Drive-9/10

The first thing to emphasize is that Drive is not a pure action movie, but a literary film that contains a lot of action elements. I am surprised that this movie has a sense of art in many places. The second half of the film is very bloody, but it is not a simple violent aesthetic; the drag racing part of the film is very eye-catching, but it is very different from the speed and passion. After all, the biggest success of this movie is the wonderful story and the flesh-and-blood characters. In addition, the director chose the right angle of the camera, which directly added the artistic beauty to the film. For example, there are many shots that express the simple affection between the hero and the protagonist very subtle and beautiful. Personally, I still like the revenge by the sea the most. In that scene, there was a kind of Quentin demeanor. . Ryan Gosling is indeed very ambitious. Each of his new films has made new breakthroughs on the road, and he belongs to the type of acting school that boys and girls will like. This is a movie with a unique and thoughtful idea. It is highly recommended!

[first lines]
Driver: [on phone] There's a hundred-thousand streets in this city. You don't need to know the route. You give me a time and a place, I give you a five minute window. Anything happens in that five minutes and I'm yours. No matter what. Anything happens a minute either side of that and you're on your own. Do you understand?
[pause]
Driver: Good. And you won't be able to reach me on this phone again.

Shannon: [to Driver] A lot of guys mess around with married women, but you're the only one I know who robs a joint just to pay back the husband. Crazy.
