Review of Drive Angry (2011) by Scott H — 23 Jul 2011
Ok, well, by know you should know that this is not going to have stellar performances, a captivating script or break new ground in storytelling. But then again, I'd be somewhat let down it that was the case.
It never tries to be any of those things, nor should it. It is loud, fast paced, loaded with over the top violence and explosions and sexy women. Drive Angry feels a lot like Shoot 'em Up or Crank, but manages to differenciate itself from it's predecessors.
The actors all manage to bring characters to life enough to suit the story, but I must say that William Fichtner was the most entertaining to watch through the film. The only downside was that the villian throughout the movie seemed to be a little too over the top for my liking, but didn't really detract too much from the overall movie.
The story is petty standard for this type of film, but it manages to serve the movie well enough. Pretty standard action fare, but a fun enough ride if you just turn off your rational mind and go along with it.
