It's like the Transporter without kung fu by way of early-80s Michael Mann with a couple extremely memorable stopovers in Cronenberg country.
Great shit.
Great shit.

'Drive' isn't even the worst offender for this. What an incredibly stupid ans frivolous lawsuit.Originally posted by FilmNerdJamie View Post
By the way...interesting to read that your audience hated it too. This is one of the more polarizing films in recent memory.Originally posted by MartinOriginally posted by gravediggerOriginally posted by MartinComment

I am so glad I have the Drafthouse. If I had to suffer multiplexes I don't think I would be going to the movies very much at all.Originally posted by Balls Mahoney View PostComment

My audience laughed at the balls the movie had in regards to the glimpses of violence. I was proud of them.Comment

I saw it in a theater where I was the only person there.
I threw popcorn in my face because that's how I eat that fucking stuff.
(I did not buy popcorn. But I did chew gum and put my feet on the seats in front of me like Ferris Bueller's dangerous cousin.)
I also larfed at the cranial pyrotechnics. Mostly because they came out of nowhere.Last edited by Captain Russ; 10-10-2011, 03:26 PM.Me quick one want slowComment

Saw it. Loved it.
It's every bit as substantial as it is stylish. Judging from all the unrest in the cinema, this went totally over the heads of most of the people I saw it with, but that didn't diminish my enjoyment one jot. It's fantastic. Beautiful. Filled with great performances. A stellar soundtrack.
I deliberately didn't read much about it beforehand and I'm very glad because the violence wouldn't have been nearly as effective if I'd known it was coming. Gosling really impressed me. He carries it so comfortably it's just a joy to behold. Mulligan, as always, delivers. It would be so easy to gush over this for a few hundred words. But, like the film itself, I'm gonna go for a more understated approach and just leave it at that.

They stretched and got up to go for a dander or probably go home because this didn't have enough "talking" for them. I don't mean to sound like a snob because, as I've said countless times before, I'm the guy who loves Robot Jox (without irony) and stuff like this in exactly the same way. But audiences like them make me appreciate just how great places like the Cornerhouse in Manchester are. They're absolutely invaluable for maximizing experiences like this film offers.Originally posted by BillyG View PostLast edited by Bobby Bear; 10-11-2011, 04:47 PM."The bear is a solitary animal.
