Saw a website saying it opened yesterday, but doesn't seem to be listed or advertised on the CGV website, nor the Megabox website. But I was at the Megabox in Sinchon last night and I swear I saw it listed with that night's showtimes. Can anyone confirm? Can't wait to see this motha.

Thanks... but I still don't see it on there. Can you post a link to the schedule, or if you happen to have a moment, just list the times tonight and tomorrow?

I know the Megabox website says it isn't in Sinchon... but... I was there last night and I am 98% sure I saw it being advertised with showtimes, along with other movies. I didn't notice the title (slow Korean reader) but I'm almost certain it was the Drive poster.

There is nothing special about the movie anyway. Just grab the torrent of the screener and watch it on a big tv. Really it's not a great movie or anything, it's just been hyped.

it is just my opinion, but I thought it was an excellent movie; one of the best films of the year.

It was notable for the retro eighties producton design and a couple of the killing scenes, but other than that, utterly forgetable.

Agreed. It seems that "annoyingly 80s" has now become a genre.

I saw nothing of substance in that movie.

It was good, but not great. The violence wasn't the worst I've ever seen. The soundtrack was raved about but I felt it got in the way a few times.

Overall, it was just okay.
