Driven

I feel like those who didn't like this movie were not fans of jason Sudakis in the first place and pre-judged despite the fact he did a great job. Others didn't understand certain parts(ie. the suitcase) because they got bored or missed certain parts of the movie.

All in all great acting all around, the story kept me interested, and the ending satisfied me

7.1

We saw this movie at it's premiere in Venice. Although a great story and depiction of the final demise of John Delorean, the film only barely touched on Delorean's meteoric rise through GM and barely touched on those accomplishments. Jason Sudeikis steals every scene he is in as Jim Hoffman, but Lee Pace's portrayal of John Delorean is spot-on of the methodical genius. Presented as a "based on true events" biopic, I feel a lot of dramatic licenses were taken in bringing the final story to film.

I'm usually the first to jump on SNL cast members making movies because they drag half of the cast with them, then you get the long skit version effect - but this is not that movie. Sudeikis is great as the annoying weirdo and has good chemistry with all the players around him. The story is good as an over view of Deloreans struggle so just enjoy the ride and don't look to deep into it.

Yes the movie is like the DMC, it starts on a high note, losses track in between and the end it simply torturing. Though based on true events the movie is made too boring, it can put you to sleep. Jason Sudeikis guess forgot that it was not a funny movie and his main role was not carried out so nicely. I saw only for the love of the car and that too due to Back to the Future.

Pace is fantastic as DeLorean and Sudeikis proves (again) that he can do much more than goofy comedies. Many here expected this film to focus on the famous engineer, but this is not a biopic. This is about the unlikely but fascinating events that led to the end of his career. We still get a good look at his personality, even if the focus is slightly more on Jim Hoffman whose story is also fascinating. Well worth a watch.
