Pretty good movie

Rating: 7/10 (2 August 2018)

Although it appears as a pilot for a TV series (since it screams for sequel(s)), this movie can remain "as is". It is fun to watch, most of the time something happens, some dark jokes and the "dynamic duo". Mr. Gosling finally shows his acting abilities (pretty good, for that matter) and Mr. Crowe' s art is not affected by aging. On the contrary. He does not have to be some Roman general to do his job with excellency. Story is a bit mumbo-jumbo, but direction is good. Also, the Australian girl (Angourie Rice) has a bright future, if she does not blow it. Yaya DaCosta is beautiful and Ms. Basinger still has it. All in all, worth your time. Go for it.
