He didn't have his bike, he didn't have his sunglasses, and he didn't case the bank before robbing it. He got so addicted to the rush that he broke his own rules.

[@dickstryker]

That shit is real tho. How most career criminals go down. They get sloppy or their luck runs out or both. I gotta see this film. Only caught a couple of clips so far but the performances and story feel authentic AF. No glamour, no quirky super villains. Just normal people with normal dreams pushed to the extreme by this meat grinder of a world. Heavy

[@PatrickPierceBateman]

@@dickstryker Well worth watching. It's an underrated film.

[@christopherseat9871]

Yeah.....this is what killed my step dad in prison. RIP.

[@skillsmachine9164]

Having the meltdown with his family just before lead to the laziness too though I reckon. Like losing his shit and hitting the stepdad. Otherwise he would have been more clear headed

[@cherryboppp]

Yea and the bike he bought was a shitheap. Nothing compared to the one he had that the other guy broke down.

[@vanessadebrino7231]

His high pitch voice makes this scene authentic. Anybody involved in this type of crime would have the very same tone 😆. Heart rate super jacked and having a tough time forming coherent sentences 😆. One of RG best performances

[@shakedown4716]

He was jacked. Jacked to the tits.

[@S1N1CAL]

He even throws up in the back of the truck after doing it the first time because of the all the adrenaline, great touch

[@aleksisuuronen5969]

Forgetting the sunglasses making him even more anxiety ridden 😅 This and The Town's bank robbery scenes are according to an actual robber very close to a real one

I remember seeing this in theaters because i haven't missed a Ryan Movie and i couldn't believe he did this, Drive and Blue Valentine so close together and how amazing they all were. Especially since Ryan is so ridiculously funny. Hes an underrated actor. I hated that he only got to be in act one. But look at Cooper!! He was like a baby in this movie!!

[@alpastor666]

how is he 'underrated'? his films have grossed $2B and he has two academy award noms.

[@bookeblade]

Very underrated movie.

[@coreycasciano3255]

Masterpiece of a film, this and Drive are two of my favorite Ryan Gosling movies, Drive is a masterpiece too

[@cXspXr]

he shriek like screams make me giggle so much. such a good movie tho and ryan is amazing

[@Bernacide]

His shriek like screams are amusing, but also very realistic. I could feel the panic! Props to Gosling!

[@WLyons9856]

This is truly a masterpiece of a movie

[@cgh7337]

The immediate police response time to that bank robbery had to set some kind of record.

[@bobbywhite1645]

I'd imagine the alarm goes off almost immediately and once in a blue moon a cop is pretty close to the bank

[@Sr89hot]

If the woman behind the counter threw the bag over the first time he would have been gone.

[@BackwoodsFilms]

I'm not sayin' they weren't there, I'm sayin' they WERE there, but they didn't make their presence known until Mr. Blonde started shooting up the place...

[@avyst1097]

I think given the fact he robbed multiple banks within a short space of time gave them reason to be on high alert and have troopers near other banks. That was my assumption, especially considering his partner refuses to do another with him cos its too hot and too much attention. He broke his own rules.

[@Bernacide]

Should've turned around when he realized he didn't have the glasses! Bad omen, so to speak.

[@erickbuckner4485]

He should’ve gone back to get his glasses

[@buggzo]

I think him showing up at all gave himself away because cameras would have caught him and they were still investigating previous robberies that used the same tactics, so they would have tracked him down eventually. I think he knew that and wanted to atleast have something to take away if he already exposed himself.

[@KurtwillhavhisrevengeonSeattle]

Yes. Seeing his son find them later in the movie, was an incredibly moving scene.

[@plus_sign]

this is like the total opposite of Drive where he's always in control & able to lose the cops, etc.* they're on him the entire way

[@KurtwillhavhisrevengeonSeattle]

I remember thinking that he was going to have one of those dye packs explode on him, when I watched this for the first time. This movie is the type of movie that makes me wish I could watch it for the first time, all over again. Amazing.

[@aleksisuuronen5969]

Went to see this in cinema. This whole sequence was super gripping when seeing it the first time. Everything going wrong, forgetting the sunglasses, cannot throw the bag, motorcycle almost doesn't start, cops are there immidiatelly, get's a flat tire from having to free-solo the route, being shot in the head. Yeah didn't go as smoothly as the first one where he rides into the van.

Their response time would be about 27x longer.... Not even exaggerating. The realist know what I'm talkin about.

[@Johno1992]

That depends on the country take Scotland for example police response to armed robberies is anywhere between 10 mins to half an hour but if you call someone the wrong gender your lynched on the spot and sent to do a 10 stretch for insulting someones feelings a bookies in my town got robbed at gunpoint and it took an hour just for officers to respond 😂

Seriously. Is there not ONE person in Hollywood who understands what motorcycles actually SOUND LIKE??!?!? He starts a four stroke, rides off on it, then as soon as the cops arrive, he's suddenly riding a two stroke!. Such STUPID simple to catch mistakes!!! Nothing ruins a scene for me like this kind of stupidity. Tires squealing on wet grass kinda dumb.

[@linfia]

There’s nothing to prequel about, he was a normal biker until he found out he has a son.

[@SamFisher007]

Fun Fact: The crash into the barricade was not scripted. The stuntman who rode the bike during the whole chase scene couldn't slow down in time and hit it and they kept it in the film.

[@FrostFire1987]

the first third was great, the last third was just annoying, the kids just pissed me off

[@jinkazama9999]

when did he get the flat tire ???

[@jackl7778]

maybe the cemetery or he always had it and didnt notice since he got sloppy

[@buggzo]

My guess is that he didn't do any maintenance or mechanical checks on the bike when he bought it and it just happened. The other potential is that his mentor sabotaged the tire so that he would get caught by himself. You can put a hole in a tire in a way that it will slowly leak so you won't notice it right away.

[@jackl7778]

he was just thrown off by realizing he forgot to bring his glasses, everything went downhill from there, also he forgot he had the killswitch on which is why he couldnt start his bike@@buggzo
