Una de Eastwood sin Eastwood pero con Costner. Con un tema con una temática agradable, pero de alguna manera demasiado simple, solo flotando en la superficie. Los clichés del género, junto con Giacchino, cuyo rasgueo poético del western intenta vanamente imitar al dúo Eastwood / Niehaus, solo confirman la mediocridad de la obra. Es una pena: solo Diane Lane es la única que aporta algún indicio de profundidad, y el motivo con el indio solitario tiene algo.

A 1960s Western vibe, retired sheriff Kevin Costner and the always good and attractive Diane Lane are on the trail of their grandson who is in the hands of a violent man and a strange family. The film moves at a very slow pace but manages to build up the atmosphere nicely, at least from the family dinner – lately a major point of confrontation in – escalating with a scene in a room and culminating in an atmospheric finale where there is a bit of action. A powerful story with impressive performances, a tightly packed atmosphere and heightened emotion. Not for everyone but I enjoyed it. Story****, Action**, Humor>No, Violence**, Entertainment****, Music***, Visuals****, Atmosphere****, Suspense***. 7/10.

A suspense flick where almost everything works in a minimum of space. Costner and Lane had already proven themselves as a film couple in Man of Steel, and it was probably no coincidence that they reprised similar roles several years later. A typical Eastwood movie that lacks the traditional morose Eastwood, but instead there's a damn cool Costner in his typical "semi-scruffy guy" role that he's been playing for a good decade now, and it’s still fun, as it's apt, from life and avoids useless talk about nothing. Costner's character here is also the quiet type, but he's on point and the film's strongest moments are around him. In contrast, Diane Lane puts in a palette of expressive emotions and sometimes the writers untie her hands too much, overwhelming the viewer with dialogue that could have been shorter. Another great little film that is sometimes painful to watch, but throws in some interesting moments to ponder about family, relationships, life's losses, etc.

If you don’t know what build-up is, watch Let Him Go, an old-school film, with terrific performances by Diane Lane and Kevin Costner, and an atmosphere that thickens and thickens and thickens until it burns with flame.

The result exceeded my expectations in full! It’s a slowly unfolding, old-school film that drags in some moments (especially the first half is a prime example), but on the other hand, it stays firmly in the above-average range, thanks to the perfect chemistry between the lead actors (Kevin Costner, Diane Lane). While the plot isn’t particularly innovative, as a viewer, I was still surprised by one crazy situation that I really didn’t expect. From the dinner scene at the beginning of the second half (which is, for me, the best sequence of the entire film, with the dense atmosphere literally palpable), the film picked up pace, and the dialogues were gripping. It all concluded with a successful, cathartic, and simultaneously sad ending. I can imagine that with a more capable director, we might have had a film of the year. But satisfaction still prevails. For me, 7.5/10
