Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

Holstra Boring, long, and too preachy.

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Jeremy Connors First moto doc that had me considering just how dangerous these machines, and what we do with them, really can be. A real tear-jerker. And what impressed me the most was the editing -- complimented by shots of crashes through P.O.V.'s and helicopter footage, (not too mention the vintage reels) -- you can't help but *feel* what you're experiencing as a viewer. Quite an achievement as documentary format goes, if you ask me. The story is beyond compelling, albeit slow at times. Proverbial celebrity-with-euro-accent- narration was in no way distracting or over the top. Liam fit right in with rest of the micks just fine. :)

valleyjohn Wow. What a film Drive is. I had heard of the Dunlop name many years ago but not being a road racing fan i never knew their story other than hearing Joey's name when i was a kid. This remarkable documentary tells the story of Brothers Joey and Robert , intermingled with footage of Robert's two sons and how road racing is their life . I can't imagine what makes these men play with their lives , road racing on these extremely dangerous machines but this film gives some sort of insight in to how dedicated these men were. Narrated by Liam Neeson with moving interviews from family and friends and some amazing race footage , this is one of the best films i have seen in a very long time.10 out of 10

raputznik With the slick, bombastic intro slowly building towards an orgiastic climax, I expected this movie to be moving and transfixing along the lines of "Senna"—but ultimately, it's a lot of sound and fury signifying nothing. As the expertly-edited intro credits fade to the narrative about a two-generation Irish driving dynasty, there is little here to keep the interest of a viewer who isn't already familiar with—or better yet, a superfan of—these Irish road warriors. Ear-splitting audio effects sharply intercut the standard talking-heads interviews, and I began to question whether Liam Neeson's sturdy- but-sonambulistic voice-over work wasn't hampering the narrative, as I struggled to understand why I should care about this particular family over any other Irish motorcycling daredevils.The odd crash excites, but the crash footage is oddly bloodless and, as much as the filmmakers try to demonstrate what the thrilling reality of driving a back at such a breakneck speed is like, there's isn't much evidence of what happens to the human body during one of these high-speed disasters. Much like the toothless "Formula 1", this is a great documentary, if you already follow the subject, and get aroused simply by the noise and thunder of engines and exciting footage. Unlike its spiritual cousin (and, I suspect, inspiration for all moto-docs since) "Senna", this film lacks the heart and effective explication of the sport to casual viewers that creates a memorable, moving documentary. Rent "Senna", unless you're an Irish Moto fan.

emailpablosanchez I'm by no means a fan of bikes or road racing, but seeing the high reviews for this movie got me intrigued. I'm very glad I watched this doco, in one word, inspirational.It's been a while since a piece of film has moved me, and it's just the basics of human emotion and the revelation of the amazing spirit of the people in this film that speak a real, undeniable truth.Great story, great telling, amazing footage and wow, what an amazing family. They obviously live for this, and it shows through with raw emotion, honesty and moments that are genuine and heartfelt.The footage is spectacular, with some passage just having me shaking my head in disbelief. It's amazing what some people can push themselves to do.Do yourself a favour and watch this flick.
