It’s hardly the most vigorous filmmaking of his career, but it’s been a while since Eastwood – albeit in his typically brisk, terse fashion – had quite this much to say.

It feels like one of those endlessly rewatchable ’90s legal thrillers, and it also has some weighty stuff on its mind as it interrogates the nature of what actually makes a man guilty and what it means to have justice served.

A great example of Eastwood's efficiency as a filmmaker: lean, taut storytelling that doesn't waste a moment.
