Enjoyable But Not Great

Rating: 7/10 (29 April 2017)

Rounding out my look back at Clint Eastwood's acting filmography, I come to his last performance to date, 2012's The Trouble With The Curve.
Plot In A Paragraph: A daughter (Amy Adams) tries to remedy her dysfunctional relationship with her ailing father (Clint Eastwood) a decorated baseball scout by helping him in a recruiting trip which could be his last.
Trouble With The Curve is not a great baseball movie, it's not a great sports movie either, but it is an enjoyable, better than average movie. Part of me wishes Clint hadn't made this, and he retired on Gran Torino. I was so uninterested in it, I didn't even watch it until last year, when I bought it for 50p in a second hand shop.
Clint gives his usual solid performance, and Amy Adams is good too. Justin Timberlake puts in a decent performance too,, and Joe Messingill is very annoying, I really disliked his character!!
Trouble With The Curve only grossed $35 million at the domestic Box Office to end the year as the 89th highest grossing movie of 2012.
