- al499225 December 2024Touching and Ironic, but that’s life!!!
- ርልዪረ7 February 2025This is a really excellent film with some very apt and atmospheric music. Jack Nicholson gives an outstanding performance as Jerry Black, a retired Nevada police detective who has given a pledge to a mother, that he will find the killer of her little girl. This is one of these films that keeps you on the edge of your seat. An unpredictable ending but the killer gets his just desserts and will not kill again. Great entertainment and the third film that was directed by Sean Penn. Sean Penn's fourth film was ' Into The Wild ' - another terrific film. Very Highly Recommended film.
