Feeling that his life is slipping out of control, Max’s first impulse is to find out who his rival is. Then it dawns on him – could the way he has treated his wife be the reason why she has sought out another lover?Now Max attempts to see his situation from a different point of view. Last week he was ready to plan the yearly guys’ vacation he takes with his best buddy, but now things have changed.Max recognizes just how much he needs Nathalie’s humor, her organizing talent and her optimism, but also just how important to him she and his family really are.

But turning his life around is far more difficult than he had imagined.To make matters worse, Gregor turns out to be a loving, family-oriented man just what Nathalie needs. Max is desperate – he knows there is a real chance that he might lose Nathalie and the children.Willing to put everything on the line to keep his family intact, Max makes the biggest sacrifice of his life. Then something happens that is the very last thing he could have ever counted on…
一个饱经风霜，被生活洗尽铅华，早已参透“硬汉”不过虚名，外表弱不禁风，内心坚如磐石；一个渴望温情，却过早熟悉冷漠，妄图伪装“硬汉”对抗世界，看似叛逆独立，实则脆弱无助。这样两个“表里不一”的家伙，被一只名副其实的“硬汉”牵线搭桥，并目（依）睹（靠）其在危机中力挽狂澜，如此设定无奈中透着几分戏谑与豁达。当二人一鸡的旅途行至终点，孤老寻得归宿，顽童走向成熟，观众也被传递了一波生活的真谛。剧本结构简单得就像一则小品，叙事上却依然有着老派的沉稳大气，节奏娓娓道来，丝毫不觉乏味。年迈的他在表达上愈发温和，也正呼应了片中的角色，对人生的回顾和总结与《骡子》异曲同工，难怪又要亲自出演。虽有力不从心，亦是甘之如饴。无论如何，能在银幕上看到老爷子的身影就是一种奢侈。牛仔离不开马背，东木永远属于片场。
雄鸡和老爷子
没想到东木老爷子这把年纪了还能再来一次“廊桥遗梦”LOL
首先不得不感叹老东木身体之强健、精力之旺盛，音乐品味也一如既往的好。但到了这个年纪，也不能要求他部部精品，何况还是自导自演，这次剧本实话说有点随意和敷衍了，片中并没有一场真正意义上的危机场面，当然也无法寄希望一个90高龄老人上演出格的演出（只是坐马上的镜头就让人心惊胆战），缺少戏剧冲突也更突显出温柔如水。而一些明显是在跟自己做道别的细节，挺感慨的，并且再让自己置身西部世界和来上一段浪漫的黄昏之恋，对他一辈子的西部情结也是最好的谢幕方式了。
相当有失水准的克林特的电影，但是为了看他，我也愿意看。可是确实是他发挥得不好的一部电影。
骨子里的牛仔精神，一次对于《完美的世界》的自我复制，但故事上和老牛仔近些年的故事一样更加童话和美好，也许这就是老头子越发老小老小的“童”心未泯吧 ★★☆
“I can’t cure old” 但是电影可以 老爷子硬硬朗朗的
内容被抛弃的小清新作品，清新中透露着迟暮岁月的创作解脱，希望是。
7.5
九十一岁的东木从业五十年，参加过一百多部电影的制作，可是总有一些人想教他怎么拍电影。
需要矛盾与冲突的地方都可以猜出来，每一个铺陈之后都没什么意外。不过，还是佩服东木大爷。
劇情有點平淡，也沒什麼出彩吸引人的部分，中間部分氣氛挺好，結局有點蹩腳，整體來說沒有預想中來得好。
老爷车没油了，但还在路上
老爷子九十多了还自导自演，祝您长命百岁。
确实不算好。“you are a real cowboy”,这种台词说给谁，都觉得耻度很大，除了90+的伊斯特伍德。&耄耋之年的公路恋爱，依然说服力Max（《牡丹花下》翻拍换成科林法瑞尔，极大影响了剧情信度）。总之看见他就高兴，五星吧。
牛仔老了 真的太不容易了 这么大岁数还在拍
哪里惊悚了…平静的路程，温和的终点，和解的结局
67/100。相较于《骡子》《理查德·朱维尔的哀歌》这两部还带有一定指向性的前作来说，克林特·伊斯特伍德在本片中则完全褪掉了对社会现象的自我认知，而转成了一个耄耋之年的老人与生活达成的某种自我和解。很多可能在他年轻时的电影中变得“刺激”“惊险”的桥段被磨平了所有棱角，只剩下一种淡淡的温柔思索，让人窥见了暮年英雄心中最静谧的一面。当然这样的处理方法一方面让人舒心，另一方面还是让全片显得有些不伦不类，让那些矛盾点变得来也匆匆、去也匆匆，只能远观，不能细看。 @2021-10-05 23:43:00
多一星给老爷子面子 其实可以更好 一直以为最后俩人会中枪然后骑马去边境 做成让子弹飞的开放式结局效果 但也很好
看完之后莫名特别悲伤，这可能是老爷子的倒数第二部电影了
