The official synopsis reads:

'A battered and past-his-prime stuntman finds himself working on a movie set with the star for whom he doubled long ago and who replaced him. The star then goes missing.'

The Fall Guy stars Gosling, Blunt, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Hannah Waddingham, Teresa Palmer, Stephanie Hsu and Winston Duke.

It premiered at SXSW recently, and those in attendance loved it, with particular praise being sent to Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt for their on-screen chemistry, as well as the immaculate stunt work.

The Fall Guy reviews

"A blast of fun at the movies worthy of the biggest tub of popcorn you can find. It’s two hours of movie stars being absolute charm machines, and sometimes that’s all you really need." - Matthew Jackson of AV Club.

"The Fall Guy feels indistinguishable from the dozens of other action films. And then Gosling and Blunt start flirting and fighting and verbally feinting with each other, and you feel like you’re floating an inch above your seat." - David Fear of Rolling Stone.

"This is popcorn filmmaking at its most cheerful and enthusiastic, driven by cheeky needle drops, rousing action, and movie stars." - Katie Rife of IndieWire.

"Movies about making movies need to have movie stars to work, and Gosling and Blunt are happy to oblige, making The Fall Guy a cracking example of what Hollywood does best." - Dan Bayer of Next Best Picture.

"I truly had a massive grin on my face from start to finish watching The Fall Guy. It’s an extremely well-crafted action movie that’s absolutely buzzing with energy and charm for all 125 minutes of its running time." - Perri Nemiroff of Collider.

"Two hours of zingers with impeccable timing, two bona fide movie stars with palpable chemistry, several enjoyably meta send-ups of the business and, of course, plenty of crazy stunts." - Adrian Horton of The Guardian.

"Gosling and Blunt are enchanting together, and David Leitch raises the volume and intensity with every stunt and action set-piece. It’s also exactly the type of bombastic fun that demands to be seen on the biggest screen possible." - Aaron Peterson of The Hollywood Outsider.

A few less kind reviews:

"Very loosely based on the 1980s series, the film plays out over the course of nearly two hours without any fun, getting buried under empty gag after empty gag as it feels more like we ourselves are experiencing repeated head trauma." - Chase Hutchinson of The Wrap.

"This makes it feel like we are seeing a stuntman highlight reel rather than an actual movie." - Rachel Wagner of rachelsreviews.net.
