Review of Cry Macho

If you'e a Clint Eastwood fan, you should see this. You may or may not rave, but you should see this. If you're not a fan, I doubt if you'll appreciate it. The story is of Clint being persuaded to recover a son whose mother took him to Mexico years ago. Clint goes, finds the son and the rest of the movie is spent on various adventures trying to get out. Entertaining, but only because it's Clint.

First, he puts himself in many implausible/untenable positions, starting with the quest to find the long-lost son. Then, the reaction of the mother of the child - not believable at all. The kids reactions seem pretty superficial - all appear to advance the plot, with little insight/emotion.
