Good film, great lead, poor support.

Rating: 6/10 (7 April 2015)

Having watched this film for a second time, (To make sure I didn't miss something), I am slightly confused by the rating in IMDb's top 250. This is a good film, with a fine script and Eastwood is excellent in the role of the cantankerous old racist. What lets this film down is the supporting cast of 'unknowns'. To say some of the acting from them was not at its best, well that would be an understatement. Bee Vang is trying to act on a par with Eastwood and fails, he instead comes across as wooden. The script though is excellent and says all you need to say about modern society.
I feel that this film could have been an all time classic if better actors had been in the support roles.
