Ryan Gosling isn't right for these types of films. Ben Foster would have been so much better.

Dude, in today's Hollywood, if I quit watching remakes, I'd never see another movie again.

| #5 Posted on 19.9.11 0648.17 | I think this was absolute perfection. The way this film delivers just blew my mind. Refn creates tension here in ways I've not seen before and I loved it.
