THE MULE: B-
A performance driven film that relied heavily upon a seasoned director/actor with an all star cast to elevate a solid, yet conventional script. While the characters may have been spontaneous themselves, the structure of the story predictable and quite strict.
As he has been the past 65 years, Clint Eastwood was brilliant as Earl Stone. Michael Pena and Bradley Cooper worked well together and with performances like these Cooper is quietly cementing himself into modern day Marlon Brando type territory. Dianne Wiest has had better performances, but she was still good in this one.
The Cinematography was strong in this film. Well lit, well shot and a great attention to detail.
