From producer, actor, and director Clint Eastwood comes the new action thriller Blood Work. THe film was interesting, but had a rather simple and straightfoward plot. The action was entertaining, yet not abysmal. Clint stil shares the good vs. bad guy role in this film, but perhaps with a little less suave and sohpistication. Clint Eastwood stars as retired FBI profiler, Terry McCalleb, during a murder investigation he chases the alleged killer ans soon suffers from a near heart attack. He needs a heart transplant, and gets one, but then he realizes that the donor died. And so he investigates his donor's death. From here we get other exciting performances from Wanda De Jesus, Jeff Daniels, who is not as friendly as he looks and even Paul Rodriguez, the humorous and comical comedian. The film works well on its own terms and is actually a better than average thriller. Blood Work is rated R for Violence and Language, so not the best of choices for preteens, but perhaps acceptable and adequate. The film's action is reasonable and yet not vociferous and noisy or even intense. The film is decent and enjoyable, but perhaps you should only see this film once. See Blood Work, in theatres everywhere August 9, 2002.
