Review of The Mule (2018) by Tvjerry — 18 Dec 2018
Director Clint Eastwood also stars as a kindly old man who haplessly ends up transporting drugs for a Mexican cartel. Be warned, this is a gentle drama and not a typical action-filled, guns-blazing drug flick.
Eastwood creates a sweet character with flaws: he's prioritized his job over his family, he's headstrong and he's gently-racist. There's lots of footage of him driving and singing, interacting fearlessly with his new bosses and facing his domestic faults with sometimes tiresome dramatic moments.
This will not be a big hit, but Eastwood's laid back performance is quietly charming and sometimes even amusing.
