You guys know that Glen Powell movie called Twisters? Well this is basically like a prequel where you find out why the Tornado is so mad. This movie has everything: Twisters (as advertised), ROMANCE, flying cows (or maybe just t

Bonus: Signs (2002)

WE'RE BACK. Sort of..... Jace was out of town so Ryan and Denali decided to "swing away" into a review of SIGNS (2002). We believe this decision will bring peace and unity to 2/3rds of the GBGBs brand as this movie brings aliens for Ryan and M Night Shyamalan for Denali. This was the movie that brought crop circles back into the monoculture while scarring an entire generation of ch

Everyone was begging and pleading us to do it, and we finally decided to listen to the legions of fans and do it. We reviewed The Place Beyond the Pines, the 2012 crime epic told in 3 parts for two and a half hours. Everyone has undoubtedly seen this movie so no need for a synopsis, but just in case, Ryan Gosling plays a tatted-up badboy dirt bike jumper who robs banks. Then Bradle

The GBGBs are back with PEAK GOSLING in Crazy, Stupid, Love (2011). Now some might argue that his character in this movie is not peak Gosling, but there is no doubt that this era marks the dawn of RG's great reign over our screens. Starting with Drive, our friend stars in 3 films in a single year, then goes onto star in a major film every year afterwards. But how does the Gos-man

The GBGBs are back with our review of GANGSTER SQUAD (2013). What, you don't remember this movie? C'mon it has Gosling, Emma Stone, Sean Penn, Thanos, The Falcon, Crossbones, Ant-Man's funny friend Luis.... Really?? Well it's about a ragtag team of mavericks who are trying to take down a mob boss in 1940s Los Angeles! It was also critically panned and was a box office flop. Not all
