Sean Penn's greatest performance

Rating: 10/10 (1 June 2014)

Clint Eastwood's Mystic River is a movie of sadness and loss of a daughter that reunites a group of old friends again. The movie stars Sean Penn as that man who loses his daughter and goes through that midlife crisis with the law and to trying to find the man who murdered his daughter. The movie also has a great supporting cast such as Marcia Gay Harden, Tim Robbins, Laura Linney, Laurence Fishburne, and Kevin Bacon. Director Clint Eastwood has crafted the best movie about a midlife crisis since Robert Benton's 1979 film Kramer vs. Kramer. Especially featuring a great script by Brian Helgeland, and great photography by Tom Stern. This movie truly touched me in all the correct emotional and I also felt bad for Sean Penn's character in the film as we all should because of what he went through emotionally but it is still a great movie.
A+
