I know! Just saw it last night and LOVED it! And I'm usually pretty critical

I have a new appreciation for Ryan Gosling now. I know Crowe is a good actor - he was excellent in this.

Underrated if you enjoy covert pedophilia.

Dude, if you feel like you have leanings toward pedophilia, you need to get help.

I'm off now to see if it's as easy to block someone here as it was on IMDB.

best of 2016 for me

reply

Nah, I'd say it was rated just fine. I don't feel that I would have missed out on anything if I didn't see the movie at all - it was just barely entertaining.

Yup, it's a great movie and underrated for sure. Perfect combination of action and comedy. I'd watch a sequel, Crowe and Gosling were awesome together.

It was pretty amusing. I see all the concerns about the teenage girl being involved in a movie featuring an amount of sex and violence material but it was still pretty funny as an awkward buddy comedy. Unfortunately its box office takings were not enough to make a sequel, but I really wish we could have one. They were a great pair and I read that the two stars agreed to make it so they could work together, and it really shows.

I had fun watching this film---first of all, since neither Gosling or Crowe ever do comedy films, it was a nice treat to see both of them actually team up together in one for a change. Gosling proved with this film that he can do comedy, and that he should do another one. Didn't know Crowe could be funny at all ( the scene where Gosling searches him for a weapon to save them, and finds out he hasn't got one had me cracking up the most) so it was refreshing to see, and I loved the '70s setting. The young actress who played Gosling's daughter (Angourie Rice) was really good too, and so was Matt Bomer as the cold calculating hitman (I barely recognized him at first.) For some reason, the film really didn't get much promotion when it came out. I first saw a trailer for it when Gosling hosted SNL for the first time (he's been fun to watch the two times he was on there, too) then heard nothing about it for some months. When it finally came out it got a limited release, despite the fact that it had two big name stars in it---a shame, because it deserved better promotion than it got. And a sequel probably would have been fun to see---who knows, lol.
