Forum Overview :: Peter Molyneux's The Movies :: Then I can't defend "Drive" for you.

[quote name="Mischief Maker"]The plot is not the selling point of the movie. The main character is not autistic, he's a man of few words who communicates volumes in silence. The intensity of the action and violence is contextually magnified by the tense stillness that bookends it. Compare to Matrix 2's 20 minute car chase. The Mask did allow the Driver to stalk Ron Perlman without being recognized. The synth 80s score is a shout out to Michael Mann and the consummate professional protagonists of his films. It's a film that trusts the audience to fill in the figure out the details that weren't necessary to put on screen. No "Lost my Lightsaber" reaction shots.[/quote]
