    Before Rush Hour there was Drive

    Drive is a lesser-known action/comedy that, despite its low budget, produced some pretty sweet action and entertainment value. I was just thinking about the flick recently and how cool it was and saddened by the fact that it has never really gotten the respect that it deserves, at least from distributors. Like the fact that you'll never find a copy on DVD anymore without spending more than $45 bucks from collectors.

    The movie stars Mark Dacascos, Kadeem Hardison, and a young up-and-coming Brittany Murphy, and many who've seen the movie may notice some similarities to the more popular Rush Hour, which came out a year after this flick. Not only does it team an ass-kickin' Asian dude with a reluctant wise-crackin' black dude, but the two even have a little neck-dance-thing goin' on in the car during one scene.

    As far as comedy goes, Rush Hour gets my vote, but when it comes to the action, definitely Drive. Cheesy, entertaining, funny, and action-packed. Check this one out :thumbup3:

    If I were to rewatch it I'd probably give it a 7/10

    Mark Dacascos is indeed a badass...I've yet to see this flick,after you mentioned it earlier and sharing a link or two,I wanna see.Like you said,trying to find a copy under 45 bucks maybe impossible,I may just have to find it online somewhere.

    Either way,Mark Dacascos

    If you can't find it streaming, you should definitely be able to get a download. It has received quite a following since its release and the fact that the movie really only got its audience through word of mouth.

    Mark Dacascos makes this worth checking out on its own. Strange that I haven't heard of it, but then again I was stuck in mainstream hell (Blockbuster) for quite some time.

    Mark

    Not really strange since (like I said in the post) the film really didn't get much promotion and (I think) might've just gone straight to video here in the US anyway. It's really up to people that have seen it to spread the word about the film :thumbup3:

    It's probably around the house somewhere.
