Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaRyan Gosling has a fear of heights, but still did the 150-foot fall at the beginning of the movie.
- GoofsThe final stunt shows the main character falling out of a helicopter holding a ruggedized digital storage device used in digital movie production. While he is falling through the air you can see that he is not holding anything. When he lands on the air cushion he is holding the storage device again.
- Quotes
[from trailer]
Colt Seavers: [preparing his dog, sitting next to him in a truck, for a jump] I'll buy you a drink after this is over! Engage your core!
[cut to Colt icing his fist in a frozen margarita with the dog sitting next to him lapping up a drink in a beer glass]

Featured review
4/10 Frustratingly Underdeveloped
I'd love to get behind this as a thrilling stunt showcase and worthy campaign for stunt-performance film-awards recognition, all tied together with a witty and self-aware central rom-com performance from two top quality actors with top on-screen chemistry, I did love the trailer, I did find the concept appealing. However for a project like this to work satisfactorily, regardless of the talent involved, it must be written well, it must be directed well. This is written badly and it doesn't hold together, and the direction is poor, it's a stupid story that doesn't work.
That accepted I enjoyed many elements, the stunts, some of the jokes, the sometimes ridiculous neon hair-shimmering slow-motion cinematography, the ultimate man-cave sequence, Ryan's jackets, Emily's catsuit-belt-combo (with invisible holster), the on-set movie-making exposition-demonstration-magic similar to HBO's Irma Vep...the behind-the-scenes stunt-reel over the end credits...until that last bit.
Look, I'm glad everyone is enjoying themselves, I just think it is also possible to make a good story out of a fun concept, so we can all enjoy it, and somehow that's not what happened here.
