Hey, may I ask you for your thoughts on "Drive"? Be they good or bad (or indifferent/cantrememberent), I can take it.

I really liked it, though it's seriously fucked up. It's an excellent pastiche of late 70s/early 80s crime films, beautifully shot with a modern sensibility underneath. Definitely worth watching, in my mind.
