      i just saw a picture of the movie unleashed with jet li that movie gota 7.0 rating . and that movie was boring as hell.
      How much action can you possibly want out of a movie? It's all action from the get go until about half an hour in when Morgan Freeman and the girl take him into their home where the movie get's sentimental for a short while until Lee is captured and imprisoned again and all hell breaks loose for about the last half hour. Why do some people want wall to wall action and no story?

        Ryan gosling ?? seriously ?? i suppose you think morgan freeman would be perfect for terminator reboot ?
        I dont know what ppl (women mostly) see in ryan, hes nothing too special saw a few of his films, he doesnt seem that impressive
        I think van damme was perfect for nowhere to run

          Gosling may not be a fantastic actor, but he's a helluva lot better than Van Damme.

            Wrong. Gosling can't act his way out of a paper bag. Van Damme brings out real emotion. He's charming yet sensitive. Smooth with a sharp edge. Simple yet witty. And like you, gauche yet tactful.

                Damn right. To me, Gosling is like DiCaprio. Gosling has been an underacting bore for years, whereas DiCaprio has been an over-acting bore for years. They've given some good performances in their careers alright (never been that impress with Gosling), but "lately" their acting has become self-conscious and yet it's always getting praise beyond belief. Now when it comes to an action star like Van Damme, all I can say is his acting is indeed underrated. Granted he's been in some generic flicks that require little to no acting, but nevertheless, the guy has always had the capacity to convincingly express emotions. In a word, I find his acting in movies such as Lionheart, Double Impact, Timecop, Maximum Risk, In Hell, and of course JCVD, to be quite effective. Ultimately, I know the "real" actors previously mentioned are two of the most beloved thespians of our time shudder so mentioning Van Damme in the same breathe as them is laughable to many. At any event, while Van Damme made a name for himself in action flicks, he could have been great in more dramatic stuff (Nowhere to Run was a good example).
                Hey there, Johnny Boy, I hope you fry!

                  I didn't read but saw the title of the Post.
                  So if Ryan Gosling hooked up with 1 "real woman" like Eva Mendes, he's considered "straight or masculine.oh no better yet manly" ???
                  Yeah the sarcasm of the OP does make perfect sense. I just don't see any talent in Ryan. At least Van Damme had to pay some dues to become a "global name".
                  BTW when I saw Gosling's name in that gangster movie, I wanted to tap out. I knew the world was really going down the drain.

                    Right. Rumor has it both Gosling and DiCaprio have called JCVD looking for advice on the finer points of acting but JCVD isn't returning those calls.

                      And he would deliver a much worse performance than Van Damme. Because let's face it as much as the ladies love Ryan Gosling he couldn't deliver a decent performance with a gun held to his head. Even Keanu Reeves is a better actor than Ryan Gosling. I truly hate Ryan Gosling. A man with two facial expressions. Smiling and looking like a moron. Looking serious and looking like a moron. And I hate his stupid beard.

                          This is really one of his best movies, it had a decent budget and was well shot great music good pacing and solid action. It deserves a much higher score, I give it 7/10!

                            This has to be one of the most nonsensical stupid post I've ever seen. What the hell does Ryan Gosling have to do with this movies IMDB rating?
                            People had no clue who Ryan Gosling was when this movie came out. Unless you can prove that people who watch Ryan Gosling films today suddenly have the feeling to come here and vote down a JCVD movie that came out in 1993. Then I'll agree.
                            If you want to blame someone. Go blame Harrison Ford since he was the most popular male actor around this time.
                            My feeling is the OP must have one massive hard on for Ryan Gosling. Along with the rest of the idiots who agree with him.
