A captivating and harrowing performance by Sean Penn makes this a must watch

Rating: Null/10 (11 July 2018)

Mystic River directed by Clint Eastwood is a harrowing take on a murder in a small town. Featuring brave performances by all involved, especially Sean Penn, Mystic River is about morality, lies and greed. The film is a bit heavy and probably overlong but you will be pleased by the end of it. This is one of those films whose stature only grows with time.
