His real skill was in finding a parking spot in the stadium carpark.
Yeah, it would have been more realistic if he had just ditched it in the middle of the driving path. And I guess those 2 crooks were screwed, because the cops were close behind and he didn't park far from the entrance.
😂
@@mmclaurin8035 aren't there different exits??
The game was over. People are leaving the stadium, it would've of been easy to find a spot.
I said the same thing …three unrealistic parts in this movie first one was getting that parking spot right in the front but remember a lot of people leave the game before it ends. That’s the best time to get the spot in the front anyway thinking of it that way.
Any other movie has the thieves freaking out and shouting at the driver what to do. It's actually nice to finally see a couple guys that know when to keep their mouths shut and just let the driver drive
Drive (2011)
Agreed. Plus, the silence deepens the tension of the scene. It's a masterpiece of cat-and-mouse
worst get away driver ever 1 star would not recommend " he left us in a parking garage surrounded by law enforcement while we were dressed like fn cat burglars.. He got himself a disguise and got away.. wheres our hat mother f'r!!!"
@@patrickosmium733 - 08:33 They also were taking off their jackets and had already stashed away their masks. They would have blended in with the crowd and walked right out like he did. They were both "white" guys in a sea of "white" guys, so good look to the police pointing them out when they have no clue what they look like.
@@patrickosmium733"We're grateful you chose us as your law avoiding service. Thank you for sharing your feedback, we're looking forward to meet your expectations next time you rob something. When it comes to the best getaway experiences, our customers always come (get out) first!" 😂
What I find most interesting about this scene is that it's an elaborate, drawn-out car chase, but the camera never once leaves the car the entire time the protagonist is driving. We're right there with him
More like, we are literally him.
The title of the film is "Drive" and it is about the driver...so who or what would you like the camera to focus on in the opening 10 of the film??? Dinnae quit your day job...
@@datgrrl5698 This is a pretty great troll comment, it didn't work on me but I respect it. You must be great at pissing off 14 year-olds who don't know better 😂
awesome observation
This scene has a silent apprehensiveness that is just perfect
no replies, really?? I think its the silence of the people is what makes this scene.
I like how he just continuously drives right toward the cops the whole time.
"nobody will be looking at you."
One of my favourite openings to any film.
You may stay.
The roaring acceleration is the best transition from silence of hiding to action of pursue.
The best Michael Mann movie not made by Michael Mann
Perfect what you said !
It's got the Micheal Mann hallmarks, LA at night, mesmerising music and minimal dialogue. Just pure class!
@@emilyf13ify It also owes a shit ton to The Driver, by Walter Hill
Real talk

Chromatics - Tick Of The Clock
Totally agree !
Great part I’ve always loved about this is how he gets in the cops way at the end. He makes sure he’s seen leaving the stadium under his guise and gives the robbers more of a margin to get away from the impala. As far as believable effective criminals go, this guy takes the cake. Meticulous and opportunistic.
A remarkable film in so many ways. When Gosling signed on for the leading role, the producers gave him the right to choose the director, and he chose Danish filmmaker Nicolas Winding Refn. The screenplay came from Iranian-born British writer Hossein Amini. Gosling and Refn, along with other principal cast, all moved into the same house together during the shoot. The film earned over $81 million against a small (by Hollywood standards) production budget of $15 million.
Holy shixt.
The way he opens the door is so nice
This is one of my all-time favorite movies. What an incredibly visceral and yet strangely dream-like thriller.
One of the coolest opening scene
The ambience and sound design is so perfect it just feels like that we are actually sitting right beside gosling on passenger seat
Yeah no... the sound design is pretty bad, at least when it comes to the car with its continuous gear changes that make no sense.
@@superking-nicolaslucau7252 and your opinion counts because? No
5:37, when he guns it he's still moving with the pace of traffic lol
I'd seen the film before, but only on re-watching this scene did i realize he was listening to the ball game on the radio in order to time his arrival at the stadium parking lot.
Bryan cranston is a hidden gem in this
No he isn't, he's good but there's nothing noteworthy of him here.
@@flybeep1661you could even say he’s… plain Jane.
Fk man you nailed it. He's BEAUTIFUL. incremental deliverary
Literally me.
I am literally Ryan Gosling.
He opened the door to let the robbers in at 3:27 and stops the car in the parking at 8:27 ... perfect 5 minute time frame , and great attention to details here...
I always interpreted it as he will wait in the car while they "do the deed" for exactly 5 mintues without bailing on them. That's why he set his watch the moment they cut the chain.
