I couldn't believe how heavy-handed parts of it were! I would go a little easier on Damon. I'm not sure if his accent just seemed passable compared to Freeman's lazy attempt, but it didn't bother me.

I've had an issue with the music in almost all of Eastwood's films this decade — especially the terrible piano score he did himself for Mystic River. His son handles a lot of the scores too, including this one, and the nepotism isn't doing them any favors. You know you're bad if after 20 years in the biz your Dad is the only one willing to hire you!
