Drive - 1/10

Probably the most overrated pretentious garbage movie I've ever seen. It starts out so promising but after that first three minutes, watching the two love interests look at each other like a pair of autistic peasants makes me feel like anyone recommending this movie is trolling. The plot makes no sense, huge waste of any talent that entered the movie, and I would honestly rather watch all 4 Transformers movies in a row then let even one minute of this drivel touch my screen again. I give it a 1 because I kinda do like that Human Bean song, and it was pretty. I will punch that rear end-hat Refn in his stupid face if i ever see him in real life because of this poo poo, however.
What's the least overrated pretentious garbage movie you've ever seen?

I mean, fantastic editing and sound mixing, but everything else about it was middling at best.

I'm no big fan of Drive, but I felt like Baby Driver had almost no identity of its own and, despite apparently being a passion project, felt designed by committee to appeal to the broadest possible audience in order to and also sell itunes soundtracks.

Wouldn't the way 2 do that be the Suicide Squad route of licensing new music from current popstars, or, alternatively, including any music from current pop stars? Like, not packed with Drake tracks, not hearin a turn timed 2 a Migos ad-lib.

A Quiet Place - 4.5/5. Really enjoyed this, fantastic directorial debut for John Krasinski. The story is small and contained and the film respects its concept which is what makes it work so well. The characters are smart and the performances are fantastic. A couple of hokey beats but overall I loved it.

Absolutely not his directorial debut & I highly recommend the portion of the round table interview he's on where after Michael Haneke details why he finds films like Downfall/etc. irresponsible to make in their use of human suffering as drama the moderator throws it to him & he essentially makes an accidental Jim Halpert face
