Lost River | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

There's more than a nugget of intrigue to this era-less, nihilism-inflected tale, but Gosling is too concerned with aesthetic and tone to deliver much of a narrative.

For Gosling it seems to be train set, a paint box and a whole crate of star studded action figures to play with and he throws them at the screen willy-nilly, in a way which is at least exuberant and entertaining.

Overall, Lost River isn't worth its rental fee, unless you absolutely must see Gosling's effort for yourself. Otherwise, take my word for it-wait until Ryan Gosling makes another movie.

Lost River is little more than "cool shots, bro."

While 'Lost River' might not be a model of narrative efficiency, it's got more striking moments and memorable images than a season of studio product.