The fact I drive a Chevy Impala makes me smile
He drove the car because it was common
I love the Impala though are the engine sounds Accurate? I always thought he had a souped up Impala for the Heist
@@ameyajoshi742 He did, Cranston's character said he dropped in '300 hp on the inside, she is gonna fly'. Didn't say what exactly he put in but suffice to say I don't think the 2009 Impala has 300 hp stock.
@@damendred1 its the SS model, used to have a v8
I remember seeing this film for the first time. I thought it might just be a contender to knock off HEAT as my all time favourite film. It didn't, but man did i enjoy it. Fantastic film. Love the soundtrack and score, too.
He guns it @5:42 with corresponding engine sounds, but the cars in front remain the same distance away
Those cars are over 100 mph
Yeah that annoyed me as well
I wonder if he could've bluffed by just normally continuing cruising. Sudden acceleration just drew the choppers attention.
@@tamasser listen to the walkie talkie. he doesn't accelerate until after he hears the helicopter confirm a sighting
Great movie and one of the best opening scenes.
One of the greatest openings in film, phenomenal cast, storyline, and soundtrack, a film at first you think is like all the others in its genre, but as you reach its end, you truly realize how great it is 👏
one of the best scenes in cinema history!
I've always considered Ryan Gosling to be on the cooler end of actors, based on their roles that they chose. I used to have this on my KZhead playlist. Thank you, sir.
...until he took on the role of Ken in Barbie
@@TheSedition666That made him even cooler
@@whysoserious286 what are you smoking? The film is an insult to film making.
Try Nice Guy
@@LucasTOrz oh right the movie with Russell Crowe. That was some fine entertainment. I enjoyed the sh-t out of that. I bet that film was fun to make for those guys.
Damn, the pigs knew it was a silver Impala in under 10 seconds with zero eyes on the scene - somebody sold Driver out!
There are always eyes on the scene. People you cant see walking, living, jogging, homeless dudes around. In a city you are never really alone. Plus cctv cameras literally everywhere and local security guards having night shift walking around etc etc.
If homeboy didn't take so long getting out
Camera feeds are live brother.
There's a hundred thousand streets in the city. You don't need to know the route. Now, you give me a time and a place. I give you a five-minute window, anything happens in that five minutes and I'm yours. No matter what. Anything happens a minute in either side of that, you are on your own. Do you understand?
Yes, I understand. Can you take me to Disneyland?
Disneyland lmao
Masterpiece in every way !
Wish the whole film was like this
Thanks for not ruining this by putting a watermark on it
All these "literally me" ahh comments 😂 but are you even a scorpio like him and me?...cuz i am scorpio like ryan gosling...gives that jacket he wears in the movie a whole different meaning.
You might be a Scorpio, but do you also have the same exact birthday as him? Because I do.
Love this movie
This is literally my Grandma
With the watch and the police scanner and the Clippers hat? Nice. Please tell me she has the satin scorpion jacket too.
No but when naked she actually looks like a real human Bean
I’ve showed this. Movie to a few people , I think it’s a masterpiece ! Only people who didn’t like it were the Fast & Furious meatheads ! It just not that kind of movie & I am so grateful !
Nicolas Winding Refn is an amazing director. Danish.
This is crazy that he got away without playing Empty Bed.
'Easy Rider' 1969.......'Drive' 2011.....Both films are joined at the Hip...
Always wondered whats in that duffel bag at the very beggining
I give you five star ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great movie 🍿 I love to see it again
he forgot his really expensive watch
Even ken stole cars
great opening scene except for the birdge where he floors it and the two cars ahead of him either just stay the same speed or also think the helicopter is chasing them and book it at the same time lol, since it's LA probably the latter
Amazing movie 😍
Literally me
Great soundtrack
name?
The drive soundtrack
Perfect
This film was tragically underrated.
In what way? 93% on Rotten Tomatoes. Made over $81 million against a production budget of $15 million. At Cannes Film Festival it won Best Director, one of the highest honors a director can reach. Several critics listed Drive as one of the best films of 2011, including the National Board of Review.
I always consider Ryan Gosling in the same league as Clint Eastward, Jason Strathon and Charles Bronson, no talky bullshit just gets on with it. Hugh Jackman's performance as The Wolverine was same too.
He is not in that league at all. Screams like a woman.
he has debt way beyond the mentioned guys, except for Clint.
Clint Eastward? Jason Strathon? Don't you mean Charles Bunson and Hugh Jerkman?
He’s our generations Steve McQueen !
