Drive.

How have I NOT done a Drive review yet? HUH????!!? That's just crazy talk. This is by far, my favorite movie since 2011. And it might stay that way for a very very long time. I went into the theater expecting a full on adrenaline rush of a movie with crazy car chases. When I left the theater, I had no words. It was SO not what I expected, but in a very good way. I would have been sick of yet another car chase movie and this was anything but. People either love or hate this movie and I happen to fall into the LOVE column. This is a pretty slow paced movie so those of you that don't have patience, you might not enjoy it. But the slowness is worth the wait. Ryan Gosling's character is incredible he's a romantic quiet man who bursts out with darkness. And you know what else? The Soundtrack. I think this movie has THE best soundtrack of any movie I have ever seen. I'm practically obsessed with this movie and even proceeded to purchase two of the soundtrack vinyls just because they art work was different on both.

This is a must see movie. You will be on the edge of your seat. Go watch it! And this director, I haven't seen any of his previous films but from now on, I will be watching all of them. He is now on my list of directors to watch out for. I watched about 15 minutes of Valhalla Rising, and it looks incredible. Await my review of that movie!
