“The Mule”

Anyone else Watch/like this latest Clint Eastwood offering?
Not too bad...good effort from an 88 year old guy! There always was a lot more to Eastwood than Rowdy, the Man with No Name or Dirty Harry.

 

[CJ Beat Hard]

I was a big fan of that movie.

 

[CarolinaHawkeye]

I loved it. Northern evidently hated it or something like that. So that would be two thumbs up.

LOL. You think those Clint Eastwood MAGA twitter accounts are real don’t you? That is classic. Seriously, thanks for the laugh.

I could care less.

Saw it this weekend on HBO......It was good, not great - I agreed w/ the Rotten Tomatoes audience score 66%

I don't think I've ever seen a movie that I didn't agree w/ the RT score...…..

 

[WARHAWK]

Similar movie, anyone watch Robert Redford's "The old man and the gun"?Similar type story but based off a true story. Not too bad.

Is this fake too?

 

[JupiterHawk]

Never made sense to me to either boycott or dislike someone’s work/art based on his/her/their political beliefs. Bruce Willis is MAGA, I still love Diehard. Seems rather snowflakish.

Typical straw man argument. Doesn’t change the fact that @hawkssox1 is a rube that gets manipulated by fake social media accounts. Ps I’m still laughing at him for being so gullible.

How much less could you care?

Was going to post this had I not seen yours.
Both movies are good I think

Your point? Who cares. We aren't on each others Christmas card list.

Hope you still have that sense of humor in November of next year.

THe joke will be with us either way...in the WH or in NYC.
It doesn't change the fact that my President is a joke....hence I will always have my sense of humor close by!

Thanks John.

I don't have to agree with someone's politics to enjoy their work. I really like Clint as a director with the exception of the 15:17 to Paris.

I was just asking a question.

Almost word for word what I was going to post. I do wonder if Eastwood would've been cast for his role if he wasn't also the director.

Beat me to it.

I thought CE did an outstanding job playing an old man who has made a lot of mistakes, has second thoughts and is given a way to "correct" the past mistakes via the "new age" route....with money. In the end, he realizes he did his best, corrected the past honorably and realized the money, altho gave him "instant gratification" was not necessary.
Probably way tooo much, huh?
See what you think when you get older/retired and gain some age/time left perspective.

Yes, I guess I didn't analyze it that much - Just thought it was "missing" something. Can't put my finger on it. Maybe would have been better to kill him off at the end. Have the cop shoot him? I also was expecting something Tarentino-esque happening to the Hispanic guy they mistakenly pulled over......It was a good movie....Started better than it ended.

I thought Eastwood fit the role perfectly....Though, damn I couldn't hear him half the time. Maybe I'm getting old...…..

 

[artradley]

I watched it with very little idea what it was going to be about, and liked it more than I expected. I expected it to be heavy and dark.

While I am not yet retired, I am almost 60. I have gained my share of perspective.

I very much enjoyed both movies.

You find even more once you don’t have to go to work every morning. Just wait and see.

Watched it last night. Well half of it before it put me to sleep.

He doesn’t like empty chairs, and apparently not empty heads either.

I thought it was okay. Not a theater movie

I chose Clint for my deserted island movie choice.
