Description:
Double Academy Award winners' Kevin Costner and Clint Eastwood confront each other from opposite sides of the law in A Perfect World, an acclaimed, multilayered manhunt saga (directed by Eastwood) that rumbles down Texas backroads toward a harrowing collision with fate. Costner plays Butch Haynes, a hardened prison escapee on the lam with a young hostage (T.J. Lowther in a remarkable film debut) who sees in Butch the father figure he never had. Eastwood is wily Texas Ranger Red Garnett, leading deputies and a criminologist (Laura Dern) in a statewide pursuit. Red knows every road and pothole in the Panhandle. What's more, he knows the elusive Haynes-because their paths have crossed before.
Amazon.com essential video:
This curiously overlooked drama from Clint Eastwood, released just after his Oscar triumph with Unforgiven, concerns a prisoner (Kevin Costner) on the lam with a kidnapped young boy as protection and the Texas Ranger (Eastwood) and federal agent (Laura Dern) on his tail. Eastwood manages a number of nice touches--the boy's innocence is nicely contrasted with Costner's soft-spoken desperado by the Casper Halloween costume he wears, and the law-enforcement officials look vaguely foolish, tooling around the countryside with a high-tech camper in tow. Eastwood gives a grizzled performance that, despite its seen-it-all surface, still feels fresh after all these years, and he coaxes surprisingly sensitive work out of Costner. But it's the sheer, modest scale of this piece that makes it so disarming--no planet lies in jeopardy, there are no cosmic make-or-break consequences here, just committed people doing their job and a well-meaning bad guy hoping things don't get too out of hand while he prevents them from doing it. --David Kronke

And that's saying something, considering how much I love Field of Dreams.
This is a terrific movie that Kevin Costner absolutely shines in.
Cast against type, he gives a mesmorizing performance as escaped con Butch Haynes.
They only quibble I have is toward the ending with the unsettling scene with the black family.
I understand that Butch has issues with child abuse but the scene goes on way too long and the implications of a murder about to take place make it difficult to ... Read More

This film again established Clint Eastwood as an important director to watch but it proved to be disappointing at the box office despite good reviews. Perhaps it strikes too close to home for many Americans to examine what's happening to our kids when we neglect them and they turn out like character Costner plays as an escaped convict who despite everything has a soft side to him in his relationship to the little boy he befriends. Eastwood, himself, wisely took a supporting role as the sheriff who ... Read More

A Perfect World starring and directed by Clint Eastwood is an intriguing story of a strange and unlikely friendship between a young boy and the man who kidnaps him. Kevin Costner plays the kidnapper who is running from the sherrif played by Eastwood. I enjoyed this movie, I wasn't expecting such a moving piece of storytelling. I highly recommend checking this under-rated gem out!

I got this movie as a birthday present 2 years ago. I love it.
As a Clint Eastwood fan, I enjoy it very much, here we have a CLint Eastwood against Costner.
What I love about Eastwood movies is the fact that he always brings up the best of human beings and explore that.
Here we have an exconvict in a runway along with a boy he took from a home..... The little boy called Phillip will steal your heart..
A movie to watch more than once...

At 130 minutes, A Perfect World is certainly overlong - Kevin Costner takes even longer to die than Marlon Brando did in Mutiny on the Bounty - but compared to most films that attempt to pair box-office giants and simply ending up alienating both star's followings, it's actually rather good. Clint Eastwood the director fares better than Eastwood the actor, who could quite easily be cut out of the film, having little to do and doing it with minimum interest. Ditto Laura Dern's psychologist, who seems ... Read More
