Loved it too, and especially for it's reserve which in turn makes the violence all the more intense. I became obsessed with the blue and orange palette in nearly all the shots, but it's beautifully shot. Bring on the Logan's Run remake...
- yeah, i agree. the first real violent scene is when he stomp the guy in the lift. so intense...sine

I was convinced it was set in the 80's until I saw a mobile phone.

If you liked this one, check out Bronson by the same director.
Actually the earlier Pusher films are good too - Danish gangster movies:)
- Didn't know Bronson was the same director. I like him!orrinward2
- He also directed Valhalla Rising. Which is amazing and brutal.Bets

Maybe i missed something.
The movie is boring.
Image wise, it's nice.
Music is horrible, with dumb lyrics.
Acting was,...weird.
I didn't liked it.

I thought it was average, the only thing I dig from it is the soundtrack.

Rented this last night. I really loved the homage to '80s cool with the music/montage fade-through cuts between scenes when he's driving. This extends into the rest of the film, from the typography to the clothing, cars and even environment. It was nothing near True Romance when it comes to cinematography, dialogue, LA glam or style, but it's close. Even the violence didn't make as much sense here. The soundtrack was the tits though and overall I loved it. Unfortunately it's not a watch-again type of film.
- the elevator scene was over the top, unnecessary.ernexbcn

- at least in this film you care more about the characters and the violence is more justifiedmonospaced

People either really love this movie or really hate it.

I like it a lot. Good film, shows LA real nice, well shot, nice motifs of color on the traffic lights etc, good film. It;s not true Romance, but the director's not Tarantino. Gosling's good in it too, doesn't say too much which is the mark of a talented actor
- Tarantino didn't direct True Romance. He wrote it.monospaced

In the opening scene, the cops didn't see him, but they chased him anyway.
- It was close to being great, but a lot of it threw me off.

^ They had a description of his car and knew he was in the area. Listen to the police scanner.
