Ara Paiaya in Night Driver (2005)

User reviews

Night Driver

12 reviews
2/10

Spoof

I can only presume that the 10/10 reviews are made by people involved in this film or their friends and family.

For what it is, essentially, a movie enthusiast making an elaborate home movie, I guess it is OK, but it's not something you ever want to watch, unless you're watching ironically.

If you ever watched "The Goldbergs" where Adam Goldberg would get his friends and family to star in his home video remakes of famous films... well this is what happens when one of those home videos finds it's way onto Amazon Prime.

I'm honestly surprised that the copyright holders for Knight Rider haven't gone after this.

Look Away

Quantifiably the worst movie I've ever seen.

If you value your time, integrity, or ocular faculties, avoid this flick at all cost. Neither parody nor exploitation, simply a cross of elements popular to other filmmakers with more talent (and in some cases less budget), Night Driver succeeds exactly nowhere.

yes, it's bad. but it's hilarious.

I laughed a lot watching this movie.

There are a lot of bad movies on Tubi, and they're just boring and bad. This one was enjoyable at how some guy just wanted to make a movie and had probably more money for it than he should have...

swords, guns, ninjas, unnecessary dubbed lines and a knockoff Kitt car... because why not. They embraced that it's not a hollywood movie, i'd rather watch this again than pay money to see a 'good' movie.

Oh and the bad guy that modeled his accent after his memories of playing super mario brothers as a kid with adding -ah to the end of every word is fantastic...

I would give it less stars if the rating went below one.

I have not laughed so much in a long time.

""" my opinion only...you can watch and rate your own way """

Not 6.1 in my opinion.... Maybe 1.6 at a pinch.

A grade . NO. B grade NO c,d,e,f,g, grade.. NO/ try something lower.

So bad it is funny. Have not seen anything like this since "attack of the killer tomatoes" ( my fav movie of all time )

Enjoy...... If you like it, good for you.

If you only get through 10 minutes and turn off... all I can say is .... ha ha ha ha..... ( made you watch )

Not KITT(ing)

Pun very much intended - I actually thought about writing "a lot of love for this movie" as a summary line. Of course also mentioning that this is only valid if you count 30plus ratings as a lot. Still and while this may not represent your view or taste - that is quite a feat to achieve. And I will just assume that it is not only cast and crew that voted here.

I was going to go with a 7 - but you know what? Why not go big (I am home writing this, so there was no other option available anyway). The humor is something you have to dig - otherwise the movie will annoy you. It is a spoof and the dubbing only adds another layer to it all. I wonder if the voices of the actors were bad or if they just did it for the fun of it. To be honest my guess would be the latter.

The action and stuts are really well done. Whatever you may think of the spoofs and making fun (paying homage) to other titles (especially from the 80s, one big one being the Knight Rider - you see what they did with the title there?) ... it will be imperative. Just try to be silly, like the movie. And you will have fun - a lot of fun that is. Some love for low budget movies goes a long way too.

Not a spoof; a very amateurish homage

Stumbled upon this one on Tubi and started watching out of sheer disbelief at the Knight Rider poster. I imagined it might be a Bollywood knockoff of the show using borrowed footage or something, but no: it would seem a filmmaker in Scotland got his hands on a KITT replica and went about making a feature length movie with it.

It's hard to know how to scale a review for a film like this. On one hand, it's clearly an amateur production, and to criticize it would feel like laying into a five year-old's recorder recital. On the other... this is an actual, real movie, streamed on Tubi and given an IMDb entry. There's a gulf in quality between the expectations associated with that and, well... this. Imagine the kind of movie a teenager might make with a camcorder he just got for Christmas, but with more money to spend.

Ultimately, what sinks this is the script. Making an homage to Knight Rider would be fine if it was done skillfully, but if you don't have the experience for that, then at least bring some new ideas to the table. The plot's nonexistent, the conflicts are unearned, the jokes are borrowed and out of place. As another reviewer remarked here, this film succeeds in exactly nothing.

All that said, I finished it, which is more than can be said for some films with much higher ratings.

Must Watch!

I watched this with my girlfriend and she thought this was the best movie ever! She would want to watch this over again. The actors do great and the realism in the effects are just wild!! This is extremely professionally made!

Please watch this movie you will not regret making the decision to watch this movie. This movie has great scenes in it, picture quality is excellent for the time era when it was released (2005). I have always been a fan of Ara Paiaya and the movies he played in were all works of art. I could not look away from the screen or lesve the room because i was very into the movie!

Magnificent!

I've read the reviews on here for this film because I'm the type of person to look at reviews before I decide to waste time watching a movie thats terrible. But fortunately for me I was in luck. Some left 1 star and some left 10. So I balanced my judgement and decided to watch this anyway. I am very impressed by this movie with the quality and the action. I dont believe any film can beat this. I am very disappointed with some of the bad reviews, they are obviously trolls!! I almost got steered away from something so professional and something so magnificent! I think this is the type of movie to add to your watch list!

Amazing

This is a masterpiece! I have never seen a movie with such great actors! This movie is worth watching if you are interested to watch something entertaining. If you are into movies that have bad guys good guys this is fit for that and it will knock your socks off!!

I love the aspect of the setting, the city, criminals, guns, etc. You can't ask much better.

I got on here to check reviews and I feel a little offended as a viewer. I was pretty upset with the liars on here that gave it a 1 start obviously out of jealousy that these actors are PURE PROFESSIONAL. This movie is an all time original. An all time classic. I have watched this movie 3 times!
