Driver from Hell

My quick rating - 3,6/10. Strange to rate this as a fictional movie, the whole thing is basically "how to shoot cameras from in the car, outside the car, near the car." This is all done to show new film makers the proper way to highlight the scenery, characters, etc. Did this movie intend to be anything but a flick showing how to film? Sort of, there was an occasional reference to a tow truck driver chasing after the two dumb girls in the car (I only call them dumb because of how they act in the movie. Would love to see them rolling their eyes when they read the script). I will say that this movie is very odd indeed since it could appeal to fans of "joy ride" and also could get notice from the school of film making wherever these kids were from, but combined together makes for a really boring movie.

How does a heavy wrecker tow truck (while also towing another car) consistently keep pace with a 2013 5.0 Mustang GT? The mustang can go 0-60 in 4.3 seconds. The heavy wrecker can go 0-60 in 30 seconds. The mustang's top speed is 155 mph while the heavy wreckers top speed is 75 mph. This whole movie is impossible and boring.

I always feel bad giving terrible reviews because ultimately this was other people's vision, budget and time but this movie is really, really, really bad. The very fact that the tow truck could outrun the Mustang causes the movie to immediately lose so much credibility that the movie is already in a hole that it cannot get itself out of.

And as others have said, it's essentially a rip off of Duel.

Wrecker is in fact what we can say a kind of rip-off of the famous Steven Spielberg flick Duel (1971). Two girls in a Ford Mustang are suddenly being chased by a tow truck without any reason, the driver is never shown and nothing is explained. So far that can't be a problem but what do makes it hard to watch is the acting and the story.

The first 15 minutes I could dig and it all started rather good with an old Ford being broken down at , you guessed it, a road with Devil in it and no cell phone reception. But after 15 minutes the road goes down together with the flick. The acting of Anna Hutchison is below zero. Normally I can stand screaming girls but she doesn't understand it at all. Of course it's also her character that makes her a stupid blond. When a car is left alone on a bridge she can passes it easily but she stops just in front of that broken car, and there are so many things that doesn't make sense. The cop stopping her makes no sense at all. The gas attendant is acting terrible when she waves her gun. How her girlfriend is being put in the trunk of the Mustang is a don't know, at the diner the way she reacts is a girl with big issues.

Towards the end there's use of bad CGI can't explain when not to spoil what is happening but it's really bad CGI.

What I did enjoy was the Ford Mustang and the truck. Like the tow truck is doing it should better tow this flick to the dumpster.

I wasn't expecting much when I watched this movie. I had low expectations but then I realized 10 min in I needed to lower my expectations even more. This was so bad!!!!!!!!!!!!! The way it was filmed , the writing , the acting. these people didn't get paid to do this did they? Yes, Ana looks great but she shouldn't act. Because she can't!!!!!!!!!!! They kept flashing in on the speedometer of the car and you know it wasn't moving that fast. Became pretty funny after awhile. Now I didn't finish watching it, it was that bad, that I had to turn it off and put in another movie. I will go back and torture myself and finish it at a later time. but , please do yourself a favor and DON'T watch this and spare yourself!!!!!!!!
