Drive(2011)
A Hollywood stunt performer who moonlights as a wheelman discovers that a contract has been put on him after a heist gone wrong. For more about Drive and the Drive Blu-ray release, see the Drive Blu-ray Review Starring: Ryan Gosling, Carey Mulligan, Bryan Cranston, Albert Brooks, Ron Perlman Director: Nicolas Winding Refn Drive Blu-ray, Video QualityDrive features a rich and satisfying 1080p Blu-ray transfer. The digital photography translates wonderfully here. There's very light banding and noise to be seen in one or two shots, but the transfer is otherwise extraordinarily pristine. The movie opens in relative darkness, lit sparsely but effectively. Blacks are superb here and elsewhere; shadow detail is strong, and overhead nighttime shots of a city lit only by street lights and the glow of high-rise office building windows truly sparkle and showcase an almost uncanny sense of visual realism. Definition is wonderfully crisp, and clarity is oftentimes breathtaking. Even in shadows and low light, the image reveals impeccable facial and clothing details, not to mention gauges and accents inside the cars. Brighter scenes, of which there were many, sparkle. Not only does detail remain incredibly strong, but color balance proves faultless. The interior of a supermarket that's awash in bright product-pushing shades, the warm interior of a wood-paneled elevator, and the deep blue denim of a shirt are all pure, never straying from a vivid but balanced appearance. Flesh tones, no surprise, are also finely-tuned throughout. No matter its place or time, Drive's Blu-ray transfer remains strong. The digital photography never takes on that glossy, lifeless appearance, the movie instead organic and eye-catching from beginning to end. The sum of the whole is another brilliant Blu-ray outing from Sony. Drive Blu-ray, Audio QualityDrive speeds onto Blu-ray with a sonically intense and pure DTS-HD MA 5.1 lossless soundtrack. Music styles range from soft to raucous, yet the track handles all with precision and clarity. Music accompanying a montage in chapter five plays remarkably smooth and airy, while heavier beats energize the soundstage but remain accurate and true to style. All is spacious and enveloping, which carries over to every other sonic element that shapes the movie. Whether a steady undercurrent of heavy bass -- which only takes a turn for the slightly unkempt at the very bottom -- or whisper-quiet ambience, the track always folds the listener into each and every moment. Even with subtle elements like radio police chatter or the "door ajar" warning chime of a Chevy Impala, there's no shortage of seamless, well-constructed and finely-intetgrated audible elements that round the track into seamless form. High impact sound effects are equally revealing. A helicopter buzzes overhead in an early scene. Car engines rumble, tires squeal, and metal twists in various chase scenes. Gunshots blast out with startling precision that will rattle the listener's nerves. Squishy gore effects sound authentic. Dialogue is steady and center-focused, even if it's sometimes rare. This is another strong, very well constructed lossless soundtrack from Sony.
