My recommendation for this one was:
"Car chase movies are fun. Though the trailer didn't really wow me, I'm sure there will be enough action to keep me entertained."
Ryan Gosling is good at playing odd, complicated, soft spoken characters. Lars and the Real Girl, United States of Leland, but in Drive the odd, complicated, soft spoken character is a mystery. There is no context for his superhero skills. Despite the decent performances, this was one dull story.
The 80's music didn't endear the film, either. Should have gone to see Red State again.
This blog was inspired by Max Beerbohm (August 24, 1872 – May 20, 1956) an English essayist, parodist, critic and caricaturist. He was once asked how he wrote his book reviews. He answered, "I look at the book, write the review and, if I like the review, I'll read the book." I sort of apply Max's approach to movies. Kind of like judging a book by its cover... only judging a movie by its trailer.
