Nicolas Winding Refn, the acclaimed director of Bronson and Drive (which we just reviewed) has long said that it would be his dream to direct a Wonder Woman movie. His choice to play the titular lasso-wielding heroine? Christina Hendricks.
Drive is a rarity in cinema. It’s a no-holds barred, shocking, adrenaline filled ride. The film is brimming with its own unique style of slow, brooding noir with splashes of brutal violence that with each additional scene becomes increasingly unsettling. After sitting through this one, you’ll want Ryan Gosling as your driver every time.
