Ryan Gosling spends his entire movie in one of two states: with a goofy grin on his face or violently and graphically killing people. He plays a get-away car driver for hire because he likes to drive. When he gets in on a bad job, he has to clean it up, by killing everyone. Los Angeles streets are supposed to be a major character in the film, but they just don't act very well. This is not like Collatoral or 10 Items or Less which both used LA well. Gosling is just a silent, morose, messed up dude. Maybe it was just to "arty" for me. I didn't get it.
2 stars (out of 5)
