Director: Clint Eastwood
Cast: Clint Eastwood, Jeff Daniels, Wanda De Jesus, Anjelica Huston

A lazy and hackneyed thriller about a retired FBI profiler who is trying to solve the murder of the woman who donated his newly transplanted heart. Clint nicely uses (and even makes fun of) his age and fragility in the lead, although he also manages to bed a woman half his age. The central murder plot, however, is extremely formulaic and predictable. Based on Michael Connelly's novel.
