The movie could have used a heart transplant of its own, for its ultimate undoing is its minuscule, phoned-in energy level.

Even as it ends in a flurry of absurd plot twists, Blood Work holds you in a vise.

Typically for Eastwood, there are modest touches to savor.

Disappointing, predictable, and graphic.

It doesn't sound bad...but Bloodwork is bad, oh, lordy, yes, it is.

The pivotal teaser is a numerical code that baffles experts but gets cracked in one curious gaze by a schoolboy.

It's always nice to see Clint.

Eastwood's sharpest filmmaking since the gig that won him an Oscar.

It can be argued, I suppose, that Blood Work was designed from the outset not so much as a whodunit as a why-and-how-dunit, and here the film becomes metaphysically ingenious.

It's mostly a pro forma police procedural spiced by a baroque twist that Eastwood doesn't really know what to do with.
