“Cry Macho,” the latest act directed by Clint Eastwood, climbed straight to number three in its first weekend in theaters, bringing in $4.4 million.

The 91-year-old American actor returns to the West that made him famous and plays former rodeo champ, Mike Milo, in charge of one last assignment.

David A. says: institution.

“But with its lukewarm reviews, even in normal times, the film had started well below average for Clint Eastwood Western,” he adds.
