The lost of a father, the lost of an identity. The healing began when he apperared. Rdeaming and affirming, he exposed the boy into the world of a man. Not exactly positive, yet the significance is break taking. The heart longs... Full review

as a director. He takes the Costner character, starts him as a monster you hate, rounds him out with a conscience, then you hate him again, then restores his soul at the end. I've never seen this done in ANY movie... Full review

The acting by both Eastwood and Kevin Costner makes this easily one of the better films in both their careers, which is interesting....A Perfect World' is often overlooked, which is a shame as it is a fine piece of work.....Young newcomer TJ Lowther also turns in a stellar performance, convincing and touching..... ...

Eastwood is more than capable behind the camera and in front of the camera.
This is perhaps the most powerful Costner performance I've seen-subtle and believable.

Speaking in a honey-smooth drawl, Costner is warm and appealing.....It may be the single most bloated movie Eastwood has ever made.....Butch is capable of killing without hesitation, A Perfect World loses almost any pretense of being about a pathological crook..... ... Full Review

The whole damn film takes place in moving cars.....And Kevin Costner is just about the most beloved movie star in the country.....while very likable, isn't the actor to pull it off.....it's too bad the average renter will see literally only half the movie.....Worse, the scenes with Garnett have no reason to exist, other than to fritter away tension with corny comic byplay..... ...
