It's me, it's me, it's the V, A, D, E, R...yeah that didn't look as good typed as it did when I said it in my head.... I'm so so sorry.
Annnnnnnyyyyywaaaaaayyyyssss, how you all doing? Well I hope?? I know I've neglected you all for months and months and the truth is...I just couldn't be bothered. Poor show from me I know but I just didn't have the energy to try to be funny and to give you all what you want.
THIS. HAS. CHANGED.
So enough of the pontificating and catching up, I bet you're dying to know what the title of this post is all about.....yes I thought so. If you have any brains, you'll notice that this is a common saying, but what's missing...
CRASH.
Well done kiddies, but what also goes with Crash? Well to crash you have to be in a.....
CAR.
Well done again, I'm so proud right now. Ok so if you're in a car, to crash it you have to be.....
NO!!! Not speeding but you have to be able to....
DRIVE
AHA...See what I did there??? Ahem.....
So let's get on it like a car bonnet.....or a chicken burger (Yeah, I don't know either)...or whatever it is the youth of today says...
First things first the story. It follows, well his name is "The Driver" that's it. Took them ages to think of that didn't it? He drives getaway vehicles for naughty baddies, but and here's the twist....he's also a stunt driver in the movies. OOOOH AHHHH.
Yeah, so, he drives, a lot.
Meets his neighbour, you can tell he wants a bit, makes friends with her little son, her husband comes out of jail, falls in with bad people again, Driver helps him, things go tits up, Driver tries to sort it.
Doesn't sound much but it has a lot of things going for it.....you ready??
THE DRIVER BARELY SAYS A WORD - This is true he doesn't and it works something stupid!!! It shows Ryan Gosling for what he is, a fantastic actor. The man can do no wrong in my eyes as it is but seeing him in this role, his actions, his facial expressions, just wow. I also think I've developed a little man crush on the man but shh.
THE ACTION IS AMAZING - This is also true. For a film shot without a massive budget the set pieces that the director squeezes out are genius, may I also add you wish after watching this that you could drive like that!
THE SOUNDTRACK IS EASILY ONE OF THE BEST THINGS EVER - Ok so this is where I get far too excited, this soundtrack is just.....well it rocks! From Kavinsky through to Desire and College and then finishing up with Cliff Martinez's score, it's a whirlwind of electronica inspired pop which fits in with the neon drenching of the film. For a brilliant example please avert your eyes to the little video window below...
See what I mean?? Amazing
HE WEARS A GOD DAMN WHITE JACKET WITH A BIG FUCK OFF GOLDEN SCORPION STITCHED INTO THE BACK - Need I say any more??
So to finish up......SHIT...Almost forget my precious', the trailer for your perusal...
Now it is time......
I award DRIVE..... 5 VADER WINKS and I am proud to award it...
VADER CLASSIC STATUS!!!!!!!
So there we go, I love this film, I love the soundtrack and I love Ryan Gosling but most of all I love you all.....ok well maybe not you Dave Fielding, you send me some weird things and say some things which make me question your sanity, also you admitted you come on here to see Bart's penis (Yes I'm still having trouble with that!!!)
I should be back soon as I've enjoyed doing this again and I've seen enough to actually write a few things so....
VADER OUT.
