Paul Orozco Let me start by saying, this is an absolutely wonderful film about a truly exceptional family. It's hardly perfect, but a beautiful tribute non-the-less. It starts off exciting, drags a little in the middle, and the last half hour becomes truly epic. In comparison to a film like Senna (which I truly love in almost every respect) it won't have the flair or fast paced manner, however, the subject matter here is so much more dangerous, and in some ways more exciting. There is tragedy within the film, but there is so much more. It feels a little too lengthy but I promise the payout is there in the end. If you're not moved by the end then you have no soul. Please enjoy and spread the word, its worthwhile.
peterreb This is a powerful and very moving film excellently and subtly narrated by Liam Neeson. The film is about 2 sets of brothers, Joey (Yer Maun) & Robert Dunlop and Robert's sons William & Michael. These men are probably the greatest motorcycle road racers of all time. Motorcycle road racing is without doubt one of the most dangerous sports in the world today where even the smallest error can be fatal. This movie captures some amazing and thrilling footage of the riders in action on Irish country roads and on the legendary Isle Of Man TT Course, there are also many fascinating interviews with the riders, their families, friends and their mechanics. This can at times be a hard movie to watch, it's hard not to shed a tear at some of the incidents shown. Liam Neson's narration is of the "less is more" variety, intelligently it lets the riders and the pictures do the talking. A must see, even for those who are not fans of motor sport.
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
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.
