Review of Cry Macho

Cry Macho (2021)
2/10
Unbelievable Story, and all the side actors belong in a straight to DVD movie

Warning: Spoilers
Let's say you're the boss. You fire a worker who has different outlooks on life. Fast forward a year later, would you hire the same guy to go across the country to retrieve your estranged son? It's so flipping silly. It would've made more sense if Clint's character had a large upbringing in Mexico, but even then the whole leading scenarios aren't as believable. Clint's character still acts like he's trying to be a 30 year old stud. And all the Mexican characters feel like something out of a cheesey modern soap opera instead of the 1980 lifestyle at the time. The acting ranges from passable to horrendous, and it's hard to watch as an old school Clint Eastwood fan. So yeah, this ain't no Gran Torino. It's more like a B movie production that saved enough to hire a fan favorite actor.
