The Fall Guy. New Movie Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt (1 Viewer)

[nightmare]

Rated 7.3 on IMDB. Action, with romance, comedy, and some drama thrown in. That rating feels right.
If you can, see it in IMAX. I rate it somewhere between Deadpool and Expendables
for enjoyment factor. Without the chemistry between Gosling and Blunt the romance
parts would be not as good. The action sequences are very good. We're not talking
Mission Impossible intense but your watching a stunt guy do his job and the scenes
are realistic.

The best part of this movie is it knows it's not Deadpool good and your in on it.
Simple story. No character development as they are plug n play. Blunt is a first time
director with a problem and the producer seems to have the answers. Gosling is the Fall Guy
in more ways then one. There is some Golan/Globus type schlock. It works as you are just along
for the ride as the movie pulls you in and out of the different scenes.

It's not a "go out and see it". It is worth the big screen price and effort.

Are you old enough to have watched the TV show with Lee Majors? Just curious. Movie does look good and I did watch the show as a kid....

Wondering if this is going to be similar to Roadhouse and Point Break, fun movies that might be better if they weren't trying to grab the nostalgia of the originals and called themselves something else?

Looks like Gosling is the new Six Million Dollar Man (per month most likely).

Hello Heather Thomas

Don't stick around for the post credits then. You will be sadly disappointed.

Movie was good. Wife and I enjoyed it. She loves Gossling so she probably forgot I was even there.
That being said, Blunt is equally nice to look at.

Had some slower moments and leave your critiquing of plot holes at the door.

Grab some popcorn and enjoy what it's meant to be.

Movies currently in theaters - Worth going? Stay home? Rent later?

I thought we had a thread for this at one time. :shrug: Anyway... I got free tickets to see an advanced screening of The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare last night. Generally I liked it. From the trailers it seems like it should be a action movie. But since it's a Guy Ritchie film it's...
