Drive - 10/10
Aside from the parts where Gosling is wearing a mask for absolutely no reason, a perfect movie. The pacing is so well done and the soundtrack is absolutely perfect, if you were planning to see something else this weekend, cancel it and see this instead.

Every review I've read said it was good. I saw some extended clips and seems well made. Definitely have to see this one.

I'd say 9/10. The mask served a very important purpose -- to be creepy as hell in the beach scene.

I think it was more advertising than anything else, the company that makes those masks has made the news several times. One time some Asian dude got on a plan as himself in China (I think), changed into the mask and tried to get into America or something like that. There's videos of them all over Youtube. I'm guessing the company that makes them paid a nice fee to get it featured in the movie.

I just found out the directory also made Valhalla Rising, Bronson and the Pusher series and was hand picked by Gosling to direct. I didn't know I'd seen so much of his previous work.

I dont know....I watched Drive a few nights ago....

It wasnt a movie for me. I guess it was too Artsy for me....and I hated the ending.....made no sense imho

Music wasnt for me and actually my brother and I almost walked out of it.

Maybe I was expecting something else......

I could see that, maybe you were expecting something more like the Transporter series by Jason Statham?

I described it to someone today as high brow Fast & Furious.

Drive 5/10. I liked Ryan Gosling's character, but everyone else was flat and brought little to their character except many Shannon and Bernie.

The gratuitous female nudity was not necessary imo, and did not add to the scenes.

The feel of the movie reminded me a lot of No Country for Old Men, although I liked No Country better.

I watched the classic A Star is Born, with Judy Garland. Pretty good considering I hate chick flicks and musicals....

I get down on Hollywood a lot, so a friend of mine recommended this. It was pretty cool and sort of shows the rise and fall of stars and how the structure can be sort of harsh. Of course, I'm a bit more analytical so there were things going on in the film I don't think she was watching.

All in all, 4 of 5. Beware: it's long.

Watched Drive Angry and Blood Rayne the Third Reich.

Both "paranormal horror" style movies.

Drive Angry was slow and drawn out, then went too fast at the end, but some of the action was decent, and the cars were the BEST! So I give it a 6.

Blood Rayne was based on the video game series, and set in **** Germany, it was goofy sometimes, and the nude sex scene at the cat house was uncalled for, but the action and violence was good, so I give it a 5.

changing it to 9/10, I missed a lot the first time, and reading up on the scorpion and frog fable really changed how I'm viewing this movie.

I love this line

"My hands are dirty...that's okay, so are mine." LOVE LOVE

Love the last elevator scene where he stays on the elevator with the guy and she leaves. He realizes at that moment the stark difference in their life.

took away 1 for the gratuitous female nudity.

Contagion - 6/10. I'm not really sure what the point of this movie is except to go, look at this terrible thing that could happen...but not in too much detail because we're going to spend time on threads of our "story" that go nowhere. Actually 6/10 might be too high.

There's an entire sub"plot" with Jude Law that goes nowhere, and another with the chick from Inception (too lazy to look up her name) that is also forgotten for a long stretch and ends up being pretty meaningless. Really, the movie is a lot of subplots connected to a single idea (the contagion), but they are all over the place and the overall film is without any real cohesive structure or purpose.

Took my daughter to see Dolphin Tale today. I had low expectations going in, but I have to say I liked it. My daughter loved it. It's her new favorite movie. Sure, it is predictable, and it is full of cliches... But that is kind of true for most kids/family movies. Despite those things, I still liked it - Probably because I was with my 9 yr old daughter & seeing it (at least partly) through her eyes. Definitely not a 'guys night out' movie, but if you have kids, check out the matinee & leave you inner high-brow critic at home. B.

Drive - 9.5 / 10 ... take away or quiet down the cheesy techno music and it would have been a perfect movie.

Everything Must Go 7/10

A calmer, gentler Will Ferrell for a change.

I'm not a big baseball guy, would you still recommend it? Looks interesting, but not even a big Jonah Hill fan either.
