Leave your thoughts about Driven.
| Seattle TimesDoug KimDriven is one of those wince-inducing movies that makes you wonder if every single person involved was deliberately trying to embarrass themselves. |
| Movie MetropolisJohn J. PuccioStallone plays a down-and-outer, a washed-up athlete who makes a comeback and proves himself a hero. No, wait. That was Rocky. No matter. |
| Katrillion.comRon BishowThe dialogue is so bad in Driven that at one of the dramatic points, the crowd erupted in laughter. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekSpins its wheels tediously for a couple of hours before exploding in a fireball of melodramatic excess. |
| Matinee MagazineChuck RudolphThe most inept and cataclysmic motion picture to get released since Battlefield Earth. |

| Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanMostly preposterous, and it has no dramatic center, but the racing scenes hold you in their death-trip grip. |
| San Francisco ExaminerJoe LeydonManages the difficult feat of appearing lavishly expensive and irredeemably cheesy all at once. |
| EricDSnider.comEric D. SniderEnjoy those racing scenes, and take a nap the rest of the time. |
