There aren't words to describe how awfully bad this movie is... except it's 104 minutes of pure torture. It's horrible all the way around starting with the script that's chalk full of contrived dialogue. Acting is horrendous by all in it starting with Dwight Yokum who never had a lick of acting talent. Eastwood is probably at his worst in this and the kid is cringingly horrible. I'd be furious if I had paid to see this movie (thanks HBO Max). However I do resent that I was robbed of 104 minutes of my life. Frankly I'd have turned it off after 20 minutes but I kept waiting for it to get even a smidgen better. Sadly it only got worse. Sad end to Eastman's career, he should have quit while he was ahead. One star is being kind!
