Driven

This mini series episodes based on the novel by K Bromberg where very well adapted, definitely it marked everything I usually do to evaluate an adaptation from a book, the casting was fantastic, the screenplay was well written and the performance was what I wanted to see on the screen, Olivia Applegate brought Rylee to life and was simply what I envisioned for that character. Casey got Colton's character as well and their chemistry showed on screen as it did in the book, waiting for the following parts as I truly love the books.

Seriously! I am absolutely obsessed!!! Soo details and close to the book!!! And the cast is perfect! Chemistry between Colton and Rylee is amazing!!! I'll just go and watch it a million times

Colton Donovan is smoking hot and what makes this series. He meets Rylee backstage at a charity event for a program involving group foster homes. He kisses her and thus starts this endless pursuit of Colton's to have sex with Rylee.

Both Rylee and Colton have damage or baggage from their past that is preventing them from having happy loving relationships. They have filmed book one in its entirety and it will be interesting to see how the rest of the series pans out...can they heal each other?

Amazing chemistry between these two and worth watching just for that!

Just wanted to add that this series inspired me to read the books, which I am so glad I did. It is an amazing series. Thank you, Passionflix, Tosca Musk, Casey Deidrick, and K. Bromberg!

I can't wait to see how season two holds up with an actor change for Colton.

I really appreciate the seriousness and sensitivity given to portraying steamy sex scenes on film. I also recognize that part of that can only be done when actors, particularly actresses are willing to allow their bodies to be shown for their art/craft. Along those lines, thank you Olivia Grace Applegate for allowing such spectacular sex scenes to be filmed!

The original central character,Colton Donovan ( Casey Deidrick) is Very, very believable, flawed, pure sex- the character straight out of the Bromberg novel. His connection to Olivia Applegate/ Rylee, is perfect. They are lovers, adversaries, and the tension between these two pours off the screen.

If you want a tight story, the best of actors, the purest of emotions and sexual chemistry, you will love the first in the series, DRIVEN.

-------- Unfortunately, for whatever reason, the part of Colton from Season 2 on, is played by Michael Roarke. Sorry, but he simply does not have the acting chops that Deidrick has.

The "chemistry" with Olivia, the believability of emotions and pure sexual tension, does not exist. The audience now goes From gut wrenching realism to Flat and emotionless lines delivered, He simply is not Good enough to play Colton as created by Bromberg.

Sad: From a grade A movie to a lot, lot less for the rest of the Series. No interest in watching.

It's really hard to see your favorite books become a movie. So many discrepancies, will the actors live up to the hype, will they really bring it? I can honestly say I was worried after watching Fifty Shades. Loved the actors and they had some chemistry and managed to pull it off. It was ok.

So imagine how I felt seeing them take my #1 favorite series and turn it into a movie. I thought no way. They can't pull it off. I put my trust in Kristy Bromberg, the author, when she gave it her stamp of approval. I just KNEW she wouldn't let her beloved series just become another statistic.

I went to the premiere and was so excited and still a bit scared. All I can say is that THIS should be on the big screen in theaters. THIS movie, the actors Casey and Olivia, brought the heat and passion on like no other I've ever seen!!!

HOLY CANNOLIS!!!! It wasn't sexual, it was SENSUAL. Anyone can simulate sex (FSOG) but to have that connection between 2 characters and convey it on screen--SWEET JESUS they pulled it off. Casey was Colton 101% and Olivia brought Rylee to live just as described in the books. Her feistiness, her facial expressions her connection to Colton/Casey was as if they could read each other's thoughts.

Tosca Musk did an incredible job!!! She and her entire crew brought to life my favorite books and I have no regrets that she did. I would LOVE a do over of FSOG through her eyes with this cast. Their chemistry is so spot on it's amazing.

Great job Passionflix and Thank You Casey and Olivia for going above and beyond to make this the best love story out there!! And Kristy---I'm so excited for you that your dreams of having a few readers has turned into THIS!!!

I Race You!!!!
