a very intense movie

Rating: 9/10 (29 August 2009)

Eastwood has proved himself once more to be a great director and still one of the best actors. The movie is about an old man who has an angry perspective to life. After he looses his wife, he starts to care about other people that he always hated. It is a very intense movie with very sad and silent moments. The story is well written and the character development is pretty good. Although the movie is around two hours, the time is used very wisely. The only thing I may criticize about the movie is the acting beside Eastwood. I didn't find the performance of Bee Vang so good. On the other hand, as a whole, the movie is certainly worth watching.
