The trailer short changed this film and people will either get more or less than expected. I got much more, but I get those that didn't.
There is little praise left to give to Drive that has not already been said here. For me, director Refn can do no wrong and his Euro stylings bring this neo-noir gorgeously to the screen.
Ryan Gosling gave one of his best performance; incredibly controlled, his face says nothing, his smile everything... then later he stops smiling and you see what he conceals.
Albert Brooks was fantastic, a couple of his scenes are quite unnerving.
Ron Perlman usually plays great characters, often with a little fun, and I always look forward when I see him credited. I did not enjoy his performance here to the point that I think he was miscast.
Mulligan is beautiful and sadly that was all that stood out for me. Her character was pretty standard fare but handled well.
Soundtrack, cinematography, his jacket; all perfect.
