Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
renu-09957 This movie is so goddamn stupid and pointless. It scares me how bad it is, guys. In the first scene of the movie, Romina scores a bike ride with Luke. For no apparent reason. It's like she is leading him on and when he asks her if they can get a drink or something, she says no. WHYYYY. When Luke gets the crib, Kofi gets angry because it is his house. Wow, prince charming. You care more about your rundown house than a crib for an infant child who you call your son? Really smooth. And, when Romina coos "Baby." at Kofi after he is punched by Luke doesn't even add up. There is simply no chemistry between them. If the girl wants to have no ties with the father of their child, fine. But Luke was trying to do a really nice thing by getting presents for his child, there is no crime in that. And, a scene that depicts the opposite of that shows how talented the writers and directors are. I can't understand why Eva Mendes (the intelligent and beautiful actress that she is) would even choose to read a script in which she is merely a damsel in distress and where two men are just fighting over her and her baby. She never takes a stand. She keeps pushing someone away who clearly loves and admires her.
daphnexulu I sat back and watched The Place Beyond the Pines, having known nothing about it, and let it take me on a beautiful journey of love, pain and life. It's one of those rare films that completely stops you in your tracks. Rarely do you come across a film which goes above and beyond; the characters, the visuals, the narrative set way for a truly great piece of cinema. Completely and utterly touched.
amytelschow I love this movie for many reason. The acting is quite good by the main characters. It tells an all too familiar story of the cycle of abandonment and trauma and no role models as to healthy ways to climb out. I cry every time I watch not for any one scene, it varies. I know people just like these characters, but not everyone will. It has layers of thoughtful story lines and I am always amazed it did not get more attention.
kkoehler-02767 The movie is about a man named Luke who rides his motorcycle inside the globe of death, a carnival attraction. He runs into his old lover, Romina, who has secretly had Luke's child. In an attempt to support his new son and win his girl back, Luke quits his job at the carnival and robs some banks. He is successful until he tried one too many times, and was accidentally killed in the process. The story then shifts to the police officer that had Luke in pursuit, Avery Cross. Fifteen years pass, and the rest of the story unfolds. The film was produced so well and had a very grabbing plot line, and the actors were hot. This movie was so great!
