Let’s hear it for the MVPs of the film industry: the stunt team (AKA the fall guys). Ryan Gosling’s “The Fall Guy” is a fun, campy take on the action comedy genre as Gosling’s character Colt Seavers goes from a nearly career-ending stunt injury to finding himself in the middle of a real-life conspiracy where his hefty stunt training comes in handy.
Along for the ride are Emily Blunt as Gosling’s love interest Jody Moreno, Winston Duke as fellow stunt guy Dressler and Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Tom Ryder, the egotistical actor Colt doubles for. The movie showcases the perfect combo of Gosling’s talent for drama and action with the satirical twists he does best. And if you thought stunt guys were cool, wait until you see the stunt dog. Here are five movies like "The Fall Guy" to watch next — at least until "The Fall Guy" arrives on streaming.
