Pros: Well the special effects aren't too bad. Cons: Even gearheads won't like this movie.
There's no more excuses, guys. It seems that the Oscar curse has fallen. You know, the one where if someone wins an Academy Award, the odds are great that they won't work in anything decent for years.
It's either that, or the mortgage was...

Pros: Fun if you look for plot holes, gaffs, bad CGI, and unintentional subtext Cons: Not fun if you look for plot, character, depth, or excitement
It's not like cars and cinema aren't too great tastes that go great together, though you might think that from watching Sylvester Stallon and Renny Harlin's wreck of an auto racing comedy (I laughed more than anything else, so darnit, I'm calling it a...

Pros: Well, you COULD be spending two hours in a dentist's chair! Cons: Nah, this is worse.
By this point in his career, Stallone is like that one "black sheep" uncle we all have. You know the guy. Your Mom's one brother that nobody really digs, but he shows up every year or two to show off his new station wagon or borrow 300 bucks....

by Birdfeather - Top 100, Oct 23 '06
Pros: Good acting and action scenes. Cons: Sub plots sucked.
Driven, a 2001 action/drama movie starring Sylvester Stallone and Burt Reynolds is a decent movie that most race car fans will enjoy. It has some great action scenes and a simple story line that even elementary school kids can follow. The sub-plots ...

Pros: Bright colours and stuff Cons: The fact that you can't rate it with no stars.
Hello everybody, this would be my participation in Daumco's excellent "One Star is Too High Write-Off" (h

Pros: High speed Action all the way Cons: None
This movie is adrenalin all the way baby!
Driven was promoted as an awesome racing movie directed by Renny Harlin. People knew that it also had something to do with Sly Stallone. Yes its true. The movie is another one from the winning team of...

by copernicus , Aug 31 '01
Pros: Some of the driving scenes; Estella Warren, sorta Cons: Erm directing, script (argh!), most acting, and pretty much et al
While I realise that writing an opinion at 2:38 in the morning is probably taking things too far, I saw the late session of this movie and besides, I don't have anything much to do in the morning so I can sleep in. Unfortunately, due to the time and...

Pros: EXCELLENT stunts and crashes Cons: horrible cinematography, too many subplots that don't get enough attention
The other night, Jared (jtbmopar) and I decided to go see Driven. After all, Jared absolutely LOVES racing and cars, and I'm actually in the movie. So, we were pretty stoked to go see it.
The night at the movies started out...

Pros: Die-hard auto-racing and action fans will love it. Cons: Character-development is sacrificed to car stunts...and it's deafening!
"Winning's an attitude...You gotta ask yourself if the pleasure is worth the pain...There's no helmet big enough to hold that head...If he doesn't deliver the next time out, he goes...You'd better win this thing or you're gonna look like a damn...

Pros: The action scenes aren't bad, good acting by Gina Gershon Cons: Horribly unrealistic, logic hard to be found at times
Some people have informed me that I tend to really break down a movie I didn’t like. So I thought, why don’t I try to review a bad movie… in a good way? (Obvious reference to “Robin Hood: Men in Tights” not coincidental)
Sorry, Sly...

Pros: Petrol-heads might enjoy it. Cons: Predictable. Unlikable hero. Oppresively loud sound-track. Wooden Characters.
The other day, being bored and with a bit of time on my hands, I wandered down to my local video library and rented a few DVDs. Driven was my third choice (I had a lot of time to kill) and the movie I held out the least hope for of my three...

Pros: None Cons: Everything from A to Z
This epinion is one of those, "If I can help or save just one person, then it was worth it." And for those who may read this and still go, may some higher power save your soul... I have lost mine.
DRIVE is easily, hands down the worst movie...

by Stloraine , May 03 '01
Pros: High speed driving close ups. Excellent acting by Sly Stallone and Til Schweiger. Cons: Women mainly depicted as concerned with getting/losing their men. Gina Gershon overplayed bitter ex-wife.
Sylvester Stallone wrote the screenplay and produced this film which was directed by Renny Harlin. Classified as an action adventure film, I also saw it as a “feel good” movie. The racing scenes are super, having been filmed on five world class racing...

Pros: Nice plot, happy ending for the most part Cons: Realism, realism, realism... :(
Introduction
I don’t profess to be an Indy Car expert, but I know a little bit about them, enough to know that this movie was about 1% realistic.
Still, just as I didn’t dislike Days of Thunder, I found Driven...
