Drive (2011)
Killer Soundtrack. Dark. Moody. Intense til the last minute.
This movie is incredible from start to finish. I saw it when it first came out in 2011 & just watched it again & enjoyed it even more the second time. It's suspense right from the jump. I've never seen a movie that creates so much from silence. The silent scenes were the most intense. The chemistry between Ryan & Carrie was palpable. The only reason I'm not giving this a ten is I wish I'd seen a little more between them. Everything else was top notch. The music. Nightcall by Krazinsky is still a regular in my rotation since seeing this movie the first time 13 years ago. The soundtrack def gave this movie a flare. This movie was moody, dark & intense. It keeps you on the edge of your seat the entire time. Highly recommend!
Road House (2024)
Hot Jake! Luke warm movie
It started off good! If you're a Jake fan then you'll like it. His character is endearing & very easy in the eyes. 😅 I liked the side characters like the daughter from the book store & the bartenders in the Road House Bar. It even seemed like a romance was brewing. But then it went straight down action land with bar brawls on top of bar brawls. It just got really boring & predictable. The bad guys just got worse & more obnoxious & then it was over! Not enough storyline to keep it going. I wanted to see more substance & development with each of the characters. But it just never got there. It def kept my attention but only because it was Jake showing off his hot ripped body on multiple occasions. Otherwise I would have been out long before the end.
Gone in the Night (2022)
Intense but def loses momentum
This started off great. Intense. Strange. Intriguing. And then continues to get stranger as the movie goes. The plot became more & more ridiculous until finally it was just so over the top that I was laughing at the end. Winona was great. Even until the last scene. But at that point I was so disinterested. I was routing for her character though. And I think she played it perfectly. If nothing else you'll be entertained. But overall it was a ridiculous plot that could have been so much better. Disappointed in Dermot Mulroney though who I love & loved him & Winona together in The America Quilt! Great 90's love story. Was pleased to see them together again but his character was awful.
