Although it is by Drive writer/director Nicolas Winding Refn, and stars Ryan Gosling, this isn't a sequel to that film. From what I understand, Gosling plays a drug trafficker/bare-knuckle boxer in the Bangkok underworld.

I saw the movie but thought it was a little too slow paced. The action was great when there was action, but the music dramatized it too the point where I became bored and desensitized to all the violence.

This movie was 90% crap. It was nothing like Drive. The violence is overstylized and has no point. It's extremely graphic. Freudian/Oedipal elements dominate. They even strangle the life from the film.

"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives."
Winter is Coming

Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.

Pretty much agree with everything there.

I did like it. But even if you hated it I'd recommend the Pusher trilogy by Winding Refn. Heavily influenced by Mean streets.

I saw all three Pusher films. Not bad.
