@fradddd yea you're entitled to your opinion; movies would be no fun if it were all objective! but some opinions are more informed than others, or more perceptive, or based in more experience/variety. not saying your opinion isn't, but that's what i would say to anybody who brings up the opinion topic
most critics liked Drive, a good portion of the general audience liked it as well, so implying that ritopls suggested Drive because he has bad taste is probably erroneous
@Xreniya: I've seen tons of movies, tons, and the only ones I've disliked are Drive, and Gattaca. Because they are just not entertaining at all. So lifeless.
@fradddd: not really there's always something going on, even if it seems like nothing in. your eye is always looking for different things to settle on, and this movie it finds them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wsI8UES59TM
the pace is slower than usual, maybe too slow for a lot of people, but that doesnt make it bad, i and many others found it perfectly fine the story is good too. nothing artsy fartsy about a good story
@fradddd: how on earth is its artsy fartsy? just because it's a little bit different, visually and atmospherically, than your standard hollywood movie doesnt make it "artsy fartsy"
Someone obviously needs to get a change in character. He sure has lots of issues if he is so heartbroken over a girl that he decides to be an Internet bully. Not watching any of these.

@fradddd good reasoning
@Xreniya: oh I forgot ritopls suggested it. That definitely makes it a crappy movie.

@Xreniya: it's obvious that it's trying to be. Trying too hard. It's mostly just staring over a monotonous soundtrack.

@Xreniya: it's just another movie that tries too hard to be artsy-fartsy.
