  • Driving in Standard

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Aug 1, 2007
    Pros: The words adorable and sweet come to mind. Rupert Grint is cute.
    Cons: Another bland "indie" film that never escapes independent conventions.

    Pros: Can't think of one
    Cons: Pretty countryside

  • Driving lessons to . . . nowhere in particular

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jan 6, 2008
    Pros: Julie Walters and some moments of fun in the film
    Cons: Ms. Linney and a general lack of control of the story as a whole

    Summary: I think, after just shy of 300 reviews (the remainder in my total are essays), that the hardest thing to review is an item that is mediocre. It seems to require a balance that is as hard to handle in print as it is to watch on the screen—where to start, ... read more
