COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Huh? submitted by emljas on May 18, 2015, 11:53am It started off ok, and it seemed like it could have had potential. But the movie just kept going downhill. My spouse and I couldn't figure out how the critics and some online users gave this such good reviews. There were gaping holes in the storyline. As the movie progressed I thought it changed into a B movie. The soundtrack was nice. The trailer hints at one story/genre and the movie winds up being something else entirely. 2/10.

went downhill fast submitted by carolynherrmann on August 26, 2015, 1:15pm It started of pretty good, but ended up being like a teen horror movie. The ending was a big disappointment - especially leaving it open to a sequel like they did. Not going to happen.....

Great submitted by ADunn on June 21, 2016, 8:37am Please understand that this movie is making fun of a lot of horror movie tropes and seems to be poking fun at Drive in particular. It's actually really funny, especially when you look at the main character like Ryan Gosling's driver.

Starts well but devolves submitted by mandevil on April 9, 2017, 10:05am Really enjoyed the first half but it devolved into silly and mindless violence. Sort of a bipolar movie. Maybe the writer quit halfway through?
