POSITIVES…
It's got a good premise for a story, has interesting enough characters, and I appreciated the movie's reverence for it's love of animals.
Deliberately moves at a leisurely pace that matches the calm tone, which surprisingly works well enough for a movie about two people on the run.
Part of the charm of this film is the growing relationship between the characters of Mike and Rafo.
Clint Eastwood plays a good old gruff cowboy, but that's to be expected.
Supporting actors Natalia Travern and Dwight Yoakam are fine in the roles given to them.
There are some thematic lessons introduced in the story that are worth discussing.
Despite a rocky first act, the second act of this film makes for a decent drama.
It's got that old fashioned idealized conclusion that warms your heart.
Macho the rooster. Easily one of the best things about this movie.
Appreciated the fact that it doesn't always translate the Spanish spoken in the film, which adds to the whole foreigner in a foreign land kinda thing.
NEGATIVES…
You need somebody to go save your son and you send a 90 something years old man?!
It feels like the majority of the dialogue is just a bunch of exposition.
It's not exactly the most energetic movie around.
Plot turns that are supposed to keep things lively, but more like they keep things pretty basic and contrived.
Very much has your familiar plot tropes and clichés.
Eduardo Minett as Rafo. I'm sorry dude, but this movie isn't really doing you any favors.
How come two of the main women characters in this movie act like they automatically want to sleep with Eastwood? Hey Director, stop flattering yourself.
