Driven (2001)

Storyline

Talented rookie race-car driver Jimmy Bly has started losing his focus and begins to slip in the race rankings. It's no wonder, with the immense pressure being shoveled on him by his overly ambitious promoter brother as well as Bly's romance with his arch rival's girlfriend Sophia. With much riding on Bly, car owner Carl Henry brings former racing star Joe Tanto on board to help Bly. To drive Bly back to the top of the rankings, Tanto must first deal with the emotional scars left over from a tragic racing accident which nearly took his life.

Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
The movie is so filled with action that dramatic conflict would be more than we could handle, so all of the characters are nice.

Bob Graham
Even if his (Stallone) own star may be fading, the popularity of car racing is enormous. These fans are not likely to be disappointed by Driven.

Philadelphia Inquirer
Carrie Rickey
Driven is in both its script and its execution a paint-by-numbers affair.

New York Magazine (Vulture)
Peter Rainer
Driven is recommended only to those gentle souls who want to know what it looks like to crash into a wall at 200 mph.

New Times (L.A.)
Luke Y. Thompson
Stallone's script is well structured, though the jaw-droppingly banal dialogue gives us little reason to care.
