DriverX

I saw the preview of this, and I am a Kickstarter backer. DriverX is very well acted, and, given the tiny budget, quite accomplished for shooting, editing, production design, music, etc. A little went a long way, and it's worth viewing to see what almost anyone can do with passion, a few bucks, and er....DRIVE.

The plot/script was mundane: a middle aged dude has trouble connecting with millennials after losing his record store business. He takes up ridesharing to make ends meet. The individual scenes of his rides were good and funny, but I missed the overarching story.

Why are so many producers/writers making movies today that do not have any real climax/ending to them? I enjoyed this movie until it was over and I realized there would be no conclusions forthcoming. And why did all the pickups have to be drunk or high on drugs? This movie could have been so much more.

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.

Unexpectedly worthwhile film detailing the strengths and strains in a modern-day marriage in a major American city. Patrick Fabian, a favorite from "Better Call Saul" plays Leonard, whose joy in life and his work was the record store he owned for so many years that he feels like he doesn't know how to do anything else. He decides to take a job driving for a new service, and in the course of that, learns more about his city and its inhabitants than maybe he really cares to know. However, he gets into a groove with the job and, though his wife seems to want more, he IS making progress...and friends! Both the lead roles here are extremely nuanced and amazing to watch this husband and wife navigate a difficult time. Funny, touching, an exploration of modern-day life and its joys and obstacles.
