    I didn't like the way Ryan Gosling, that woman and her kid were acting. They were just so wooden and boring Didn't make sense to me that she would fall for him. They barely spoke and then it was suddenly scenes of them sitting in silence driving together and smiling like awkward first graders who have a crush on each other

    Still have about 30 mins of the movie left but that first half was not it. Movie picks up around when Christina Hendricks shows up

    I know what you mean but it's sort of a different type of acting style (throwback to Bresson) where the characters are almost like just avatars to be plot devices and whether they really emote doesn't matter. It's also not necessarily that she fell for him but that she was magnetized to him with a primal survival urge. Letting those long pregnant pauses smolder was genius.

    I was bored as s*** during those scenes and I was thinking "Only way I'll like this movie is if they go all out with action and violence towards the end" and so far they have

    But their bond forming so quickly just doesn't make sense to me because he's like the complete opposite of charismatic. She's a single mom with a son she has to protect and he comes across as such a weirdo. The conversations feel like watching people with social disorders interact

    Not to mention Refns kinda notorious for having his actors be unnerving as f*** lmao random long ass pauses for no reason and s***

    I watched Too Old To Die Young with a girl who never seen any of his prior work and she was just baffled lmao

    Oh s***, this the same guy who did The Neon Demon I found that movie super weird too. Gorgeous movie but it's kinda difficult to sit through

    Kavinsky - Nightcall tho Recognized it because Gambino sampled it on Royalty but the original is such a great song

    Ahh
    Ngl hard to come up with anything off the top cause Inherent Vice was like being on d**** for me
    “The big Lebowski” kinda got that chill vibe, “the nice guys”
    Other dude suggested red Rocket and if you like that check out Florida project too
    “Sorry to bother you” but that gets a lil crazy even tho it’s a fun one throughout
    “Jackie brown” probably Tarantinos chillest movie and it got a nice 70s vibe like IV
