This was a lot of fun. Tonally it is all over the place, but Gosling is magnetic and the action was really well done. It's a bit long and the plot is a little unwieldy, but it delivers on making it a very entertaining watch.

For a certain film fan who likes their movies moving incredibly slowly and who has a lot of time on their hands, I guess maybe its not the worst thing in the world.
