Driven

About This Movie

Driven (2019) directed by Nick Hamm delves into the murky waters of ambition and betrayal. The film's pacing is a bit uneven at times, but it captures the chaotic atmosphere of the late '70s automobile industry and the high stakes of undercover work. The performances, particularly Jason Sudeikis as Jim Hoffman, showcase a range of emotions from desperation to cunning, which makes the morally ambiguous nature of the characters feel genuine. It’s interesting how the film weaves historical events into the narrative, giving it a certain weight while also delivering a thriller vibe. The practical effects used for some car scenes add a touch of authenticity that’s hard to ignore, which is always a nice touch in crime dramas like this.
