Clint Eastwood’s swansong from acting, and a huge hit too.
I always had a bit of a problem with that.
And secondly, is that actually a bad thing?
Im not utterly convinced that it is.
Kowalski hates his Hmong neighbours, hates the gangs, and hates his two dimensional, money-grabbing family.
And hes not shy about letting everyone know.
If this really is his last acting role, then heck, were going to miss him.
For me thus far, its my film of the year.
Its still a strong little featurette, however, and the best extra youll find on the disc.
They are, sadly, really quite forgettable.
The Blu-ray presentation is sound, although inevitably its not the most showy of films.
The Film:
