THE DRIVER (2019)
QUALITY = NOBODY CARED
JOY = NOBODY HAD FUN, EXCEPT MAYBE MARK​

94 minutes of movie plus some minutes of credits, and the movie is still a slow burn with too many moments dragging.

Mark Dacascos narrates in a young Clint Eastwood tone, either dumping too much info we don't need, or tell us things we already know.

Every other actor is recorded like this is a cheaply made low budget amateurish 90s - early 2000s film.

Some shots are made as if they filmed this stuff for a BMW advertisement, and just included it here, even the musical notes fit a car advertisement.

If you watched the 1978 Walter Hill movie with the same name then be happy, you watched a good movie. This is not a remake of that movie, and it's just some dumb mess.

There is a shelter town, Mark's character is a driver, and he drives law breakers to be eaten by zombies. His partner in execution started a revolution destroying the town and inviting zombies into it cause.... he wasn't allowed to drive Mark's car, those are his exact words.

And then it turns to a father & daughter road trip movie.



Here are alternatives if you want to watch better movies with some themes from this:

1. Logan
2. Train to Busan
3. The Girl with All the Gifts
4. The Driver (1978)
5. The Transporter (only the first 2002 movie. It might not be good, but at least it functions as a watchable fun movie)

If you read my post and might think this is potentially a so bad it's good kind of film... I will repeat my point about this movie dragging needlessly and the awful narration and voice recording, and tell you it's not worth your time.

Jeez, Dacascos has aged.

Jeez, Dacascos has aged.

Looks like he's not having it as good as Paul Newman did who looked in his 30s when he was almost 50 back in 1974.

This wasn't your typical Charles Bronson movie (that's probably why most people haven't heard of it). It's 1980, Bronson is a border patrol agent whose area is being over run with illegal immigrants, he is short handed and over worked (you'd think it was made last week not 40 years ago).....then one of his men is murdered, and Bronson is on the hunt. This isn't one of the cheap full of overblown action movies he is known for. It is a serious drama with occasional gunfire.....and oh yeah.....Ed Harris is the cold blooded killer and lead human smuggler.

Is that movie worth watching?

Depends. I thought it was alright and enjoyed the stuff with Dennis Quaid and his family, but Topher Grace was very Topher Grace
