Is it just me that thinks Ryan Gosling comes across a bit mentally retarded?
I saw Place beyond the Pines yesterday....why is he so fecking wooden?
He's a terrible actor and I struggle to think of anything that he's been really good in. A young Dennis Quaide.
I thought Gosling was quite good in Crazy Stupid Love and Lars and the Real Girl.
The only other film I've seen of his was Drive, which seems to be a bit of a marmite film.
He's also good in Blue Valentine. Unfortunately it looks like off the back of Drive (a film I liked) people have tried to cast him as something like the new Steve Mcqueen (laconic and cool, with very little facial movement) as opposed to just asking him to act the character he is playing.
His role in Drive works for me because of the type of character he is supposed to be beneath the surface, since then(possibly before) unfortunately people seem to think he's ok getting by with the same performance and it simply does not work in fact Hectic is right it makes him look retarded. He really needs to go back to the drawing board with his career and start acting again.
