Terrific !!!!

Rating: Null/10 (5 October 2011)

I'll be honest. I thought of Steve Mac Queen all long this movie. The lead character would have been just for him. From the start to the end. A real masterpiece that also makes you think of Walter Hill's DRIVER, with a character - played by Ryan O Neal - very closer to this one. But Hill's feature was less exciting. This director hes something of Michael Mann, when he shows LA, and David Cronenberg, especially when he shows violence, so intense, brutal and surprising; I thought of HISTORY OF VIOLENCE or EASTERN PROMISES. The lead character - with no name - is unforgettable. I think Ryan Gosling gives here one of his best performance, whatever he will do later. This character will reveal him to the all world.
I won't add anything more to the other comments, far better than mine. But DON'T MISS IT.
