Critic Reviews:

• " In times when there is a particular insistence on the explosiveness of emotions, when lukewarmness is criticized as a lack of affective (or political) commitment, Drive my Car is not only a good film, but an important one. " – Agustín Acevedo Kanopa (La Diaria)

• " Drive My Car looks at the nature of grief through the emotions of reserved characters, but conveys a world of healing that cannot be summed, only felt most ardently, most appreciatively. " – Sukanya Verma (Rediff.com)

• " Drive My Car is a mesmerising film that stays with you long afterwards. Its rhythm and pace enfolds the viewer: by the end you see how necessary and fitting that three-hour journey was and how much it encompassed. " – Alexa Dalby (Dog and Wolf)
