Review title: Disappointing
Product review: I went into "Mystic River" fully expecting this film to live up to the critical acclaim and accolades that had been heaped upon it. With Clint Eastwood directing and Tim Robbins, Sean Penn, Kevin Bacon, Laura Linney, and Marcia Gay Harden rounding out a stellar cast, I didn't think much could go wrong. Not true. This is one of the most disappointing cinematic experiences I've ever had. The plot is bland and is not in any way original or creative. In fact, it is derivative and closely resembles Lifetime movie of the week productions as far as story and execution go. It's your regular Whodunit movie, only with a Hollywood cast. I still have no idea what the big deal about this movie is. Yes, the acting is all right--it's hard for these actors to misstep--but in the end the story itself is simply not as engaging and original as critics made it out to be. I would avoid this one.
