Drive – did you love it or hate it?

Just watched this over the weekend.

Absolutely bloody loved it.

Drive – Rotten Tomatoes[/url]

After hearing a few of my friends complain that it was “boring”, I knew it was going to be good, since they are the same friends that agreed that Independence Day was one of the most “powerful” films they’ve ever seen 😉

Style over substance? Perhaps, but my goodness, it’s pumped full of style.

Going to watch it again tonight with the sound turned up even louder 🙂

ALSO: do not watch any trailers or read anything about the plot. Just watch it, you’ll get a lot more out of it IMO.

Am I allowed to have just enjoyed it?

Though it was aright, wouldn’t be in any hurry to watch it again myself

first half was cringeworthy, thought it was a pisstake, then it picked up and I think the second half only works because of the crap first half

oddd one, still undecided

Am I allowed to have just enjoyed it?

No. This is STW, your opinion must be completely opposite from those who disagree with you 🙂

FTFY.

Well I watched it the same night as I watched Warrior. I ended up watching Warrior again the next day.

So I guess I want to get married to Warrior and hope that Drive gets run over by a train.

thought it was ok, but nothing special. kept loosing interest as hardly any of the characters had any qualities that made me remotely care if they survived the film.

Loved it, precisely because it was style over substance. Similarly, I also loved Lost in Translation. But I can see why others would dislike the film for the same reason.

The storyline wasn’t that strong but visually I found it brilliant.

That’s funny, me too.
I enjoyed it, but Ryan Gosling’s blank expression throughout got on my nerves after a while.

When he’s driving over the bridge and the helicopter spots the car so he puts his foot down, they all get pressed back in their seats but the car doesn’t actually go any faster and they’re still stuck behind the same cars when they come off the bridge! I may have some sort of OCD type thing, but that annoyed me.

Also, that car chase half way through was pretty poor given the the tense build up, especially the naff Fast-And-Furious-esque driving in reverse bit.

i still quite liked it though, especially the music.

Promised a lot, delivered nothing.

Really enjoyed it, could go into all sorts of bobbins about its influences and nods to other films but wont as I cant be bothered.

this was that slightly weird film I watched back in November. didn’t really do much for me.

Kev

I liked it.

would listen to the soundtrack, rather than watch the film again

Not seen it, and having read the review, not likely to. But Independence Day was great, would watch that one again.

loved it one of the best films I have seen in a while

I found the violence in it quite shocking. Not because it was particularly graphic (it’s not) but it’s certainly brutal. Somebody in the cinema walked out during the lift scene….. wuss.

I watched warrior at about the same time too – which was much better IMO.

Very unremarkable. Forgotten most of it already. Rampart much better.

Drive was OK but Drive Angry was so bad it bordered on genius.

I thought it was wicked.

…and so did DezB.

really enjoyed it.

Ryan Gosling has pushed Christian Bale into 2nd on my list 🙂

Oi, Jamie, you blimmin liar 🙂

Loved it.

It was good.

Watched it last night I loved it, wife hated it.

I liked it………………………a lot.

Yeah pretty good, lovely film work.

Soundtrack is great and part of it is currently being used for HTC One ad.

If anyone like the soundtrack, and assume you have got the soundtrack and want more, check out…

Really liked it, the style will Make some hate it. But I really enjoyed it.

It was good and different in an arty farty way!

Watched it this afternoon and whilst I reserve the right to change my opinion completly, i couldnt grt into it, too slow, main charachter very annoying pauses.

Loved it.

Brilliant soundtrack and Gosling even manages to make double denim a viable option once again for the devastatingly handsome thirty-something man. And me.

I thought it was great. And, as somebody said above, I found it very violent in a non graphic way.

Loved it, especially the gleaming soundtrack… I pretty much danced home from the cinema.

Utter shite, then again I have a passion for the truth and logical analysis.

The whole thing was just pathetic, people are coming to kill you with knives, buy a fracking gun, problem solved!

Loved it.

I like Ryan Gosling and his preference for appearing in slightly leftfield films.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

i enjoyed it a lot…took a while to get going but then once it did…. 😀
