FASTER

This isn't a heroic story, this isn't a movie about redemption or even ascension. This movie is about death, all who wronged this walking wraith have death coming down the highway at them. Driver isn't trying to be saved, he isn't trying to be forgiven. He doesn't want to hear your tearful begging for your life.

He wants you to die, quickly. .38 justice is coming your way and if you haven't made your peace with whatever you pray to, he doesn't give a damn. From the moment the story opens you kind of realize a pent up cat is about to be released, the way he drones the warden out as the warden tries to convince him basically not to do what he can see in his eyes. His only question after the wardens impassioned speech: "Where's the exit".

And when he steps out of the jail is anybody waiting for him, no

Is his ride late, uh uh

He's got a nice long hike in the desert sun to get to a junk yard, with a black and white old school chevelle in it, with a note and a 38 waiting for him. You don't know why the first man dies but those parts of the story are filled in by flashbacks. What you do know, there were no words exchanged. And the men who died all deserved it, while it may look random now (since this revenge was 10 years in the making) these men all have an interconnected history dating back to one fateful day.  As one character says "we make our own hell in our lives".

Yes these men all share one day in the past. Lives were lost, destiny was set in motion and the bill has come due. Now one of the men with this outstanding balance they kind of feel a little antsy so they hire Killer to head driver off before he gets down to the end of their list. Killer is an interesting character he is driven by issues from his past to do what he does, it's kind of impulsive he appears to be good at what he does but is he really ready to stop driver in his tracks.

If you have death of course you have to have police or in this case Cop, he's a few weeks from retirement and a complete screw up. He is basically circling the bowl and trying to do right by his ex wife and kid. And here comes this case, a bunch of random people popping up dead no theft, no arguments just dead people. The deeper you get into the movie there is a lagging question that keeps coming up: How did they all happen to meet together on that fateful day, what unfortunate soul is Driver looking for to finally bring all debts current. 2 of those on "the list" have been expecting this day for a long time, when you give birth to a demon he always comes home, 2 I guess never gave a thought to it and one of course called Killer.

So hop in the chevelle, buckle up, and hold on tight because it's time to go Faster
