I went to see the new Ryan Gosling film, Drive, tonight with my friend Alicia . I was excited to see it because a) Ryan Gosling is gorgeous so any movie with him in it I enjoy b) Christina Hendricks is in it and she’s my new fav since I started watching Mad Men and c) it looked like it could be interesting.
Luckily we were informed right before that this was going to be a VERY gory movie. And gory it was! My god….I had my hands in front of my eyes for 60% of it because of all the gore. I felt like I was watching a horror movie.
Well maybe I’m being a little dramatic. The people in the row in front of me and beside me didnt even seem to be flinching. But Alicia and I sure were.
Besides the gore, I could tell that this movie was beautifully filmed. There wasn’t a lot of dialogue in most parts, and the music would just play in the background. But it was different and I liked it a lot. The plot of the movie is about Ryan’s character who drives the getaway car for criminals. He’s very good at what he does but finds himself in deep sh*t when he falls in love with a girl Irene, played by Carey Mulligan.
It’s definitely a movie I would still recommend people to go see. I plan on getting the soundtrack as well. Great music in this film!
