Drive Back

This movie was good, don't get me wrong. The plot of being stuck in a time vortex and needing to go through the same experiences but with your past self walking around. The story has twists and turns that are interesting..however, the stupidity of the characters during the beginning had me super angry. They get better as time moves on, but their stupidity almost made me stop watching due to anger. Again, not a bad movie. But it wasn't necessarily good either. Overall, the acting is pretty alright, and there wasn't too much gore to where it was just straight up GORE and just gore. The ending was a little confusing but not the worst I've ever seen. Overall, a solid 5/10. Not good, but not bad either.

The first half of the movie was going in circles and nothing happened. The movie lost me almost at the first quarter when I didn't care about the characters anymore.

Some of the scenes were too long, with basic dialogues and poor acting. At some point I just wanted the movie to be over.

Now, while I had indeed never heard about this 2024 horror movie titled "Drive Back", I opted to watch it on account of it being a horror movie. Sure, I didn't know what I was getting into here, aside from whatever little information was shared by the movie's synopsis. So in a sense, I suppose, then writer Jon Sarro and director Cody Ashford had every opportunity to impress and entertain me.

Writer Jon Sarro put together a fair enough movie, at least for the most parts. However, I have to say that the movie sort stagnates into the final third part, and my interest in the narrative started to wane. There just simply wasn't all that much going on to keep me overly entertained. Perhaps I've just watched too many horror movies of a similar theme and thus found "Drive Back" to sort of be a bit vague.

I was actually not familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, aside from actor Zack Gold, and that is indeed something that I enjoy whenever I sit down to watch a movie; seeing new and unfamiliar talents on the screen, without associating them with previously portrayed characters in other movies. The acting performances in "Drive Back" were good.

I found "Drive Back" to be a semi-suitable enough movie for a single viewing, though this was hardly a movie I would recommend. Nor is it a movie that I will ever return to watch a second time.

My rating of "Drive Back" lands on a four out of ten stars.

"Drive Back" is an exciting 10/10 movie that mixes fun and fear. The story is about a couple who are coming home from their engagement party, but their trip takes a scary turn when they meet strange people in the woods. The spooky scenes and beautiful pictures make you feel like you are right there with them. The actors do a great job showing how scared they are. Each surprise in the story keeps you guessing, and it doesn't use the same old tricks that other scary movies do. The tension builds up really well, leading to an amazing ending that will leave you surprised. For anyone who loves thrilling stories, "Drive Back" is a must-see movie that you will remember long after watching it. It shows how quickly a happy moment can change into something scary, making it a perfect choice for a fun movie night!

Those that haven't seen YellowBrick Road, Dead End, In Fear or the recent lame ' Black Cab' may find more to enjoy than I did, this takes from them films ad nauseum that I was mentally ticking off the tropes this film brought up.

Any film that has a ' road to nowhere' set up with a family/couple bringing their own emotional baggage to these supernatural unknown powers goes through cliches-a creepy garage at the start, dark albeit lush forests, a ghostly person with a secret on the road, time bending, events of the past coming up to the future, secrets, deja vu, on and on.

The acting is okay.
