I liked "Million Dollar Baby" and "Gran Torino" so I had every intention to see "Trouble With The Curve". Now I don't... It's not Eastwood's politics that made me change my mind. I have seen movies with Andy Garcia, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Robert Duval who lean right. The difference is they didn't go out of their way to disrespect my president.

It's something about his always-the-same squinty expression and gruff, raspy delivery. Yeah, I get it, Clint, your character is a real tough guy. And that character is too. And that one. And that other one. And the next. Rinse, lather, repeat. Snooze.