I blame this movie soundtrack for reviving 80s music style resulting in stuff like "Blinding Lights"
It kind of is. Thisovie is what started the whole synthwave boom, although back then I think people called it vaporwave
@@DruguzuYou're close, vaporwave is brighter and 'warmer', where as this one has a darker tone and more mystic. Such works such as from kavinsky is 'outrun' based on the 80s outrun game
Soundtrack in this film is mega
Yup !
The. Perfect movie! How gorgeous in every way!
Yes !
5:42 When you take the highway in GTA 5.
Slick...
Nice
this video is gonna get so many views
either side of 5 minutes? 4 or 6 minutes? thats wee todd ed
Never quite got that. Didn't make sense to me
When Ryan Gosling did good movies...
The problem is cameras. All the cops have to do is trace the videos backwards.
He really is literally me
He asked for 5 min window and drove for 4:30 minutes from the moment second thief gets in the car….that is great movie making
Lol cmon it’s a fkn movie guy…. The stupid shit is him timing the window around the Clippers game in the fourth quarter, where most your time outs and fouls are made… that would make that five minutes ending of that game. If you know basketball can turn into 13 minutes with commercials timeout fouls foul shot that’s just totally pretty much you could try that 200 times I’m just saying pulling in the lot I meant to say in finding a spot in the front, just do the same route. He took and stop under the bridge for the same amount of time I’m just saying you’re not gonna get it when the games going for 321 when he loudens the music in the car… you hear the status of the game?.. you got a better chance of getting your leg bit off by a shark sitting on your couch watching this fucking movie how’s that for odds…
Wasn't the 5 minute window the time he was to wait for the guys to come out? He starts his timer the second before the alarm goes off.
Hu.szuper.
Driving is Kenough
One of my all time favourite movies.....this is what GONE IN 60 SECONDS should have been
What I mean is dark,gritty,exciting and intense
So he leaves the thieves in the car with the stolen goods and police at the entrance. Hardly getting them to safety is it?
five minutes was up ma bro
They had been wearing masks. So who were the cops to look for?
❤
he just abandoned a 300 HP impala
Thats kuiu. -Cartman
Did he leave the watch in the car? 😅
There is another movie of the same name I'd recommend watching it the film came out in 97
i drive
Sounds like a 1987-1993 5.0L.
good thing it didn't go overtime
Since the cops are everywhere on the scene they'll find the car so : - What about the 2 goddamn thieves in the back of the car? - What about his watch that can easily link to him? No sense
Le samoraii
Whats with the frame rate, or is this on my end?
Most major films use 30 frames per second
24 FPS, and that's usually cinematic movie standard. TV shows are often 25/30 FPS broadcast standard.
Someone deleted the original upload. It had millions of views.
“Literally me” 🤡🤣🤣
Nice try. GM passenger cars rank about #22 in popularity in California. Back when the CEO did not make more than 50x the janitor, GM was ranked #1 in California.
Nobody would hire a guy who only works 5 minutes and dumps you at a ball game.
Did you know it's a movie?
Did the other two get away?
He's cool as hell for sure but why would anyone hire a guy that straight up works for 5 minutes only then screws you over?? 😂😂
Michael Mann vibes and really good but just not as good as it presents... for example look at the scene on the bridge with the helicopter, he hits the gas but ?so does everyone else? because it's the same two cars equally far ahead of him across the whole bridge... Michael Mann would never let something that big go if you look at a film like Heat for example
Mr White sorts his car out and offers him some of the younger siblings of methaphetamine 😂
Video is lagging in all possible resolutions?..
like if your here detectiving roaring kitty
And then this guy does the Barbie film....=/
They Actors have no choice but to remove there hand 📲
In LA is legal to helicopter fly above cars and lighten them up like on this bridge? Fuck me.
A police helicopter looking for suspects, yes. Not just in LA, anywhere. At least here in the states.
@@trent617tw Its bad, and if comes out that suspect is innocent?
@SuperSedans Then they'd be innocent I guess. Not sure I understand. They're just an eye in the sky helping units on the ground. They're actually pretty useful. If you're referring to the search lights they use they don't cause accidents on the ground or anything.
So John Connor lines and they told Shakeel that he is son .now they all greedy for RC cars 10 at least one for end of world one Shakeel and the rest
In Hollywood, cars, apparently, have infinite gears to shift through. Every time.
