   Aug 21, 2015 · 4 min read. Learning to Drive. “Learning to Drive” is advertised as a two-hander about life lessons, which is problematic if you’ve cast a cynical, superior gaze toward this type of movie. People finding themselves through some kind of metaphor for perseverance is a topic ripe with hate-watching possibilities.

   The whole cast offers viewers authentic performances, elevating an already pretty good movie close to greatness. Learning to Drive also makes the most of New York City as its backdrop, though not in the same cliched ways many other films do. The borough of Queens comes alive; the arteries and highways seem nearly as essential as the subways.

   Is learning to drive a good movie?

   • “Learning to Drive” proves that good acting can elevate even the most standard material. Clarkson makes Wendy more than a wronged wife; she has enough self-awareness to consider that she may not be completely blameless in her crumbling marriage. Her anger and melancholy are balanced with a dry wit that yields some big laughs.

   Is learning to drive a comedy movie?

   • Moments of humor gently tilt “Learning to Drive” toward comedy.
