I was sitting there the other night, trying to imagine a bad Clint Eastwood movie, and I don’t there is such a thing. Generally, if he directs...it’s worth watching.

Heartbreak Ridge. I recommended to my wife that we watch it just a couple of weekends ago. I’d seen it a long time ago (probably in the theater in the 80’s when it was released) but she had never seen it. We both like Eastwood’s movies so it was an easy choice.

I hate to be argumentative on this since I really do like Eastwood’s work, but, this one didn’t age well. I loved Clint’s character and he has some priceless phrases and one-liners in there but the movie was a bit of a mess. It seemed to try and ride the line between a John Hughes comedy and a war movie. It didn’t work well for me. Just my opinion of course.

I definitely do plan on seeing this new movie in the theater.
