5/10
Has to go down as one of the least subtle films of recent memory. Eastwood makes everything as plain as day as possible and leaves literally nothing for the viewer to think about for him/herself. The movie is well photographed (especially the rugby scenes) and the performances are fine across the board (although neither Freeman nor Damon are really exerting themselves here) but it lurches forward with such rigidity that it's hard to feel any emotion about it at all. Painfully average and all the more disappointing for it.
