Was broco Billy a drama then
Not for nothing but you did not have a clue how it was going to end? Clearly from the get go it was not going to be Clint wins in gun battle with scumbags.
I liked it a lot. First movie I have been to in a long time that I could sit thru. Let’s see that Buttons movie was tortue, Australia, I liked. Most movies try to be so politically motivating that they are repulsive.
Excellent movie. Josie Whales meets William Muny in urban Detroit.
I’m not sure the reviewer actually watched the movie - almost sounds like he wrote this column based on the negative observations of others.
I though the ending was perfect.
Have not seen the movie. Unforgiven was OK but the last good Eastwood movie I remember was the last Dirty Harry. The one where he played the reporter out to save the poor criminal was right up there with Play Misty for Me.
The new film Definance was very good as well..tells a true story of the The Bielskis brothers "Four Jewish brothers in Nazi-occupied Eastern Europe escape into the Belarussian forests, where they join Russian resistance fighters and endeavor to build a village in order to protect themselves and about 1,000 Jewish non-combatants who join them." (movie is over 2 hours)Wonder why many of the Jews were sheep lead to slaughter, or became easy prey to the Nazis--they voiced they were academics-studied Music, Literature and one talked about his buddies in the socialist movement would not believe it if they saw him "learn" how to work with tools to build shelters. Says something about academics who would not survive without those like the ditch digger or the carpenter /tradesmen or "lower class" who were not as educated . The women became requested being equal in carrying weapons. They also learned, if your humanitarian heart says let the enemy go (ex.,milkman), then he will lead the enemy back another day to kill you and everyone around you. Many lessons to be learned in this film. Makes a statement! Very Good!
Both films address: "protect and teach the weak to survive so others may become inherently strong.
I know and have known men like Walt Kowalski. I found how the movie played out as believable. It was not entertaining in a Hollywood sense. In was not preachy in a Hollywood sense.
Hey, it was a Clint Eastwood movie - One of the few remaining conservative voices in that s**t hole place called Hollywood.
I did have to think after the ending why he was getting a fitted suit...I finally (duh!) put 2 and 2 together...

sorry about the double post, have to figure out how that happened...
Idiot.
$118 Million, and counting. And this from a late release, not pushed, and overlooked by the Oscar Committee, self financed “project”.
BTW, Mr. Eastwood owns the movie. Now, tell us again, who’s the loser?
