I think it was a good film but it's definitely my least favorite Clint Eastwood film so far. I felt that it was slightly out of focus and bordered on being too self-indulgent. I don't always mind self-indulgence too much, but the movie isn't fully committed to it, so it just ends up being sort of distracting at best and pathetic at worst. That being said, I thought it was funny and sometimes clever.

The humor is too silly, there are too many cliches throughout, and it even got…
