User Reviews [Review this film]

"Very Good. For what it's worth, Driven is based off the former "CART" series/current "IndyCar" series, NOT Formula One. The racing action is very, very good and the soundtrack is, in my opinion, outstanding. Some aspects of the plot are never fully fleshed out and some of the character development falls flat (however, the deleted scenes on the DVD fill in the gaps quite nicely... too bad an uncut version doesn't exist). In the end, more believable than Days of Thunder and easily as entertaining, if not moreso." --Mike

"Very Good. This film didn't get good ratings from the critics but that's probably because most critics never have been to a racing event. This is one of the top auto racing movies. The racing footage was outstanding and the crashes just as good." --Jason of SportsInMovies.com
