Review of Mystic River (2003) by Jack P — 11 Dec 2016
Completely twisted and utterly dark on all fore-fronts, Mystic River combines the talents of Oscar winners Sean Penn and Timothy Robbins and leads an all-star supporting cast that turns the plot of Mystic River into a praised modern day masterpiece.
Clint Eastwood adds to his directing legacy from Unforgiven to Million Dollar Baby and fosters up a new home for this thrilling blockbuster. The majority find it satisfyingly uncomfortable and the minority can't muster up the stomach to get through the 2+ hours of real-life Boston attitude.
With praise on both sides of the cinema spectrum, Mystic River indeed earns my vote as currently my favorite movie of all time. 5 stars.
