Driven

Speed and sexual confusion are the orders of the day in this actioner set in the fast-paced world of CART racing. Thrusting through space in his sleek long vehicle, beautiful young racer Kip Pardue can't decide whether he's pursuing his buff Italian teammate, a dominating, severe German competitor, or the German's nubile ex-girlfriend. Scripted by costar Sylvester Stallone and directed in Renny Harlin's usual style, alternately--and sometimes simultaneously--shrill and bland, not even the lusciously bitchy Gina Gershon can elevate matters, as she's relegated to a background role. Driven's only mediocre as an action movie, but the subtext is hilarious; stay tuned for the money shot at the end, where Pardue is glazed with spurting white foam from two of his manly competitors' enormous champagne bottles.
