By John Venable (339) for Supercala.com (431) on 16 Oct 2003

Review of Mystic River (2003)

By Sean P. Means (2,056) for Salt Lake Tribune (1,927) on 16 Oct 2003

Review of Mystic River (2003)

Review of Mystic River (2003)

By James Sanford (927) for Kalamazoo Gazette (860) on 15 Oct 2003

A deeply atmospheric murder mystery in which we wonder less about who committed the crime and more about who will ultimately pay for it…

Review of Mystic River (2003)

By Shirley Klass (48) for Fantastica Daily (363) on 15 Oct 2003

Eastwood's maturity is reflected in the story that doesn't back away from hard subjects and can admit that pain and remorse can mold a man's life…

Eastwood has handed Penn the role of a lifetime, and the actor scorches the screen with his anguish and angry vengefulness…

Review of Mystic River (2003)

By Phil Villarreal (1,289) for Arizona Daily Star (983) on 15 Oct 2003

A measured, leisurely paced but moving Shakespearean tragedy…

Review of Mystic River (2003)

By Audrey Rock-Richardson (174) for Utah Weekly (1) on 15 Oct 2003

A masterfully melancholy work with an Oscar worthy screenplay…

Review of Mystic River (2003)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 15 Oct 2003

Complicated, enigmatic and haunting...easily Eastwood's best film since 'Unforgiven,' and one of the most compelling pictures of the year…

Review of Mystic River (2003)

By Eleanor Ringel Cater (614) for Atlanta Journal-Constitution (910) on 15 Oct 2003

Eastwood has handed Penn the role of a lifetime, and the actor scorches the screen with his anguish and angry vengefulness…

Review of Mystic River (2003)

By Mark Halverson (98) for Sacramento News & Review (1,702) on 15 Oct 2003

[Eastwood] masterfully gives the story and characters their proper amount of breathing room and translates the script into fluid, fertile visual…

Review of Mystic River (2003)

By Robert Denerstein (1,148) for Denver Rocky Mountain News (608) on 14 Oct 2003

Review of Mystic River (2003)

By Rob Blackwelder (857) for SPLICEDWire (872) on 13 Oct 2003

[Eastwood] isn't afraid to take his time telling a story, letting it breathe like a good wine and thereby making it feel more like life than a movie…
