Flash Movie Review: Drive

What a great looking movie in the film noir style. I loved the way this film was shot, with some great scenes.  Keep in mind there is graphic violence; but if you want to see a possible Oscar nominee, you have to see Ryan Gosling’s performance. He is simply outstanding here–subtle with minimum dialog, just his expressions speak for themselves. Ryan plays a Hollywood stuntman who moonlights as a driver for criminals. Also, Carey Mulligan puts in a wonderful performance in this dark story.

About moviejoltz

From a long line of movie afficionados, one brother was the #1 renter of movies in the country with Blockbuster, I am following in the same traditions that came before me. To balance out the long hours seated in dark movie theaters, I also teach yoga and cycling. For the past 3 years, I have correctly picked the major Oscar winners... so join me as we explore the wonder of movies and search for that perfect 4 star movie.
