DriverX

A semi interesting look into what it's like to be a driver for a ride sharing company. Decent acting. Ok story.

This movie for me showed a lot of depth of caricatures and also a unrecognized struggle that many men face of ambiguity and general confusion\monatony of day to day life. It illustrated that no matter the social respect you earn for your job, every action adds to another's life experience.

The movie goes in quiet mood despite many interacting characters, as the main one do. While watching just waiting for a big change to happen , it will , not in the events, but in your mind. Moving from real ordinary life to new little active one ,is all what you need sometimes.

I'm sick and tired of the producers thinking they can trick their viewers with fake reviews! 16/16 reviews are all fake, pathetic! Producers need to learn that a review should be honest and from their viewers, and instead, not paying for fake reviews. That money should have went towards better writing.

This film was cast perfectly and all actors performances were excellent. Writer/director Henry Barrial directed this film very well, but his non-climatic pointless writing was where this film missed the mark. It was a good premise about the Uber/Lyft driving scene, but that's all it was, a bunch of passenger stories that went nowhere, and that were dragged out and paced way too slowly. I was expecting something relating to Leonards music background to happen, like catch a break somehow, or win some grand DriverX award for his efforts, or something to happen with his marriage, but nothing. The entire last act with the rock band and the girl was even more pointless. The writing was lazy and could have been much better. Henry Barrial should've stuck to directing and hired a better writer to re-write his story. As such, the ratings for this film are certainly not worth anything above a 7 (in considering a low budget B-grade film), which is what I would've given this film, but it loses a star for all the fake and dishonest reviews. Thus a 6/10 from me.

It seems that many that reviewed the film missed the point of the plot. It's a movie for married men, and men in committed monogamous relationships, and it's about "manning up" to that commitment, regardless of what life throws at you. It's not just for the men in the audience though, it's for the women as well as the message here is about recognizing that commitment from their partners and being supportive in return. There is some fine acting going on in this movie, excellent photography, directing, and I thought the soundtrack to be well thought out and chosen in consideration of the lead actors' role in the film. I also enjoyed visiting L.A. virtually, as I grew up in the city but haven't been back to visit since 1991. I plan on it in 2021 for my 50th high school class reunion. I may park n Ventura though and take the Uber the remaining distance as the thought of driving in L.A. traffic again isn't on my "bucket list" My hat's off to the independent drivers for hire of L.A...and to the cast and crew of this movie, thanks for the "lift"..
