About this movie

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.

Ratings and reviews

A very bad movie. Bad story, bad premise. If they keep making movies like these, then people will stop watching. Don't trust Rotten Tomatoes ratings. They don't always get it right.

nice,interesting to see characters giving their hundred percent.

I always admire Clint Eastwood. slight emotions and nuances of life are portrayed brilliantly. looking forward to more.
