Review of Drive

Drive (I) (2011)
10/10
Best movie of 2011
11 December 2011
Well, I guess its all said in the title. I actually cannot even think of a better movie right away from the last decade! This movie has it all...fantastic acting, a strange but warm atmosphere, no dialogue where the superb music does the job to get the emotion through, little gestures of the actors that make a scene more thoughtful than multimillion dollar effects.

I have to say that I am not a fan of Gosling, but to imagine any other actor to play this role is impossible. Since its supposedly a remake of the 70's movie Driver I watched that one too and have to say that although there are similarities its a total different movie.

Its not the right movie for people who expect action throughout, expect long lasting words with no meaning in the end, but its a movie for people who can empathize with the characters, feel and suffer with them surrounded by a perfect soundtrack.

The only "negative" aspect I can think of, why the heck does it take so long to come out as DVD...I saw it 5times already and its becoming expensive! ;-) Anyhow, conclusion: PERFECT MOVIE! Thanks to the directors, actors and producers who made it possible.
