Only God Forgives

We feel like we’re somehow obligated to tell you that we’d see just about anything that Baby Goose was in. Drive is still one of our top movies of recent memory, and the soundtrack is as good now as it was when it came out. Somehow we missed Only God Forgives in theaters, but we’re first on the list to correct that once the DVD / Blu-Ray gets released–if only to see how another collaboration between Ryan Gosling and director Nicolas Winding Refn pans out. Gosling is a drug-smuggler that runs a boxing ring in Bangkok as a front, who is compelled, by his mother of all people, to find and kill the person responsible for his brother’s death. That sounds like the plot to a pretty amazing movie to us.
