It's an American masterpiece.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Nov 26, 2013

It will not please everyone because it presents things in shades of gray and takes few easy outs.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Jun 8, 2012

Tells the tale of an escaped convict and his eight-year-old hostage and, in the process, considers the cycles of disappointment wrought on sons by questionable fathers: abusive ones, absent ones, even a well-meaning "daddy state." [Blu-ray]

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jun 5, 2012

Entertaining manhunt film.

| Original Score: C- | Sep 7, 2011

Hancock's surface-skimming script is too formulaic for the job. There's enough material here for a crisp 90-minute entertainment. At 2+ hours, the leisurely, mildly engaging A Perfect World barely sputters across the finish line.

A tender, poignant, ultimately heartbreaking film filled with haunting, lasting images and nicely eccentric touches. Arguably Costner's best performance, and one of Eastwood's most underrated efforts behind the camera.

Right on the heels of his critical and box-office smash Unforgiven, Clint Eastwood made this outstanding, haunting tale of an escaped convict (Kevin Costner in his greatest performance), and it was completely ignored.

Never once feels like more than push-button artifice.
