Honestly I didn't care for Drive or Midnight in Paris. Drive because Gosling was not a real person in any sense. It seemed like an attempt to remake Shane in a modern setting but it really didn't work for me.

Midnight in Paris was just too easy, shallow, and lazy a movie. The boorish Americans were cliches,
Hemmingway got annoying, and I never bought into Owen Wilson as legitimately a good author or anyone to care about for that matter. I love Paris but cinematography alone can't make a movie.

To be fair I didn't hate them and they are better than 80% of the movies being made but I'd just as soon have my 2 hours back.
