Overview

Driver is a skilled Hollywood stuntman who moonlights as a getaway driver for criminals. Though he projects an icy exterior, lately he’s been warming up to a pretty neighbor named Irene and her young son, Benicio. When Irene’s husband gets out of jail, he enlists Driver’s help in a million-dollar heist. The job goes horribly wrong, and Driver must risk his life to protect Irene and Benicio from the vengeful masterminds behind the robbery.

Viewing Notes

After Barbie I really wanted to see the other side of Ryan Gosling. Crazy this movie is 12 years old. Like a totally different time. Also, another Oscar Isaac appearance I totally forgot about (the last was in Bourne Legacy). So wild to see him drop into this movie and exit nearly as fast (just like Bourne Legacy!). Gosling is so good in this. The undercurrent of sadness is probably why I haven’t rewatched this.
