Refn's surreal cinematic spell is amazing
There is an unreasonable amount of expectation surrounding 2013's Only God Forgives, as it's the second collaboration of director Nicolas Winding Refn and star Ryan Gosling after 2011's Drive. Fans of Drive expecting something similar will be disappointed - you see, Drive was in fact more of a gun-for-hire project for Refn, who was called upon to put his di... read more

Apparently, it seemed that they went for some rather mystical vibe but it seriously backfired.
