Absolutely loved it! Couldn't stop laughing! Two detectives who are down on their luck and are very far from being professionals but are still very much the good guys. Loved the whole Bro bond between both characters by the end. Ryan gosling had me in stitches! Gripping story and great cinematic Feeling. Loved the 70's style playback on the whole movie. Watch it! It's probably the best film I've seen.all year! Very smart and witty! The one's who didn't like it obviously have no sense of humour.

Russell Crowe is a d!ck in real life but he makes some entertaining movies. Ryan Gosling really held his own as a co-star and didn't fall into the background. Some parts of this movie were realistic for comedy effect. Other parts were unrealistic so the story didn't become too serious and tense. If you ever want to de-stress at the end of the week then this is a great movie to watch.

Very underrated and very funny and entertaining. Must watch! Ignore the hate reviews from people who clearly have no sense of humour. Also this movie is not so violent as these snowflakes claim. Some people clearly didn't watch the movie but still gave it a bad score
