Reaction: Excellent numbers for a smart, mature superhero film. Don't be surprised if you see more movies featuring the adventures of The Question, seeing as the lack of superpowers keeps the budget relatively modest.
"Nicholas Winding Refn's The Question is like the little brother of Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight series, taking the characters and their world seriously with serious stakes and ample dramatic tension." - Lisa Winger, Newsday
"Ryan Gosling has finally found the big-budget tentpole franchise that deserves and makes proper use of his talents. His disturbed screen presence perfectly adapts to this intriguing character. He's joined by an equally talented cast that inhabit Refn's dark and grimy world." - James Tubbs Jr., Vice Magazine
"Nicholas Winding Refn isn't the most obvious choice for a superhero film, but his particular talents work wonders here, creating a whole world full of neon lights and corruption and bloody noses. The Question stands alone as both a realistic action film and as a dream-like drama." - Mark Rawls, Seattle Times
