I admire how Refn really seemed to take a note from the Michael Mann soundtrack and chose songs that fit the movie not only musically, but lyrically as well. I'm thinking of this song and "A Real Hero" in particular, but all the songs and the score fit like a glove.
I know that the word epic is over used on youtube...but this film defines the word. The best film for decades. It feels so real and believable compared to most other films. We will all look back in years to come and realise that this is one of the greatest films ever. In a way though, this films kinda reminds me of GTA Vice city.
@GregSmithTV i really loved the intro.. in terms of vibes of southern california this was a true depection of it. L.A at night is like this, really dark and gloomy but surrounded by this glitz, glamour and gloss. lots of crime within a extremely wealthy city with wealthy involved in corruption. The way the last scene was shot when hes under the bridge...(brings back memories ha). For me it had a TERMINATOR vibe to it.
@GregSmithTV the music fits so perfectly while you get a honest view of LA at night while driving.. BRAVO!!!!!!!!! A Lot of FUNK,New Wave,electro funk,oldies,minimal are LA delights in music.
LOL! if you can't make the difference between the unreal stunts in Fast and the Furious and the real one in DRIVE than ...I dont even know why you comment on this sh*t! LOL! :P
of course most of the public ignored this film. drive is one of the better movies of 2011 because it was not dumbed down like those stupid fast and furious flicks and the damn trailer is a spoiler.

I think I enjoyed this movie almost as much as I enjoyed Pulp Fiction. Maybe even more.

Yet another example of the Academy Of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences snubbing what was one of the best, if not the best film of the year.

@SMS2RR You are SO correct. I have lived in L.A. my whole life, and this intro makes my heart ache for it's 80's pop culture again. Sigh.