Congrats on being early and finding this comment 🥇
This movie was so hyped up at the time. But when that patrol unit put out on the radio that he saw the suspect vehicle possibly "stopped at a stoplight," I started doubting. What does that even mean? Any particular street where that "stoplight" might be located? Wouldn't your fellow officers like to know where you see the suspect vehicle? Then apparently LAPD only has one air unit and it has to go from call to call without consideration as to what they are leaving. What about when he leaves that downtown "stoplight," apparently the patrol unit doesn't know how to put out a direction of travel, and seconds later the driver pulls into what looks like a parking lot near the Staples Center where a space is magically waiting for him. Then he gets out and walks away--with other patrol units arriving within seconds--despite, according the police scanner, none of them knowing the direction the driver was heading, or what his destination happened to be? How about the original robbery? Who called the cops? Did the robbers leave the victims with their phones? And there was a police response with seconds of the robbers jumping into the car. Hey, someone has to call the cops, the operator had to get the information, then it has to be put out on the radio so that patrol units can response--takes more that a few seconds. How did the police get a decent description of the car the was parked in the dark? If the victims didn't call the police, who was watching outside that somehow knew that car was connected to a robbery they couldn't see? Anyway, the writer should have spent one shift doing a ride-a-long and asked a few questions. All of this nonsense could have been corrected to make it more realistic without spending more money.
ok
@@nielsbertiller6930 I didn't actually expect anyone to read my comment. Just posted it for my own satisfaction. That movie had so many flaws but this is an old thread. But then you come along with "ok." That comment does have meaning. You're posing to the audience of one. Being irreverent and unaffected in the world you live in right now. At least you didn't say "It was only a movie." Or some type of comment indicating "No one wants to read a book!" That one is more of an indictment of our current education system and the Twitter generation of limited attention span. Anyway, thanks.
I think the whole sequence is perspective of the driver and how he works. They might have planned already that the stadium is their destination to escape from police. The car is parked in the dark true but the other robber cost them time so the witnesses we didnt see on screen was watching there and able to see identify the car after it left off. Even things are planned perfectly, it will not always work and had to improvise. If they went off on time, the witnesses and the police might not know what the getaway car is and everything will go smoothly. So during the chase, we saw the driver stayed cool and he showed off his skills. As the movie went on and tensions rising, we get to see the real character of the driver. The spotlight scene, depends on geography on screen was near the bridge, it just happened that police was there. We dont know the fate of the robbers because they almost screwed it but at least the driver is the man of his word.
@@alwayslateandoutdatedperso6972 I thought this famous opening was well acted, and yes, the way this 1st Act was shot was well done and kept the tension high--I just was disappointed at how badly written some of it happened to be. Just a little research would have fixed all of it. They had a ton of time to pull off the robbery. Remember his rule the robbers had only so much time--like 2 minutes to return to the get-away car--which they did make. So these unseen witnesses not only were able to see the robbery going down, connect the car to the robbers, call 911--which is routed to a CHP Operator in Central California when it comes to LAPD. That CHP Operator was able to type up the robbery call with description of the get-away car and route it to the nearest LAPD Radio Transmission Operations Center, which then assigned the call to several patrol units from a particular LAPD Station, the lead unit then apparently requested an LAPD air unit--all of this took place within just over 120 seconds--well....no. That driver and the robbers would have been long gone. Then I have to tell you, LAPD has more than one air unit. They don't have to bug out because another violent crime happened to pop up. And...that LAPD air unit was controlling the pursuit and search. And they bugged out because they received another call? So that's the way it works? No. The knowledge that the driver knew the LAPD air unit would leave was part of his skill set--it was just a shame the writer didn't at least check to see if that's how it's actually done. They could have achieved the same results by having the driver know for example that the LAPD air unit might expand the search in a different pattern, allowing the driver to escape. Or have the LAPD air unit leave because the pursuit and search itself had been called off. So the driver then leaves, only to run into that patrol unit, which has an officer in it that knows how to put out a location. See? You still have the same tension. Then again, that patrol unit officer putting out that he saw the suspect vehicle at a stop light. Anyone putting out that nonsense would have been written up. Any particular stop light officer? Perhaps some street names so that other patrol units know where you are and where the suspect vehicle happens to be? And then the same patrol unit apparently didn't bother to put out any radio traffic advising that the suspect vehicle had just turned left and headed north, then west. How do we know he headed north, then west? Because the driver managed to go from lower Downtown LA to the Staples Center, find a magically open parking spot on the 1st Level after being lucky enough to not have to go through any entrance gate with the arm down, or get a ticket, park, then walk off looking cool because he must have parked in one of the other parking lots nearby and magically avoided all the area's cameras that would have later been used to track him as he walked from the Staples Center parking back to his car. The cops were arriving just as he was walking out so I would be surprised if those two robbers didn't get identified as well from all the cameras? Why not drive them to a remote location? Then the driver does this cool exit once he pulls into the magically created parking space on the first level of one of a parking location that apparently had fans coming back to their cars from the basketball game. Cameras everywhere! The cops can track him right to his 2nd car, his pickup, or a bus. I know, it was only a movie. But this could have been one of the all-time greats. I wish they had kept the driver a true professional but they gave him all sorts of mental issues. And why would Albert Brooks, who played the big baddie, place himself in such a vulnerable position that he allowed himself to get killed at the end? He just threatened to kill the driver's girl, and stalk him forever, but saw no problem going to the money location by himself with the driver armed only with a knife. What could go wrong? Why did the driver leave the money--did he think he was in "The Thief?" An old James Caan movie from the 1980's where the master criminal wanted the big crime boss to know that he didn't give a damn. Somethings were more important that mere money? He would burn it all down. Why didn't he seek medical treatment? Okay, he wanted the cool, mysterious, somewhat ambiguous send-off--maybe for Drive Part II? Anyway, have a good rest of your week. Thank you for the comment.
