Full Plot Details

Clint Eastwood stars as Earl Stone, a man who is ninety years old, broke, alone, and facing foreclosure of his business when he is offered a job that simply requires him to drive. Easy enough, but, unbeknownst to Earl, he's just signed on as a drug courier for a Mexican cartel. He does well, so well, in fact, that his cargo increases exponentially, and Earl is assigned a handler. But he isn't the only one keeping tabs on Earl. The mysterious new drug mule has also hit the radar of hard-charging D.E.A. Agent Colin Bates (Bradley Cooper). And even as his money problems become a thing of the past, Earl's past mistakes start to weigh heavily on him, and it's uncertain if he'll have time to right those wrongs before law enforcement, or the cartel's enforcers, catch up to him.

Movie Reviews

Little White Lies - 9/10 by Mark AschThe Mule is a beautiful, troubling film. It is a pearl formed around a grit of unease in the oyster of our nostalgia.
The Atlantic - 9/10 by David SimsThis movie is as much a eulogy for a country that Eastwood sees as slowly crumbling as it is for the life Earl chose to lead.
The Hollywood Reporter - 8/10 by Todd McCarthyLess cranky and inciting than Gran Torino but persuasively expressive in conveying an old man's regrets along with his desire to improve himself even in late age, The Mule shows that Eastwood's still got it, both as a director and actor.
Entertainment Weekly - 8/10 by Chris NashawatyThe Mule fits the 88-year-old Eastwood perfectly. Not just because there probably aren’t many roles for actors of his age out there, but also because its lack of judgment makes sense for a star who’s always been as willing to play anti-heroes as heroes.
Original-Cin - 8/10 by Liam LaceyThematic issues aside, Eastwood is noted for a high level of economic craft and The Mule is no exception.
Chicago Sun-Times - 8/10 by Richard RoeperIt’s an entertaining enough offbeat crime comedy/drama featuring an amazing cast — led by the grizzled, shuffling, mumbling, wisecracking old dog playing the lead.
Observer - 8/10 by Rex ReedAs Earl, Clint Eastwood is so believable and such a charming curmudgeon that when the cops from the Federal Drug Administration led by Bradley Cooper turn the tables, you don’t want them to.
The Associated Press - 8/10 by Jake CoyleAs The Mule ambles toward its conclusion, it draws closer to Stone, and maybe to Eastwood’s legacy, too.
Los Angeles Times - 8/10 by Kenneth TuranThough the feeling sneaks up on you, The Mule has an unexpected emotional kick. That’s because in subject and execution it plays as personal as anything the filmmaker has done.
IndieWire - 8/10 by David EhrlichThis soulful and deeply satisfying film — a fitting swansong, if ever there was one — makes a compelling argument that change is always possible, and that the path we’re on is never as narrow as the highway makes it look.
