Saw it today. Really, really liked it. Not sure what people were expecting from it but if it was just to be entertaining then it hit that in spades.
Soundtrack: Great!
Chemistry: Great!
Humor: Very funny
Action: Duh!
Just a fun movie.

I think we would've liked it a lot better but the audio mix was terrible in our theater. The dialog literally sounded like they were talking with their hands over their mouths, extremely muffled and hard to discern. If the character wasn't looking toward the camera it was really hard to understand

Some of the recent discussions have gotten me thinking, and I say this as a straight male...
Is Ryan Gosling as attractive to women and gay men as he seems to me?
Or is he just what men's idea of an attractive male is?
As a red-blooded woman, I can confirm that RG is very attractive to women!
Saw the movie last night. It was fluff, but I enjoyed it for what it was - a fun popcorn summer movie.
Well that was pretty good.
Even though it's (loosely) based on an old tv show, it felt like an original, big budget action/comedy. We don't get too many of those these days. Pretty fun.

Somehow this was my first non re-release movie in the theater in 2024. What a blast. Wife and I loved it, My first time seeing WInston Duke out of his M'Baku role. Goslin has achieved the rare feat of guys think you're cool / women want you that is so hard to achieve.
Winston Duke is someone I wish all the roles and praise that he deserves. Dude is insanely talented.The Porkchop Express said:

Took my 13 year old to see it yesterday, and she said it was her new favorite movie. Surprisingly, the theater was full as well.The Porkchop Express said:

Some of you idiots have the same problem that my 12 year old daughter has.
You have to have the last word.
You can use a message board 2 ways.
To talk about things that you like and enjoy.
or
To argue incessantly with other people about things that neither of you will convince the other is correct.
One of you, some of you, any of you, for the love of God, realize that the other person isn't "winning" if you decide not to respond to their message. You don't have to keep firing back. You're all idiots for doing it.

Looks like word of mouth is helping this one.

Fun movie, and really felt like a big thumbs up to all the stunt folks in the industry
I was talking about this movie with a buddy of mine the other day, and I said I wanted to see it. I was surprised when he said I could already stream it. So my wife and I rented it on Prime last night. I definitely regret not going to the theater to see it. It was really fun.
I regularly watched the TV show, and I was a little worried about how they would treat the material. Since I don't think they could have made a movie that fit the series exactly, I think they did well with what they had.

Saw it this weekend with my wife.
We both loved it. It was goofy, fun, funny, good action and my wife said "Gosling is easy to look at!". We both really enjoyed that it was just entertaining.
Told several couples we know they should go see it.

Fantastic movie all around. Cast and acting was great, and the film was nonstop hilarity.
Loved it. Great summer entertainment. It had everything I wanted - action, comedy, romance. Two great leads.

Fun fun movie.
Is it cinematic excellence? Probably not. Is it entertaining and fun? Very much so.
Also I noticed something interesting for me personally...
Emily Blunt in still photography = just ok
Emily Blunt in film/in motion = really attractive

She steals every scene in "Devil Wears Prada" too.
This movie was a summer popcorn movie. Fun stunt sequences and Gosling's charm and charisma make it work.
So good in DWP
It's really come into its own at the box office. They dropped it from 900 theaters this week (from 3,800 to 2,,900 and it only dropped from $11m to $9m on the weekend and is up to $80m. I wish they wouldn't release it to streaming so soon; seems like it could have made $100m wit hanother month strictly in the theater.
Life is better with a beagle
$158MM and counting...
Just watched it on the plane last night and definitely want to watch it again.
With all the Sydney locations, I had to laugh several times when they're in Kirribilli one second and then turn a corner in front of Chifley Plaza in the next frame.
Hannah Waddingham was great but man did they take a beauty and work hard to make her look as awful as possible.
Anyway, thoroughly enjoyable.

It's streaming on Peacock now. Have an extended cut with 20' more but we watched the normal version so I'm not sure if the extra content is any good.
Watched on Peacock now. Movie is great. Soundtrack is absolutely on point.
As somebody else said. Emily Blunt is just getting better with age.

Just watched it on peacock too. Different movie from what I was expecting, but thought it was great. Agreed on the soundtrack.
The guy a couple pages back complaining about Emily Blunt needs to get the banhammer.
Watched it in theater, and now watched again on peacock, and I really have enjoyed it both times.
We even got someone in the house going with " favorite movie they've seen since 2020"
That person has declared a lot of movies their favorite but still high praise.

I actually think this is why the movie didn't do as well in the theatre's as it could have.
I had no idea what this movie was going to be about before watching it. I just saw it was on Peacock and Gosling and Blunt are typically good.
Was it just me or did it seem between Gosling's character and the "movie star" they were just parodying actors?
Seemed like I saw at least a Bieber and McConaughey in there. I'm sure with all the action we were getting a Tom Cruise as well.
My family randomly watched this on Peacock too. We thought it was really good. Great action scenes and every person in it was great, even the smaller parts. Only two things didn't work for me: the random drug scene in the middle, it was really only a weird way to get from point A to point B; and I thought the dialog wasn't as snappy as they thought it was.
next stop, live action Beavis and Butthead movie.
Caught this on Peacock as well this weekend and we really enjoyed it. The action was solid, good amount of comedy as well, it was just fun. We watched the extended version on accident so it ran a little long, maybe check out the standard cut if anyone is interested. I'll admit I kinda geeked out on the two trucks. The old school one that Gosling drove at home and the new one he drove in Australia with matching paint jobs.
For a movie with a ton of explosions and stunts, it was boring and terrible
Wow! I really enjoyed that. First time I awhile that iced enjoyed an action flick. I would definitely watch a sequel.
Well…you sounded taller on radio.
Just saw on the plane yesterday. Twenty to thirty minutes too long, decent way to kill a few hours on a long haul but not something I think I'll ever watch again. And the TexAgs slap fight this thread became is only tarnishing me even more on the movie.
Also just watched on a plane. Thoroughly entertained.
