Powerful performances in graphic story. Only 16+.

Sean Penn is so frighteningly good in this movie that he outdoes even the best of his earlier work.

Contains so many layers that you'll want to see it more than once. It's one for the memory books.

American drama doesn't get any more meaty and muscular than this.
April 15, 2016
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.
June 24, 2006
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.

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

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.
October 17, 2003
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.
August 25, 2008
The performances are uniformly superb.

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.
