5. Ryan Gosling is even more charismatic
After playing the charismatic Ken doll in the live action film Barbie, Gosling managed to outdo himself and embody an even more sympathetic and seductive character. Colt Seavers is funny, charming and has what it takes to win the girl back after disappearing from her life for a year.
He also does well in action scenes, but shines even more when he cracks funny jokes that make the viewer laugh. The credit for this success goes to the text and also to the actor, who managed to maintain the right tone and not take the path of exaggerated interpretations typical of action films.
4. Timely jokes
Speaking of jokes, the humor of The stuntman It’s one of the film’s biggest hits. It abandons the slapstick tone adopted in the classic series to rely on puns and clever jokes.
One of the best moments is when Colt isolates himself in the car to cry while listening to Taylor Swift. Besides these, there are other great moments where Colt and his beloved Judy talk on the radio, and even the special appearance of a dog who only obeys commands in French. And, for cinema lovers, the film also dialogues with several other productions, bringing with it great jokes about it Rocky and the The last of the Mohicans.
3. Special appearances
In addition to the stellar cast, The stuntman brings two special appearances that make the plot even better. One happens at the end, to give a special flavor to the result, and the other in the middle of the film. So as not to spoil the surprise, we’ll let you discover it, but the hint is that one of them comes from an actor who participated in the original series.
2. The right amount of romance
If there’s one thing the film can boast of, it’s timing both the comedy and the romance.
For those more fond of sugar-and-water plots, there are beautiful moments in which the two protagonists exchange affection, and more often than not Colt strives to win back the heart of his beloved, even putting himself in situations of extreme danger. The big kiss only comes in the final scenes, but the synergy between the two is such that it’s practically impossible not to root for them throughout the story.
Despite this, the film does not forget that it belongs to the action genre and does not focus too much on melodrama, establishing itself as a production capable of pleasing Greeks and Trojans.
1. Plot capable of captivating any audience
And speaking of plot, writer Drew Pearce (Hotel Artemide) managed to write a story full of twists and a few holes. Furthermore, in collaboration with director David Leitch, he created a agile plot capable of keeping the audience’s eyes on the screen for two hours and five minutes.
And the best thing is that the plot of The stuntman It shows Hollywood from the inside, that is, it shows behind the scenes of a film, what it means to shoot an action film and highlights, above all, the work of the various stuntmen who dedicate themselves to making the film. And if Leitch’s wishes come true, there will still be some action-packed sequences with exciting stories for audiences to enjoy.
