Ryan Gosling has made himself one of the most beloved and acclaimed actors of our time by proving the range of his talents in a wide range of projects. He’ll go from playing the hunky romantic interest in a typical Hollywood rom-com to caving-in skulls with a hammer with a scorpion on his jacket and a brooding intensity in his eyes in a dark, ultraviolent, small-scale indie thriller.
He’ll go from playing a jazz pianist in a Golden Age-inspired musical to tracking down Rick Deckard in a belated big-budget sequel to Blade Runner. So, here are Ryan Gosling’s 10 Best Movies, According To Rotten Tomatoes.
10 The Believer (83%)
Loosely inspired by the true story of Dan Burros, The Believer stars Ryan Gosling as a Jewish man who becomes a neo-Nazi. The real Burros took his own life after being outed as Jewish by a New York Times reporter, and the movie is as bleak as its true-to-life inspiration would suggest.
This was one of Ryan Gosling’s earliest leading roles in a movie, and as far as the critics were concerned, his performance was the striking revelation that made The Believer a must-see. The film’s subject matter is obviously pretty dicey and controversial, but it’s handled with grace by director Henry Bean.
9 The Ides of March (84%)
George Clooney directed this political drama as a sort of modern-day Greek tragedy. Clooney also starred in the movie as a Governor who decided to run for President as a Democratic candidate, alongside Ryan Gosling as his junior campaign manager.
The movie’s political message isn’t particularly insightful or groundbreaking, but Clooney and Gosling’s impeccable acting more than makes up for it. The Ides of March was far from a box office bomb, but it didn’t make a huge commercial splash due to poor marketing. It was, however, selected by the National Board of Review as one of the best movies of the year.
8 TIE: Blade Runner 2049 (87%)
Denis Villeneuve had his work cut out for him when he was tasked with directing a sequel to Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner. Scott’s 1982 neo-noir is considered to be one of the greatest films ever made, and after 35 years of anticipation, there seemed to be no way that Blade Runner 2049 could live up to the audience’s expectations.
And then, against all odds, Villeneuve pulled it off. He continued the story of the original, bringing back Harrison Ford as Rick Deckard, and also told a new story, starring Ryan Gosling as LAPD Officer K, taking us to previously unseen areas of this future world, like the wasteland that was once Las Vegas.
7 TIE: First Man (87%)
Ryan Gosling reteamed with La La Land director Damien Chazelle last year for this biopic of Neil Armstrong, the first man who ever walked on the Moon, which may have bombed at the box office, but was a hit with critics.
Since film stock was used to shoot the movie, the production design not only accurately recreates the feel of the 1960s; the movie itself looks like it’s from that era. As a biopic, it’s pretty generic and straightforward, but the film is redeemed by the breathtaking Moon landing sequence, which might be the most immersive space-bound scene ever shot.
6 TIE: Blue Valentine (87%)
Imagine the dark inversion of a Hollywood love story and you’re somewhere in the ballpark of the harrowing tragedy that is Blue Valentine, which stars Ryan Gosling and Michelle Williams, both bringing their A-game. The movie is told across two different timelines – one depicting a married couple’s early courtship and the other depicting the breakdown of their marriage.
Director Derek Cianfrance struggled to secure financing for the film for years (with Gosling and Williams signing on almost a decade before it actually went into production) and he had to forgo his entire fee to make up the budget, but it all worked out in the end.
5 The Big Short (88%)
Adam McKay has established himself as an incisive political filmmaker in the past couple of years. After making his name with absurdist comedies like Anchorman and Talladega Nights, McKay took a detour into more dramatic territory with The Big Short, the story of the 2008 mortgage crisis and how greedy, negligent bankers let it happen.
McKay’s strength as a director is taking dry material, like banking or stocks or Wall Street (or, in his latest film Vice, the Vice Presidency), and making it accessible and interesting through the use of his signature humor. McKay’s script for The Big Short (co-written with Charles Randolph) won him an Oscar.
4 Half Nelson (90%)
This independent drama about a teacher who gets involved in one of his students’ lives when it becomes apparent that the student’s own parents have been neglecting him made Ryan Gosling a star overnight. It wasn’t a box office smash and it didn’t sweep the awards shelf on Oscar night, but it did tell Hollywood that this Ryan Gosling guy had that special something that makes someone a movie star.
The film came from Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck, the duo that would eventually go on to give us Captain Marvel, the movie that angered misogynistic fanboys everywhere and still managed to gross $1 billion.
3 La La Land (91%)
La La Land, Damien Chazelle’s throwback to the classic musicals from the Golden Age of Hollywood (Lord knows the Academy loves a movie about Hollywood), famously received the Academy Award for Best Picture when it turned out that the envelopes got mixed up and Moonlight had actually won. It was pretty embarrassing.
And while Moonlight is clearly the finer film (it doesn’t rely on homages to tell its story, it focuses on more important social issues, and it has a more unconventional, yet exciting structure), La La Land is great, too. Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone are a well-matched on-screen pair, and carry this love story from strength to strength.
2 Drive (92%)
One of Hollywood’s most glaring recent mistakes was marketing Nicolas Winding Refn’s arthouse thriller Drive as the new Fast & Furious. By using the one or two shots of cars going fast in the trailers for Drive, the producers misled viewers into thinking they were in for, well, pretty much what would eventually get made as Baby Driver.
Drive doesn’t exist purely to entertain like a Fast & Furious movie. It’s more artistic than that, presenting a character study of a deeply flawed individual who learns to care about other people through his neighbor, who is stuck in an abusive relationship, and her young child. Ryan Gosling is mesmerizing in the lead role of the Driver, a sort of Travis Bickle for a new generation.
1 The Nice Guys (93%)
It’s a crying shame that Shane Black’s The Nice Guys wasn’t a bigger hit. It could’ve been the first installment in a new generation’s Lethal Weapon franchise. Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe were perfectly matched as a pair of private eyes who fall into the same case together and have to learn to get along. Set in the ‘70s, the movie was a surreal odyssey with dream sequences and porn parties.
As well as being an engaging crime movie with a zany sort of neo-noir tinge, The Nice Guys was also one of the most hilarious film comedies in recent memory. Unfortunately, in the summer of 2016, it was buried under Captain America: Civil War and Me Before You, so we’ll be forever deprived of a sequel.
