Boring to Complete Chaos and Crap

Rating: 2/10 (28 March 2012)

I found this movie unnervingly long. For the first hour I felt completely lost. Ryan Gosling just played this smug looking fella that seemed to have said a total of 4 sentences throughout the entire movie. Scenes had no connection. Why did he want to help a woman he barely knew? What did this guy want to achieve in life. Why did he start talking to this woman. All these questions lead me confused and just angry.
Finally when the movie picked up it's pace, it was just overdone with violence. I love action and violence when it is done with reason but this was completely over the top. How can Ryan Gosling's character, who was just a stunt driver be the worlds best hit man as well? This I did not understand.
The story line was just a dogs breakfast and I feel sorry for anyone that has to sit through this.
