THE MULE (Theatrical Release USA 2018)

 Ben Meyers’ Rating: 4.3|5.0 Starsìììì 

The Mule—very creative and interesting storyline—serves as an exceptionally good watch for the adult audience. Clint Eastwood has deeply layered this film with an elderly man’s life story and thoroughly explores choices as well as outcomes of choices. Watch for the very good pairing of Bradley Cooper and Michael Peña. Know that this film runs on highly amoral lines, has sexual content and violence. It does not serve a wide audience range.
