It was filmed down the street from where we live.

This is a good, entertaining and engaging movie without any violence or special effects. I would recommend it unless swearing and obscene language just rubs you in reverse.

It is surely “A Gospel Way To Die!” Also, Clint Eastwood is probably my favorite “macho” actor of all time, even in his old age.
