Review of True Crime (1999) by Travis R — 12 Aug 2010
Mediocre film, not the best I've seen from Clint Eastwood. Although I love to see Clint, I thought he was a little too old for the role, as he was almost 70 years old at the time the movie was released, his playboy shenanigans are a little creepy.
A negligent father and husband, a former alcoholic, and a womanizer...there isn't too much to like about his character, other than his eye for detail. In the end, you'd think he would seek redemption for his own convictions, but I guess that's left ambiguous.
The movie starts a little slow, but starts picking up pace, the ending is climatic, but then kind of a let down. The performances were pretty good throughout, the story a bit formulaic but entertaining enough.
Worth a look.
