About

You’ll likely enjoy Drive if you want fast, high-energy martial arts action with plenty of humor and momentum; Not for you if you want a serious, fully fleshed-out thriller or if you strongly prefer movies like Rush Hour or Demolition Man.

Pros: nonstop action-fueled fun; inventiveness in fights; strong buddy energy | Cons: sci-fi plot feels thin; comedy may miss; some reviewers dislike pacing
