This 19th addition to the catalog of Clint-Eastwood-directed features starts out the gate with a wallop of an inciting incident, furthers itself with a nowhere-near-as-effective, yet still understandable first act turning point, plods along throughout its second act, and finally fizzles out during a woefully anti-climactic finish.

Indeed, "Absolute Power" may boast the impressive likes of Eastwood in the director's chair and the eminently great William Goldman behind the typewriter, but what comes of all that is just a fairly pedestrian thriller with a couple cool moments to it.
