Drive is interesting, but it's too slow for its own good. Most of the time is spent with the characters silently staring at each other as the cool synthpop soundtrack plays in the background. It wasn't that I was expecting an action-packed adventure - I knew what this film was going into it - but it still felt tediously drawn-out. Or maybe I shouldn't watch these types of movies when I'm sick.

Each scene was like a painting. From the placement of the actors to the lighting to the very still and cold demeanor of the characters, this film spoke to me as more of an art piece than your average crime, drama. Fantastic film, love all of Refn's work.

This title was obviously written by a high school student who had never seen a movie made before 2000! Great news for all teenagers, because apparently they can get movies made from really basic scripts. With top notch actors, as well.Awful, awful script. Great cast and crew otherwise. But just a badly written script. That's all.

...and you do not explain why. because it is a different film than you expect. because it seems perfect and the right puzzle from so many influences. because, in same measure, is sadistic and poetic and hypnotic and an unique love story . because each character is the lead character. because it is a western and a ganster film and a fairy tale and a Sci . Fi. . a thriller. and example of brilliant performances. because, after a long time, you discover Ryan Gossling. his interpretation force, his impecable explore of the nuances of his role. because you feel more than see the film. the links, fragility, force and splendid cinematography. because it is a masterpiece. without know define that why.
