My Comment:
Wow, what a drama! I can't say I'm in love with this drama because this movie was deeply in grieve and definitely no fun at all. But I must say this one was really good, because I could feel the tension and became empathic to the couple. Ryan Gosling and Michelle Williams did pretty good job on their performance. Until now, I still can't conclude the ending of this movie, just making a wild guess to it. I notice that Ryan is a good singer, some of the songs actually was written and performed by him. Overall, it was good but no fun.

My Comment:
Wow! I was really surprised! The outcome of this movie was beyond my imagination, it was unpredictable. This movie's back-sounds were sounded crazily, gave me sense of thrills and creeps. This movie was actually not a horror or thriller movie, but i was scared. The plot was really good, made me believe that the whole scene was the real one. I can say that this movie has great chances to win many awards.
