Drive Back

So what was the time loop for? For the couple to realize that the woman is (or rather) cheated on the man 'a long time ago' with cheap jump scares with the man in the mask and the 'stop talking' guy who wasn't scary at all and remember the hitchhiker how did he become good and helped them all of a sudden? These are issues that I had with this movie because it felt like a bland horror type thriller that just didn't land (even with the cheap jump scares) a time loop run of the mill movie that looked lost even in the year 2024 when it was made. And an arguing couple who were quite annoying trying to solve their issues even in the 'loop'. Overall if you get to watch this movie I tell you to watch once because it refused to pick up. Time doesn't really matter in here!! And this felt like a real drag. Whether it's hallucinations or just cheap jump scares this movie showed that and more but didn't save it from been bang on average.

Wow, I am so pleasantly surprised at how competent this film is! I'm a huge fan of weird scenario films, people being taken or placed in some insane scenario and just having to navigate their way through it.

I noticed almost all the negative reviews are from people who were confused by it, or lacked the comprehension to understand what they were seeing, but it all makes sense by the end. Perhaps they didn't make it to the end, but I absolutely enjoyed watching the bizarre stuff happening to them, inexplicable at the time, but fully realized by the end of the movie.

My only complaint was that it felt predictable at times, but in a fun and familiar way. When the old man appeared for the first time, I told myself that I had a guess on who he was, and I was right. It would have been a very cool introductory movie for those into bizarre scenario films like YellowBrickRoad, or In The Tall Grass, or Triangle, but if you hated this film because it was confusing, those films will be a nightmare for you to navigate.

Lastly, I will say the shots are well done, the acting is all passable to good, and it's a competently made film, if not slightly predictable for veterans of the genre.

"Drive Back" is an exciting 10/10 movie that mixes fun and fear. The story is about a couple who are coming home from their engagement party, but their trip takes a scary turn when they meet strange people in the woods. The spooky scenes and beautiful pictures make you feel like you are right there with them. The actors do a great job showing how scared they are. Each surprise in the story keeps you guessing, and it doesn't use the same old tricks that other scary movies do. The tension builds up really well, leading to an amazing ending that will leave you surprised. For anyone who loves thrilling stories, "Drive Back" is a must-see movie that you will remember long after watching it. It shows how quickly a happy moment can change into something scary, making it a perfect choice for a fun movie night!

This movie was good, don't get me wrong. The plot of being stuck in a time vortex and needing to go through the same experiences but with your past self walking around. The story has twists and turns that are interesting..however, the stupidity of the characters during the beginning had me super angry. They get better as time moves on, but their stupidity almost made me stop watching due to anger. Again, not a bad movie. But it wasn't necessarily good either. Overall, the acting is pretty alright, and there wasn't too much gore to where it was just straight up GORE and just gore. The ending was a little confusing but not the worst I've ever seen. Overall, a solid 5/10. Not good, but not bad either.

The first half of the movie was going in circles and nothing happened. The movie lost me almost at the first quarter when I didn't care about the characters anymore.

Some of the scenes were too long, with basic dialogues and poor acting. At some point I just wanted the movie to be over.

Overall I give it 3 stars.
