There is nothing romantic about the law of the streets, and its unforgiving nature has a finality that can't be undone. Eastwood has an understanding of what it takes to live with yourself, not so much a sympathy as an appreciation.

Powerful performances in graphic story. Only 16+.

Works as a straight-up detective story, and the acting is often breathtaking.

The performances are uniformly superb.

Solid, rarely showy performances, meticulously recreated detective work and moments of pure unadulterated grief accent this whodunit, a movie that will have those who haven't read the book fooled for much of its length.

Sean Penn is so frighteningly good in this movie that he outdoes even the best of his earlier work.
October 17, 2003
Contains so many layers that you'll want to see it more than once. It's one for the memory books.
October 24, 2003
Too depressing to fill audiences with delight, but it does seem to validate questionable attitudes, especially an indifference to the suffering of innocent people and a willingness to shoot first and ask questions later.

The entire cast did a phenomenal job, resisting the urge to overact too much, which is what you get for a film like this.
August 05, 2007
Good, occasionally powerful noir that's been overhyped.

It is in many ways Eastwood's tightest movie for some time, and certainly his darkest since Unforgiven; indeed, the ending offers as corrosive an assessment of the limits of American justice as anything in his career.

American drama doesn't get any more meaty and muscular than this.
