Com humor no estilo de Mystic River de Eastwood, misturado com A Cidade de Affleck. Mas mais lento, mais espalhado, mais atento aos personagens e mais estratificado no pensamento. Um filme poderoso sobre pessoas, ações e consequências, responsabilidade, culpa e perdão. O envolvimento do espetador na história aprofunda-se a cada dez minutos que passam. A música não convencional, quase hipnótica — os cânticos silenciosos que sublinham o último quarto do filme, no contexto duma colisão de relação clímax, dão-lhe uma profundidade fatídica que os filmes recentes de Terrence Malick apenas fingem ter com os seus cânticos. Eu estava ansioso por Gosling, mas Cooper brilha mais do que ele. Até agora é a sua melhor atuação, muito íntima. Surpreende-me que o produtor Sidney Kimmel não tenha feito mais lobby na Academia, porque este é um filme americano independente de proporções Leone.

I have with this movie the same problem I had with Cianfrance’s previous one, Blue Valentine. Once again, the director-screenwriter attempts to present a broad indie social drama, but he’s unable to convincingly deliver and defend any of the conflicts that make the basis of the plot. As a result, the whole thing feels like disingenuous and manipulative stuff that wants to look important, and that’s all there is to it. In the first act it still works somehow, thanks mainly to Gosling’s charisma. Things start to grind in the second act, and the last act is, well, almost ridiculous. I’m very disappointed, I was really looking forward to it, but it seems that with Derek we don’t see eye-to-eye. 5/10

An Iñárritu-esque movie in the form of a Kinder Surprise; it also offers three (un)similar things in one package. Tremendously powerful in many aspects; from the details like "wearing shabby t-shirts inside out" to building a dense atmosphere. What spoils the enthusiasm somewhat is the third act, which is not bad in itself, but still crouches deep in the shadow of the opening two acts. It is schematic, predictable, and somewhat didactic. Which, since it is meant to close the circle, is a little unfortunate. Quite a little bit.

With such a duo in the lead roles, it couldn't have turned out any other way. Bradley Cooper steals every scene with his brilliant performance without hesitation, and Ryan Gosling only needs one look for the motorcycles in the film to be different than before. These pine trees at first seem like a proper probe into souls on opposite sides of the barricade, like an excellent dramatic arc that I will be talking about for some time. But behind that stone in the stomach that dragged me down for over two hours, there is simply something more. And when the viewer lets a few pivotal moments pass before their eyes and connects them back into a single whole, it will shake you up at least one more time.

One of those rare American epics with big Hollywood stars that we don't see much anymore — maybe one or two a year, if we're lucky. It feels like writers these days aren't tackling stories that span decades and generations as often, probably because crafting a family saga full of tragic twists isn't for the faint of heart. But I really enjoyed this one. The only downside is that it essentially splits into two different stories. Ryan Gosling shines in the first half, and just when you’re hooked on his character, the focus shifts to Dane DeHaan, who takes over the screen. It might feel a bit uneven and could frustrate some viewers, but when you step back and look at the film as a whole, it's a really intriguing piece of work.
