Look out Fast Five, there’s a new car movie in town! The movie is called Drive and it is filled with fast cars, bad guys, crime and an attractive cast. But before you pin this movie as just another car flick, check out the action-packed trailer.
The movie stars Ryan Gosling as a movie stunt driver. However, Gosling’s character is leading a double life and finds himself driving getaway cars for LA area criminals at night. Although naturally a loner, Gosling’s character falls for his next door neighbor, Irene (played by Carey Mulligan), a young mother raising her son while her husband serves out his prison time. Upon release of her husband, Standard (played by Oscar Isaac), Irene is thrown into a life of danger.
Gosling’s character is hired to drive for a heist to pay off Standard’s protection money but it goes bad, causing Gosling’s character to shift courses and protect Irene and her son against gangsters, two of which are played by Albert Brooks and Ron Perlman, that are after them and the protection money.
This action thriller is sure to have something for everyone. Whether you’re after the car chases, criminal activity or unconventional love story, Drive is the next big car movie to come to the big screen. The movie is set to debut in theaters on September 16th.
