Tietoja tästä elokuvasta

Eastwood stars as Earl Stone, a man in his 80s who is broke, alone, and facing foreclosure of his business when he is offered a job that simply requires him to drive. Easy enough, but, unbeknownst to Earl, he’s just signed on as a drug courier for a Mexican cartel. He does well—so well, in fact, that his cargo increases exponentially, and Earl is assigned a handler. But he isn’t the only one keeping tabs on Earl; the mysterious new drug mule has also hit the radar of hard-charging DEA agent Colin Bates. And even as his money problems become a thing of the past, Earl’s past mistakes start to weigh heavily on him, and it’s uncertain if he’ll have time to right those wrongs before law enforcement, or the cartel’s enforcers, catch up to him.

Loved it, Clint still as good as ever. I'm sure some will find it slow going but this a film written, produced and directed with care. If you're looking for instant gratification look elsewhere, patience however will be rewarded with a gritty yet touching story of how life can turn on us. and when at our lowest points be unwittingly led down the wrong path by those who would prey on the weak.

Pure Eastwood gold. A slow burner which won't be to everyone's tastes, but an excellent and thought-provoking film.

Clint Eastwood! Still awesome at making movies & acting , nice to see his daughter was in the film too.
