Customer Reviews of Driven
Dumb but Entertaining Cart Racing flick. An Talented Retired Veteran Driver (Sylvester Stallone) is been asked by his former boss (Burt Reynolds) to train, a talented but Unfocused Rookie Contender (Kip Pardue). The Rookie destructive behavoir is Slowly turned apart by his brother (Robert Sean Leonard), the girl-he's in love with (Estella Warren) and his primary racing rival (Til Schweiger).
Directed by Renny Harlin (A Nightmare on Elm Street 4:The Dream Master, Die Hard 2:Die Harder, Deep Blue Sea) made a familiar but extremely underrated (at time stupid) race cart film. Stallone wrote the Screenplay from a Story by Jan Skrentny & Neal Tabachnick. The film also stars:Stacy Edwards, Gina Gershon, Brent Biscoe & Cristian de la Fuente. This was a huge Box Office Flop but it did fine on Video & DVD. DVD's has an terrific anamorphic Widescreen (2.35:1) transfer & an strong-Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound. DVD Extras are:Commentary Track by the Director, Deleted Scenes with/without Commentary by Stallone, Behind the Scene featurettes & more. This might be far from Stallone's best films but it's worth a look. Super 35. Grade:A-.
The perfect racing movie for a family to see
I have watched CART racing for years and have adapted a reasonable working knowledge of many forms of motorsports. By saying that, Driven may not have been the finest auto racing movie of all-times, but is a respectable and enjoyable adaptation of the ultimate speed sport. As Champ cars blow by at speeds of near 150 MPH conservatively, Renny Harlin provided excellent camera shots giving a new appreciation of motorsports in the movies, in a fashion that was never seen since Grand Prix or Le Mans.
The movie itself was very creative and enlighting as several actors and actresses including Sylvester Stallone, Kip Pardue and Burt Reynolds displayed great moments of emotions and passion within a Champ Car season. However, a shortfall within the movie was the poor depliction of an actual competition in a Champ car race. This problem was likely because the script didn't completely shake the Formula One racing template orginally planned for Driven.
In summing up, This isn't the best film when considering accuracy to the real Champ car series. However, Driven has great qualities for a smart choice for family viewing.
Gave it 1 start because 0 wasn't available
This movie would only be watchable by people who know NOTHING (and I mean nothing - like less then my wife - who I might add thinks that Formula 1 is abrand of baby formula). It is filled with absolutely laughable impossibilities (dozens . . . maybe hundreds) like being able to jump into an IndyCar, turn the key (connected to the non-existent built-in starter), and take off down city streets at 200+. A complete and side-splitting comedy for any race fan who was unlucky enough to buy (or rent) this piece of rediculous junk thinking they were about to watch a "Real Racing Movie". It get's my vote for the "Top 10 Worst" movies list.
