Mystic River review by ciml
Excellent Performances
(3) of (3) members found this review helpful.
Sean Penn and Tim Robbins soundly deserved their Oscars for their roles in this long, compelling story of childhood demons resurfacing in adulthood. Clint Eastwood directs this film with typical attention to detail, creating a strong sense of reality that at times can be hard to bear.

Mystic River review by 33rpm
Excellent Movie
(3) of (4) members found this review helpful.
Got to admit I'd never heard of this before I came across it here and what an excellent movie! A story that keeps you enthralled from start to finish and moves along at a good pace. Great performances from Tim Robbins, Sean Penn and Kevin Bacon - in fact the whole cast should be proud of their performances in this one. You really should see this movie, it really is that good.

Mystic River review by JD
Very dark.

After the abduction it keeps getting grimmer. A man with a huge problem in his psychological past has a wife who becomes so suspicious of him that she sets him up to get abducted again by some Mafia style thugs. The film explores some seedy and unpleasant sides of Boston life. Larger than life detectives carry the plot. I hope you can tell, I found it morbidly gripping but ultimately it left a dirty feeling.

The river is riveting

What an excellent movie. I worried that something would be lost on the small screen but the pace, cast, screenplay, plot and camera shots were completely enthralling for over 2 hours - a masterpiece.

I found the story a little bit slow but the brilliant cast makes up for it. Well worth a look.
