The awkwardness of their first scenes works perfectly. Their chemistry is so obvious and the film makes you feel uncomfortable because it's like you're intruding on those very personal and private moments. I also just love a film that takes it's time and doesn't rush things. I need to soak up the atmosphere, the location, the sounds and get to know the people involved; even if they don't give much away.

Very rare to find a film that’s a complete package where every little element fits in seamlessly from the very beginning to the ambiguous ending. The film’s overall atmosphere, aesthetic, and mystique-from the music, typography, long pauses, sparse dialogue, tender moments and brutal violence-coalesced into a cinematic experience that’s truly memorable and bittersweet. It’s an experience you can’t resist revisiting over and over again. 😊

So much of the movie is about Gossling hiding his true nature from Irene and her son. ------- When it's time to come forth it comes out with a vengeance. ------- I loved the goodbye kiss he gives her in the elevator before he shows the part of himself he has been hiding. -------- The scorpion jacket gives a hint as to his true nature. Silent and unassuming until it's time to unleash a deadly strike. -------- Not to mention the Killer soundtrack. I stream it constantly after watching this movie. Love it!

I love how Driver’s demeanor changes when it’s a matter of someone he cares about. Every other situation he’s cold blooded and hard boiled, but when it’s Irene, he looks like a scared little boy. When he brings her the news of what happened to Standard and after stomping the hitman to death, this steely eyed gangster gets this submissive look on him that is reminiscent of a child knowing that he disappointed his parents. Really phenomenal character acting.

While I know it seems unrealistic with people being able to spark a relationship with very few words like that, a part of me also wishes constant talking wasn't so necessary in real life.

In my opinion this tiny masterpiece is what made me realise that Mr. Gosling could do more than look good. The whole film is a testament to the vision of the film maker and the talent of the assembled cast. Not since Max Ophuls, excuse the absent umlaut, has a film's lighting, visuals and cinematography combined to produce such a beautiful yet desolate image. The look on Gosling's face as she runs from the elevator beatdown is the death of hope and the end of innocence, and end he blames himself for...I have seen this film more than 10 times and each viewing is a revelation, like a good Beatles song it reveals more each time you encounter it. I dislike hyperbole, but this is a work of near genius. I enjoy watching your responses Miss, and shall keep watching.

I love this movie so much. It takes its time and, even though the dialogue doesn't explain everything, the story gets its point across. The moment the movie hit the hardest was when the Driver locked the door and put on his gloves while facing Blanche. And when he killed for the first time in front of us, after for so long, he seemed like the unassuming and shy, but competent type. "The Scorpion and the Frog"motif is clear. Its in his nature and at the end, he has to reveal that nature to save Irene. The kiss is his goodbye. Her trying to find him in the end at his apartment was heartbreaking though. Even though she saw who he was and ran, she still loved him. And he didn't know.

Drive, No Country For Old Men, Gone Baby Gone, Law Abiding Citizen and a host of other films remind me of how effective the medium can be in the right hands. Remember the story about the scorpion and the toad? Goslings' character is basically, in my opinion, the scorpion, and everyone else unsure or his true nature! Reminds me of Joey in A History Of Violence. 😂😂😂 Ladies! Ladies! I think you gotta go through Eva Mendes to get to Ryan! 😂😂😂
@Grnademaster6 ай бұрын
I think saying the Driver is the scorpion is too simplistic for this film. You may be unsure of his nature, but you are not unsure of a scorpion's nature. Would you pet a scorpion? Kiss it, cuddle it, or sleep with it like you would your cat or dog? The answer is no, because you know it's nature. It can sting or pinch you at any time and for no reason. I know not all scorpions are deadly poisonous, but its toxicity level doesn't change its nature. The scorpion is on the Driver's jacket, literally on his back. Just like the story of the scorpion and the frog. Perhaps he is the frog, or perhaps he is both. I don't know the right answer. I guess the director is the one to ask.
