Critic's Grade: A-



Clint was looking a little old and weathered but still had IT in this one. This crime thriller has Eastwood as a retired FBI Agent hunting a serial killer who keeps Clint alive so they could continue to play their cat and mouse game. It was throwback to the old Dirty Harry days where you knew who the killer was halfway through the movie but it was such a good story that you waited to see how Clint put it together. The script was a little choppy and some scenes could have used better editing but all in all it was a good film. Jeff Daniels (Speed, Dumb and Dumber) plays a cool boat bum who does nothing but drink beer and play his harmonica. I like his range in this one. Anjelica Houston plays Clint's doctor who continues to stress over his post operative heart condition. The beautiful Wanda De Jesus (Ghost of Mars, Flawless) plays the grieving sister of Clint's heart donor. Tina Lifford (Letters from a Killer, Mandela and de Klerk) plays Clint's old protege' who agrees to help him solve the crime. Paul Rodriguez (Rat Race, Ali) plays the typical local detective from LAPD who resents Clint as a bigshot glory hound. He provides ample comedy relief but his performance seems a little bit out of place. Still, it was nice to see such a diversified cast and everyone held their own. Four beers kiddies. Four beers for Clint reminding us how he used to do it. But then again,

that's just my opinion.
