636. Cry Macho (2021)

*The Warlock is at The Grand Wizard’s Domain wearing a Bloodline t-shirt, blue jeans, white sneakers and gargoyle shades. He’s holding a Mega Pint of Pepsi*

W: Welcome to my father’s place for a special edition of Warlock’s Movie Realm. In keeping with the theme to do relatively new movies, my father and I will be taking a look at a Western that came out last September. That movie is the Clint Eastwood drama CRY MACHO.

*Warlock takes his seat in the middle of the couch*

W: So what’s this about? Eastwood is a washed up rodeo cowboy that has to take someone’s son home from Mexico. Eastwood rarely does movies these days since he’s over 90 years old now, but when he does, he doesn’t miss. Gran Torino was legendary and The Mule was great too. Let’s see if CRY MACHO belongs on the list of great old man Eastwood movies. So grab your popcorn, grab your drink and grab your woman because its time for CRY MACHO.

*Wizard reads the tag-line*

Wi: “A one-time rodeo star and washed-up horse breeder takes a job to bring a man’s young son home and away from his alcoholic mom. On their journey, the horseman finds redemption through teaching the boy what it means to be a good man.”

W: Isn’t that nice.
