movie (aka ryan gosling) night

We watched The Ides of March Friday night and guys, I really wanted to love this movie.  Because, I mean...it's got George Clooney AND Ryan Gosling in it!  But it just didn't deliver.  Don't get me wrong, the performances were really great, but at the end I was left thinking "Annnnnnd...what happens next?  Surely this isn't the end, because that doesn't really make any sense."  But it was the end, friends.  And we were disappointed.  OK guys, I really like Ryan Gosling a lot, so I decided to give him another chance.  Which is how we got here...

Drive was better.  But I had heard that it was amazing and I would say that it was just pretty good.  I mean I liked it but I don't think it was the best movie I'd ever seen.  Also, Ryan Gosling was pretty great (duh) and it was entertaining.  Carey Mulligan and Christina Hendricks did really well too.  So that's how our Friday night was turned into a tribute to Ryan Gosling.

I don't think I can watch these two movies, only because I love Ryan Gosling and I won't let that ruin it :)

I watched Drive recently and I really didn't like it..but when Ryan Gosling is in a terrible movie its pretty equivalent to any other great movie because at least you got to watch Ryan Gosling for 2 hours. That can never be bad!
