I would look elsewhere

Rating: 4/10 (29 May 2016)

Sorry I viewed this movie but I didn't hate it. Must say it had more violence than laughs for me. That would appeal to some more than me, I guess. Like Quentin Tarantino with some goofiness. And a cute kid. Redeeming features include 70's era cars, eye candy models (not really any erotic appeal unless you mix sex with bullets and car crashes.) The preposterous plot at least moved it forward with some appropriate villains in big business and the government. Ryan Gosling again scores by playing his favorite character, a likable rogue. Russell Crowe proves that even with a few extra pounds, you don't want to mess with him. Kim Basinger makes some appearances which are persuasive of her appeal persisting. Mixing in the kid actors was a fun addition if you don't mind the loss of childhood innocence and general cynicism of our age.
