston786]

DIS .... was full of

...

Well I'm going against the grain with this one and scoring a tepid 6 failed heists out of 10

Never got my juices going. Never felt vested in any of the characters. The action scenes were wtmc moments.

Spoiler (hover to show)

You mean to tell me, that these two bad ass mobster types don't even carry guns?? or henchmen nearby who do? both got snuffed like mcs

Super 8 next on the chopping block

Way against the grain dude lol. 93%

[TriniXaeno]

yeah, I had checked the IMDB reviews before making my post....it got a pretty solid score there as well.

unfortunately, it was mostly a flat experience for me. Especially coming off a string of kick ass films like Limitless, Fast Five, Rise of The Planet of The Apes and X Men: First Class.

All of which completely whoop the buttocks off of Drive (imo of course)

Had I seen Drive during a movie lull....it would have probably scored higher. But not back to back with those heavy hitters mentioned above.

[Red Paradox]

I watched this late. but holy shite this movie was awesome. Ryan Gosling FTW!

[W1nTry]

It was different i'll give it that... overall 7/10 but not everyone cup of tea (due to excessive violence)
