“Driveways” Review
"Driveways" is a nuanced portrait of an Asian American family, touching on themes of loss, growth, and belonging.

This moving-image and sound performance remixes promotional films from the 1920’s to the 70’s that advertised the Canadian wilderness as a holiday destination.

There were too many irrelevant parts that could have been shortened, and too many characters that didn't advance the plot. Either way, some things didn't add up. This was just another played out plot with little, if any, originality in it. By the end of the film, I wasn't happy that she finally got her freedom, I was happy that it was finally over.
This story solidified my choices to consume a more plant-based diet and nearly made me cancel my subscriptions to big corporations like Amazon. The narrative was perfectly crafted and on par with Bong Joon-Ho’s other major works; Parasite and Snowpiercer.
Jordan Peele’s film is an intelligent and unflinching piece of work, firmly focused on the African American experience.
