we saw this last night and enjoyed it. Far from a great movie however Clint is like the Duracell bunny. At age 88 he just keeps on going

In fact the premise of this story reminds me of the recent movie with Robert Redford, The Old Man and the Gun

Only a cool review of 59% on MRQE.com but we enjoyed it. The ending was predictable

Lot of good but wasted talent in the movie such as Bradley Cooper as a DEA agent and Lawrence Fishburne as his boss.Diane Wiest plays his ex wife while his real daughter Allison plays his daughter in the movie.

Not great but we enjoyed it. I grew up watching Clint Eastwood on Rawhide on TV and then starring in his spaghetti westerns and then his Dirty Harry roles

I think I said what you did only I was more polite

I saw it on Friday night, and I thought it was only OK. It definitely was very predictable.

Tinka asked me about the movie and I answered: “45% of the movie was an old man driving an old pick-up truck, and another 45% of the movie was an old man driving a new pick-up truck.”

Clint's last few movies have slowed a few paces as has he.

As I said earlier this film reminded me of the Old Man and the Gun
