However, yesterday we opened up Netflix and pressed the **play** button on a movie that kept stirring my interest since it was first released, so here we go with a review for one of the cinephile stars of this period - **The Gray Man.** ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/gabrielatravels/23zGca1qvEjcpyLSoWii8gB2SnFUuMMqwYNMgMhcdQjsKEQXjvJr3kSpSFQTS3aEWANCk.png) *[Source](https://www.complex.com/pop-culture/ana-de-armas-chris-evans-the-gray-man-interview)* ## Introduction It might sound subjective, but for me, when I see **Ryan Gosling** in a movie, I am absolutely convinced that we are talking about a good movie just because it's one of the big actors that I'm sure won't accept a stupid role in a movie or something that he feels it won't get anywhere. However, when you see both him and **Chris Evans** in the same movie, then everything is taken to the next level and we can talk about a way larger category of watchers. Anyway, while I'm used to see Chris Evans in SF roles and especially these that involve superheroes, and Ryan Gostling in comedy or drama movies, **The Gray Man** came as a completely new challenge for both of the actors since we are talking about an American action thriller film directed by Anthony and Joe Russo that will take them anywhere from hunting to shooting others just for the sake of staying alive. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/gabrielatravels/EoEoZ6duwEXBnymDUB6iZ63JwGRD4FK6UZeP2xiAmse6ZbocbnUtjn8CvJPoWcEVCBQ.png) *[Source](https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2022/jul/22/the-gray-man-to-promising-young-woman-the-seven-best-films-to-watch-on-tv-this-week)* ## Description The action begins with **Ryan Gosling** playing **Six** who is in the prison and gets an offer that he can't refuse, namely to start working for CIA and get involved in all kind of missions to chase the *bad guys*. As interesting as it sounds, even from his first mission **Six** starts uncovering secrets and making all kinds of connections that will take him on a different path from the original one, turning him into a target when it triggers a global hunt by assassins set loose by his ex-colleague. I don't know how this sounds on your end but for me it seemed instantly as a mix between John Wick and Fast and Furious series because if you will watch this one you will notice it involves lots of cars getting exploded, getting into accidents, or simply being hunted. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/gabrielatravels/23xedu1oZbCjkR3doNm6eF2HjNdWAA7MvtS6gymN3g25ASMUiyZxoZr8LPoiUzo1K5MMW.png) *[Source](https://click.ro/primetime/la-ce-ne-mai-uitam-vara-asta-the-gray-man-cel-640833.html)* Anyway, considering that Netflix had some serious fails in terms of action movies, this time bringing Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans in the same film turned out really expensive, **The Gray Man** becoming quickly the most costly piece released so far by the big portal, exceeding over $200,000. Though, being a movie made by the Russo brothers who earned their popularity after creating the Avengers series which as much as I love superheroes, it's always hard to maintain my interest from the beginning till the end without pressing the pause button for a few times to do other things just because it's never that kind of action which keeps you on suspense and make you look forward to seeing what happens up next. Fortunately or not, a pretty similar situation is with **The Gray Man** where even though you won't see people use superpowers, we still remember professionals in martial arts, spying and even dancing through a rain of bullets without getting hurt too much. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/gabrielatravels/23vhwm5tk22ZCE5Rw7oPTgURMWtogPp3ZyQSYXwrNkf2chYsLA3Pqfm5VCJaSBQcckwPU.png) *[Source](https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/netflix-big-plans-gray-man-fans-might-disagree-rcna39667)* ## Opinions As I said **The Gray Man** doesn't come with that kind of action which keeps you curious of what happens next and hence why you won't see it running in too many movie theaters because it's more of a movie to watch at home with your friends, but it still counts pretty much to see some famous figures in terms of actors used for this piece which definitely add a bonus to the film. It's true that even though you earned your popularity as an actor it doesn't necessarily mean that you can play in any genre of movie but it's still nice to explore different paths in the world of cinema and see how far an actor can go. And last but not least, I think we can all agree that having subtle "powers" added to some of the actors could be appreciated even though sometimes seems like being a little bit too much. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/gabrielatravels/23wgDEa3sLLfLeVzJys7esJNNvEtk52hbiruAUPKvRDJGTttD1mkGb1oTntwYpwqu9qXn.png) *[Source](https://www.digitalspy.com/movies/a40652130/the-gray-man-ending-explained-netflix-old-man-mystery/)* ## Conclusions **The Gray Man** is some sort of movie created from the leftovers of other famous series like **John Wick** and **Fast & Furious** but which managed to control its action pretty well, still making it a pretty good movie to watch at home. Along with a bunch of money invested in the actors, you can notice that the creators did a great job with all the sound and video effects where they didn't hesitate to offer as much as it was needed for cool results. As many pros and cons this movie comes with, it's still worth being seen even if it's just for the sake of being up to date on the latest movie **Ryan Gostling** and **Chris Evans** were part of. https://youtu.be/BmllggGO4pM ## Have you seen "The Gray Man"?
