RATINGS & REVIEWS

Rating: 1
Boring & the wig & old makeup was distractingly bad

Rating: 2
Jumped backwards in forwards in time so much I never knew what time we were meant to be in. Several gay male friends thought this movie was brilliant; but I don't share their enthusiasm. Disappointing effort from director Clint Eastwood.

It was an interesting film but I thought the acting was substandard and a bit boring

Really slow, and lots to say, but it takes too long to say it.....Leo is great, with lots of social stigma of the 50s & 60s, wait for the DVD....too long for cinema, entertainment value zero. Bio on Edgar's life.....enjoy looking at Leo
