This movie stars Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe as investigators of the disappearance of somebody named Amelia (Margaret Qualley).
It is very hard to care about anybody in this film as they all pretty much are terrible people. It is practically a farce parade and I kept waiting for someone to care about and any reason to care. Finally after about 60 minutes, I asked my spouse if he was getting into this at all. After about five more minutes he also was in the same space: enough is enough, turn it off.
You’re definitely not the only one. I was baffled by the good reviews considering how little enjoyment I got out of it. I even watched it twice, because it felt like if I disliked it that much I must be missing something big! I think the comedy just didn’t land for me - not my type of humor - and without that there’s not much to stay engaged with.
