Review of Cry Macho (2021) by Chrisoz — 20 Oct 2022

Doesn't start or finish anywhere, I don't have any empathy with any character and you could sail a fleet of ocean-liners through all the holes in the script. Is the test of a good Director that they are able to discern that they themselves are unsuited for a lead role? What was going through Clint's mind when he was shooting the widow trying to get him (a 91 year old) into bed? I think we should pass around the hat to have all copies of this destroyed to preserve the dignity of Clint's lifetime body of work.

I'm a big fan of Clint but this is a movie too far. He is finally too old to play anyone and needs to stick to directing if he still can. A fabulous career deserves a better-ending than this. He's kind of doing a Joe Biden but I don't think a teleprompter would have helped in this case.
