I never understood why these Clint Eastwood movies are popular.
I like Eastwood OK.
I liked "Heartbreak Ridge", "White Hunter, Black Heart" and "The Unforgiven" ... they were all great movies, whatever minor flaws they might have.
But I don't get the pointless superficial bloodiness and why that seemed to establish Eastwood as a major actor. He's not that great of an actor. There are so many violent movies like this, or just special effects, I do not for the life of me understand why they are so popular.
