Now i will start this by saying I am only twenty three years old, therefore I was not even born at the time such classics like this were released. However I have watched every action movie to ever come out, despite the big budget blockbusters nowadays, that I still enjoy, movies like this will always stand the test of time. For these films weren't classics because of a budget, but for the characters. Anybody whoever in any way studied the art of writing knows that character is the most important part to any story ever told. The new action movies May have Better shootouts, but if you can appreciate not just that, but character and writing then this is a great film, if you don't agree then go to hell cuz you still don't know what a great action movie is. Shame on you if you can't appreciate action cinema at its finest. Seriously if you call yourself an action fan but hate this movie and others like it then just shoot yourself, because you will never appreciate true cinema
I admit when this was coming out the previews I saw got me ready for a high octane action movie, and at first I was disappointed, but still couldn't get this movie out of my head for some reason. So after going back to rewatch it I take it for what it is...at parts a homage to the 80s, but at its core a film that's only real storyline is that of its characters. Ryan Gosling isn't given much to say but that does not downplay his acting in this, he pulls off our nameless, dark and brooding hero exceptionally well. While the film may not be loaded with action scenes that's probably because the violence here wasn't meant as action, but as raw unflinching violence, and when I say raw I mean it. The very few violent scenes at the end of this film will shock viewers for the first time seeing them, and will leave quite an impression. All in all, if you want a Michael Bay style film then your in the wrong place, but if your in the mood to get sucked into the lives of characters, and root for a hero who says little, but can still be as cruel as any criminal in the film, then look no further. Ryan Goslings Drive is an incredible, character driven thriller that will leave you breathless.
Ten out of ten doesn't even do justice. Ryan Reynolds and Deadpool have torn apart what you expect from a superhero movie and now offer you a comic book franchise that no other studio can, they have given you a superhero film for strictly adults only. There were 10-12 year olds in the theater, if you let anyone under 16 see this then you are a horrible parent. Deadpool earns its R rating the hard way, lots of brutal violence, lots of nudity and excessive language. Does anyone else miss the old days when our action heroes were in your face brutal, unforgiving and not afraid to use bad language? Take the original Blade for example, it worked brilliantly. Now imagine that with five times the language, more stylized action and a boatload of laughs. I literally laughed from start to finish with this movie, but still found our hero incredibly badass. What do I mean by this changes everything? Fox now has the one thing no other studio does, an over the top hero not only worthy, but demanding of an R rating. Now Warner Bros, Sony and even Marvel Studios will guarantee follow suit. I believe we could now get R rated Wolverine, maybe R rated Batman even. Point is that it is now proved that you can go true to your comic, aim for adults and not just succeed, but bring me back. I'm going tomorrow to make twice in 2 days. If your over 18 and don't like it, then hang yourself, cuz you'll never be entertained.
