The original is a masterpiece. That said, I loved the sequel and have rewatched it multiple times. However, I don’t know if it is because I love the film or just anything Ryan Gosling is in 🤤😅
Drive?
Didn’t catch that one. Any good?
Certainly my favourite Gosling film. It's one of those movies with a lot of ambiance; if you watch it, don't doomscroll at the same time.
The elevator scene is so beautiful.
Oh wow! I’ll have to give it a go then. ☺️
Not everyone is a cinephile, and some people like watching movies in the background.
I can't stand this attitude personally, and when I sit down to watch a movie with someone, I get annoyed when they don't pause for getting a drink, or do something on their phones.
If it was a movie like Deadpool, I can tolerate it, people can listen to the jokes, but put their phones down during action.
Then there are movies which would be a downright mistake to become distracted. This is one of those movies IMO.
I'll certainly agree that phones shouldn't be tolerated at the cinema, and ushers should instruct people to put their phones away.
Though, at home, people can do what they want.
The first movie I saw with Gosling was Lars and the Real Girl. I didn't get his appeal then, but I do now. I should watch that movie again because as weird as that movie is, I think his performance is stellar.
I agree wholly. He’s just so handsome and talented to boot.
Knife Guys™ is so freaking funny too.
