Drive Angry is a genuine grindhouse picture. Since Grindhouse(Death Proof and Planet Terror) came out there's been a rejuvenation of the grindhouse film. Nick Cage breaks out of Hell for revenge on the people that have killed his family. The movie is basically a none stop ride of violence, fast cars, and sex. The plot is more of a ride than an actual followable narrative. William Fichner does a great turn as 'The Accountant' a minon from hell sent to bring Cage back.
The movie is full of quips and one liners. There's a scene where Cage has sex with a waitress while he kills multiple villains...
For what it is, I think this movie is great. See it. Cage plays Cage. Crazy, bound by nothing, murderous. And of course there are some great lines. At the end of the picture Cage is being taken back to hell. An old school T-Bird appears out of nothing to drive him back.
"Even in Hell, there is compassion."
