External critics' reviews

Rolling Stone Peter Travers
Clint Eastwood pours everything he knows about directing into Mystic River. His film sneaks up, messes with your head and then floors you. You can't shake it. It's that haunting, that hypnotic. more
Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert
To see strong acting like this is exhilarating. In a time of flashy directors who slice and dice their films in a dizzy editing rhythm, it is important to remember that films can look and listen and attentively sympathize with their characters. Directors grow great by subtracting, not adding, and Eastwood does nothing for show, everything for effect. more
Chicago Tribune Michael Wilmington
Mystic River is classic Eastwood, classic noir. If there is still some doubt about whether this one-time macho star is actually a world-class moviemaker, Mystic River should end the argument for good. One of the best American movies of the year, crisply well-crafted and beautifully acted. more
Christian Science Monitor David Sterritt
This kind of quiet ambiguity, avoiding easy answers to complex human conflicts, is all too rare in American movies. more
San Francisco Chronicle Carla Meyer
Chilling, superbly acted. more
Premiere Glenn Kenny
Perhaps the greatest, most affecting articulation of the theme Eastwood has been exploring since 1990's "White Hunter Black Heart": how violence--real violence, not movie violence--perpetrated and experienced, can erode and/or obliterate the human soul. more
Entertainment Weekly Lisa Schwarzbaum
Eastwood directs Mystic River with an invigorated grace and gravitas. This is a true American beauty of a movie, a tale of men and their bonds told by and for adults who value the old-fashioned Hollywood-studio notion of narrative. more
Portland Oregonian Shawn Levy
Eastwood has crafted one of the most powerful American dramas in years. more
Seattle Post-Intelligencer William Arnold
Moves along its course and overflows at its climax with that indefinable but unmistakable assurance of a master filmmaker who knows just what he wants to say, is in total command of his medium and is in no mood to make any compromises. more
Dallas Observer Robert Wilonsky
The performances are uniformly remarkable. more
