Art/film style of Drive

Drive is one of my all time favourite films due to it's simple yet unique art style. This is apparent in camera work, editing, sound, and mis-en-scene. The film is a slow paced thriller with action elements throughout. However due to it's slow pace, the film is arguably more thrilling. Occasional scenes of violence or deep emotion seem far more meaningful and impacting in comparison to other thrillers I have seen.
Unfortunately this continuous slow pace was unappreciated on release due to regenrefication- the film was marketed as a non-stop film based around a driver and his car.
