Drive

THRILLERS
Drive is a film about a man who is a very talented driver, to the point its all he know how to do. He gets involved with gangs trying to break his friends husbands contract.

This Thriller is one of the best I've seen in a long while. It uses tense moments to spur the viewer on to find out what happens later on. it invlolves un expected twists and intriguing scenes. It also uses the main character as a main interest to the viewers as hes very strange. We see the film from his perspective but we know nothing about him. this makes us watch on. The main character is seen as socially awkward and almost like a kid in a mans body who is unsure of the world, or so he appears. This intrigues the viewers to find out more about him.

In this scene we see a tense getaway scene, that fits in well for an opening scene. typicall of thrillers we start of in what seem like an un related scene, to almost just show you what the film is about but also not give anything away about the story line. just to set the veiwer up for the main storyline, which seems quite effective to me. This scene creates tension by trying not to be found out smarting the enemy, and then nearly being on the brink of being found, them racing away and then hiding.
