Cry Macho

Nonagenarian actor/director Clint Eastwood rides off a little further into the sunset in this contemporary Western...

The simple sincerity about what’s worthwhile in life is the movie’s reason for being.

There’s something touching about seeing the 91-year-old Eastwood in such a reflective mood.

His Mike is a man out of time: a lone-wolf reminder of a world that once was, and will most likely be lost when he goes. 

Eastwood’s back with a look at manliness filtered through the wisdom of aging. It makes the odd stultifying stop and falls into several cliché potholes, yet Cry Macho ultimately finds its way.
