here what good about the slaughter rule represent ryan gosling and clea duvall and and david morse all give great performance . gosling be and a always and pretty darn outstanding . the locale be often breathtaking . here what bad about the slaughter rule represent everything else . the script be horribly muddle . and while i can certainly appreciate a non feel good movie and this movie be just boring . great performance can not make up for a movie with a stupid premise and a script that be fill with throw away line that often do not even make it sense . just get through the first hour become a chore . i stick with it because of gosling and but eventually i do myself a favor and change the channel . spoiler on here relay the end to me . i do not miss much . do yourself a favor if you want a good gosling flick and check out the believer . my score represent negative .
