Movie Reviews of Clint Eastwood Collection: Pink Cadillac
Movie Review: Clint's greatest film ever! No, wait, his worst, a real mess, especially by his standards....
Summary: 2 Stars
In the annals of cinema history, Clint Eastwood is rightfully regarded as one of the greatest American filmmakers. He has made many great films, and will continue to do so.
This is not one of them.
This is Clint's worst film, one of his few real duds. It's a long movie at 121 minutes, but even if Clint had edited it down a bit, it still wouldn't be very good. I couldn't help but think that Clint didn't really care about this film too much, as he looks bored throughout, and while Bernadette Peters (I think this was the last starring role she had before she went full time on Broadway) tries to spice things up (and has good on screen chemistry with Clint), it's still a very poor film. There are major plot holes, the biggest of Clint's career. The tone of the film is rather jarring, switching from light comedy to crude one liners to harrowing gun fights with white supremacists. Basically, it's just a mess.
There are a few (just a few) good things. It's shot on location in the Sierras, there is a good chase scene at the end, Jim Carrey appears as an Elvis impersonator, and there is some funny situations at the beginning of the film (Clint's first arrest here is very funny). Clint didn't direct this film, but his production company produced it and Buddy Van Horn directed it. Van Horn is Clint's stunt coordinator and Clint surrogate, and has directed several Clint films (most notably The Dead Pool). So it's really Clint's film, and it's his worst. Most people agree that this film and The Rookie are Clint's worst, but The Rookie is a lot better than this one. If you are a fan of Clint, and you have to see everything he's done, watch this. If you aren't, avoid it.
Summary of Clint Eastwood Collection: Pink Cadillac
A comic action-adventure about a modern-day bounty hunter chasing down a bail-jumping woman fleeing her ex-con husband in his prized 1959 pink cadillac.Clint Eastwood plays a bounty hunter who helps out the wife (Bernadette Peters) of a bail-jumper after her child is kidnapped by neo-Nazi types. A long, entirely forgettable comedy with an uneven tone, this is purely for diehard fans of Eastwood's erratic work before Unforgiven bumped him up to the A list. Better Eastwood choices from around the same time as this film (1989) include Tightrope, The Dead Pool, and White Hunter, Black Heart. Little known at the time, Jim Carrey has a small part in this throwaway Eastwood film (directed by Eastwood's sometime-collaborator, Buddy Van Horn). --Tom Keogh
