  1. Never more than a dull, paint-by-numbers, overly literal transcription of the book.
  2. Eastwood, who once upon a time was a flavorful director, is working in movie-of-the-week mode here. Cheesy, direct, bland.
  3. There are tones of 1970s shaggy realism that are interrupted by moments of character-driven shtick. The wistful scenes aren’t rich enough to engross you and the comedy isn’t clever enough to make a difference.
  4. A difficult time rising above the level of a reasonably nice TV-movie.
