Skip it—this is a bloated, self-serious crime drama that bites off more than it can chew with its multi-timeline structure and tries way too hard to be profound. Unless you're a die-hard Ryan Gosling completist, you'll find yourself checking your phone before the halfway mark.

A motorcycle stunt rider considers committing a crime in order to provide for his wife and child, an act that puts him on a collision course with a cop-turned-politician.
