Right on the heels of his critical and box-office smash Unforgiven, Clint Eastwood made this outstanding, haunting tale of an escaped convict (Kevin Costner in his greatest performance), and it was completely ignored.
October 15, 2004
Stark, gritty story well directred by Eastwood.
January 02, 2004
Moving and totally absorbing.

Entertaining manhunt film.

A Perfect World is evidence that Hollywood is still capable of producing the kinds of moving, intelligent movies that have increasingly become the province of independent film makers.

Tells the tale of an escaped convict and his eight-year-old hostage and, in the process, considers the cycles of disappointment wrought on sons by questionable fathers: abusive ones, absent ones, even a well-meaning "daddy state." [Blu-ray]

It's an American masterpiece.
January 01, 2000
This is a movie that surprises you.
March 03, 2006
A tender, poignant, ultimately heartbreaking film filled with haunting, lasting images and nicely eccentric touches. Arguably Costner's best performance, and one of Eastwood's most underrated efforts behind the camera.
January 01, 2000
Within its narrow, unambitious, commercial boundaries, the movie is highly watchable.
June 08, 2012
It will not please everyone because it presents things in shades of gray and takes few easy outs.
June 06, 2001
In going beyond chase-yarn duty, Eastwood and Costner do themselves proud.
