aeb001-516-688379 The only good thing about this film was seeing so many locations that are within a few minutes drive of my home. The beaches to that country pub are all part of the Gold Coast experience. The really really bad film is thankfully NOT what we are known for, so please visit the Gold Coast.

Dessler1 I have been a member of IMDb for 10 years and never written a review on here before but I needed to say something about this pile of crap. Drive Hard was available on Sky Movies Demand and I saw Cusack and Jane attached to it so I thought that sounds cool and wondered why I had never heard of it. I love Cusack since I was a kid back in the 80s and Thomas Jane was awesome in The Punisher so I had a real shock when watching the first 5 mins (yes 5 mins) and could see why I had never heard of it. This film (if you can call it a film) was one of the worst movies (along with 'Dude Where's My Car' and 'Operation Endgame') that I've ever seen. I couldn't even finish it after watching 30 minutes, as I felt my brain was turning into mush. Seriously Cusack what were you thinking??The acting was very bad, the script was not well written, the camera work was shoddy (some of the actors faces especially Jane looked so odd like they had skin conditions) and the comedy wasn't funny at all.I saw the trailer straight after switching off to see how they portrayed it and it is deceiving as they put all the action in but hardly anyone speaking because the other actors could not act at all. I watch all types of films from the classics, interesting and intelligent to the daft, silly and ridiculous and enjoy them all. I like to give movies a chance, but this was too much. If I could have given a zero I would have, but it is a 1 out of 10 for me.

iain-96 Big fan of John Cusack so his participation in this movie makes me kind of sad. John quality over quantity should be your motto.Not sure if it Thomas Jane that annoys me or his character. Either way he really grates on me every time I see him on screen.This movie has to be the worst I have seen in a long time. So many plot and credibility holes. It looks like it was filmed very quickly with little or no thought to script development.Always good to see an Australian based movie and it would have put some food on the table for local actors and techs, which is the only beneficial outcome of this effort.Avoid if you can, unless you are a fan of movies that are so bad that the are funny.

LeonLouisRicci Everything from the Ridiculously Inaccurate Title is Lame. If You are Going to Title Your Movie "Drive Hard" it Might be Nice to have some Hard Driving in the Thing. Although the Pairing of Thomas Jane and John Cusack Seems Like it Could Work as Both have a Behind the Smile Quirkiness and Can Give Characters a Deeper than Surface Appeal, it was Not to Be.The Dialog that is Improvised at Times Comes Off as Dialog that was Improvised at Times. A False Spontaneity that is Irritating and Embarrassing. The Script Gives them Little Wit and Both Try in Vain to Extract Blood from this Script of Stone. It is a Worthless Movie Filled with the Worse Car Chases Imaginable and the Gun Violence is so Lackluster as to be Criminal.The Story is OK but the Execution Across the Board is Lifeless, Artless, and Unforgivable. This is Movie Making at its Most Mundane and All Involved Should be Ashamed. Nothing Here is Entertaining and Although it Tries Hard to be an Action Buddy Comedy it Manages Nothing Short of a Forgettable Film that Most Likely will be Excluded from Everyones Resume.
