I love reading people picking apart movies for technical inaccuracies. I'm not a car nerd but I did think in a movie called Drive, about a stunt Driver who moonlights as a getaway Driver, there wasn't as much Driving as I expected.

I can't pretend I like seeing Ryan Gosling's name on a movie, but I agree about Gangster Squad. I mentioned that I often enjoy 6-7 (IMDB) rated movies, and that's one of them.
Yeah, I wouldn't watch a movie just for the music (obviously).

I think the technical stuff is what made it worse, I think if a movie is interesting, you don't really notice that sort of thing. But, because it was already grating on me, when those things started creeping in, it just made it look like a joke in my eyes.

I even find a few movies on IMDB that are rated as low as 4/10 that I like, after Drive, I no longer trust the ratings on there as much anyway .
