Great Picture/ Great Ending

Rating: 6/10 (26 October 2006)

Clint Eastwood sure turned out a great picture with outstanding acting by the entire cast. However, Sean Penn,(Jimmy Markum) put his heart and soul deep into his character and over powered the entire picture from beginning to the very end. Kevin Bacon,(Sean Devine), played a very calm and wise detective who grew up in the Boston city area and knew most of the people, especially a young boy who was taken for an unfortunate ride in a car. Laurence Fishburne, (Sgt. Whitey Powers) was a partner with Sean Devine and they both had some real problems to solve involving a young girl and plenty of suspects. Simply loved the way this picture ended, and I applaud Clint Eastwood for great dramatic art work on the silver screen.
