I like Christina Hendricks, she was classic as 'Saffron' in "Firefly" (my 2nd favorite TV show) and she is an altogether gorgeous and talented actress. I enjoyed Matt Smith as the Doctor but I'm not under the impression that he's the best actor frankly.

I think you're right in Gosling not making this movie his own and emulating Nicolas Winding Refn's style. The cast line up sounds great though.
