Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

First moto doc that had me considering just how dangerous these machines, and what we do with them, really can be. A real tear-jerker. And what impressed me the most was the editing -- complimented by shots of crashes through P.O.V.'s and helicopter footage, (not too mention the vintage reels) -- you can't help but *feel* what you're experiencing as a viewer. Quite an achievement as documentary format goes, if you ask me. The story is beyond compelling, albeit slow at times. Proverbial celebrity-with-euro-accent- narration was in no way distracting or over the top. Liam fit right in with rest of the micks just fine. :)

This is a powerful and very moving film excellently and subtly narrated by Liam Neeson. The film is about 2 sets of brothers, Joey (Yer Maun) & Robert Dunlop and Robert's sons William & Michael. These men are probably the greatest motorcycle road racers of all time. Motorcycle road racing is without doubt one of the most dangerous sports in the world today where even the smallest error can be fatal. This movie captures some amazing and thrilling footage of the riders in action on Irish country roads and on the legendary Isle Of Man TT Course, there are also many fascinating interviews with the riders, their families, friends and their mechanics. This can at times be a hard movie to watch, it's hard not to shed a tear at some of the incidents shown. Liam Neson's narration is of the "less is more" variety, intelligently it lets the riders and the pictures do the talking. A must see, even for those who are not fans of motor sport.

There had been a Joey Dunlop documentary on BT Sports earlier this year, which had centred solely on Joey himself. This documentary expanded on the Dunlop family dynasty with brother Robert and his sons Michael and William who are both still active in the sport.You'll get most from this film if you're a road-race fan, MotoGp fan, biker or simply a fan of motor sports in general. It's the heartfelt and intensively emotional interviews with the family and friends of Joey and Robert that make this so engrossing just from the human interest element alone.The final crash footage towards the end of this documentary was so gut wrenchingly sad. The subsequent insistence of both sons to continue racing 2 days later was just mind-blowing.This is a real-life story that just holds your attention from start to finish.

Wow. What a film Drive is. I had heard of the Dunlop name many years ago but not being a road racing fan i never knew their story other than hearing Joey's name when i was a kid. This remarkable documentary tells the story of Brothers Joey and Robert , intermingled with footage of Robert's two sons and how road racing is their life . I can't imagine what makes these men play with their lives , road racing on these extremely dangerous machines but this film gives some sort of insight in to how dedicated these men were. Narrated by Liam Neeson with moving interviews from family and friends and some amazing race footage , this is one of the best films i have seen in a very long time.10 out of 10