Damn! Eviscerated! Can’t argue with that :)
Uhm... What happened to the robbers?
He was not their sitter, all he was required to do was get them away from the crime scene. If they couldn't melt away from an arena that was just emptying out after a game, they need to switch careers.
Nfs most wanted 2012 beta LOL
The audio on this is horrible
Trace cameras, are you kidding me think their gonna go through all that when they got away from a robbery nobody was dead I’m not gonna go to cameras, you guys are gonna see him get out he puts a hat on you don’t got a good shot of his face they’re done he’s gone he did his job. He gave him a five minute window after five minutes he’s gone but just think I had a 1998 5.0 Mustang GT earlier than 2011 when this movie came out that had 344 hp in it so 300 horse in 2011 it’s not a lot …cop cars had more horsepower than that and I looked at the weight of both cars the impala is only 400 pounds lighter so that cop could’ve caught him easily at that light when he hit that U-turn watch movie though… that’s unrealistic right there to me in 2011 cop cars in away we’re probably crown VICS or Chevy caprice is look at the horsepower in a 2011 police Los Angeles cop car it’s got like 340 horse he only had 300 horse in his butt and then I said, let me look at the weight … the impala was lighter but then again he got two guys in the back it was lighter by 400 pounds but the two guys in the back make up for 400pounds, so they were both the same weight.. I think once they lost robbery suspects I think the LA police have more going on than to go look at cameras to find the guy that just robbed some tools or shots fire. You don’t know if anybody was dead. They never mention that they shot open the lock that’s right here the shot you had a shot outside the door they’re not even inside yet when you hear the shot, they shot the lock off.
@@colespradlin5440 never thought of that if u go through the whole scene again, the only time he really “ drops the 300 horse” is 2 times it matches up that’s it It’s #1 when he hears air support has eyes on the “ so called Chevy impala that is so plain Jane and the most popular car in the state of CA,” lol that’s where the sound matches #2 Is at the stop light with the Cops across the street at the other red light going opposite of him and he hears “ possible suspect at so and so light ( I don’t know verbatim)… but when the light turns green, the sound matches …. That’s the only 2 times I hear it match up with the gears hr should be in at those RPM’s… idk just my opinion of shitty audio editing, that’s all ..
Haha true
Did you know it's a movie? And all the technicalities are not the point? Or did you expect to watch a documentary about cars, LAPS and robberies?
@@FlymanMS true .. I mean if we’re gonna pick out editing mistakes, we’ll be here for a year
@@FlymanMS I said the same thing it’s a fucking movie
you ruined it joe blo bullshit end no song jumpy footage get the updated iMovie
I'm sorry i did my best to like this film and I like Gosling but he is simply not believable as a street tough, car guy or whatever the F he is supposed to be in this film. He looks like a suburban kid from Canada who never got into a hockey fight because his mother is his agent. I think the acting was adequate but compare this to any other "driver" film (Baby Driver, Transporter, Mad Max even) and this film is like an grad student's submission for their degree. And Christina Hendricks was utterly wasted here. I mean she's hot but... why? The film didn't suck but it was in no way exceptional.
It's an art house film so that probably explains a lot, the music and cinematography in this movie was exceptional.
The absolute best scene in an otherwise meh movie.
literally not this guy
lol
Terrible take
You were probably that guy texting non stop in the theatre.
