Lady Driver

The film is a cliche from start to end, adapted for the modern woman, perhaps. You know the one: she can't lose to a man, she loves herself a macho arrogant man, but only until he utters anything dismissive, she expects everything to be given to her, she does perfectly at anything she tries without effort and in the end she is victorious against the arrogant man doing something he has been training for his whole life.

Now, Grace Van Dien is cute and she has potential to become better, but not by acting in the films she did until now and especially not this one. It was painful to see Sean Patrick Flanery relegated to the role of the old uncle in this crappy film, too.

Bottom line: there is nothing redeeming in this movie. It's predictable from start to end, it has a lazy implausible plot, inconsistent characters, bad acting, boring "sport" scenes and that horrid moral that teaches young people they deserve to be anything they wim being without doing anything for it.

"Lady Driver" (PG, 104 min) is typical silly Netflix film with no substance, unbelievable story, predictable script and bland ending. Actually, it is tiresomely formulaic and fractionally patronizing movie about dirt-mud racing and female empowerment. As movie endeavor, it was quite disappointing. I didn't turned this off after 20 minutes - as I'm usually doing with similar movies - just because of cute Grace Van Dien in leading role.

Rating: 5-/4+

Predictable story line but light hearted entertainment Acting not the best but they mean well and the story could have had a bit more to it

I understand that some people love the main girl character and want to be entertained and I agree that female empowerment is a nice change.

However this film is just plain teenage entitlement. How is this sending a good message for kids and their parents? Lie and steal your way when ever adult tells you no, and get off without any punishment, what a great plot for a story.

Could have gone so many ways, I am stunned as to who approves the script when it's this bad. It's obviously bad. Even for a wrap it up in a bow Hallmark movie.

I think that some viewers gave this movie an unfair rating. It was good and entertaining and yes you probably knew what the outcome would be. Ellie and her mother finally understood each other towards the end and worked out their differences. I thought the actors in this movie were pretty good. If you like movies like this one, i recommend watching it.
