Histoire
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesThanks to Eastwood's no frills, fast-paced shooting style and editing skills, this movie was in theaters a mere four months after completing photography.
- GaffesWhen Dr. Fox is doing her blood work on Terry, an x-ray is used whilst performing the biopsy. Both times, neither she nor anyone around are wearing protective lead garments against radiation exposure, which is a standard practice in any medical establishment. In addition, an endomyocardial biopsy, as it is called, is not preformed in a medical office as shown in the movie. It is performed in a cardiac cath lab, which is effectively, an operating room. All personnel are in scrubs and a sterile field is required. Lead is worn underneath the surgical gowns. From an outside perspective, it may not be readily apparent that the staff in a cath lab are wearing lead IF they are wearing surgical gowns appropriately.

Commentaire en vedette
Recovering from a heart transplant, a retired FBI profiler (Clint Eastwood) takes a case as a private investigator because of his amazing link to one of the victims. Jeff Daniels plays his amusing neighbor, a dock bum, while Wanda De Jesus appears as his potential girlfriend.
"Blood Work" (2002) was based on a Michael Connelly novel and his corresponding protagonist, Terry McCaleb, but the movie comes across as Dirty Harry's final case after retirement, sorta like "Gran Torino" (2008) was akin to "Dirty Harry, the Golden Years."
Eastwood was 71 during shooting, but his character is roughly eight years younger and he pulls it off. I point this out to stress that he's no longer kick-axx Dirty Harry. This is an aged, retired and recovering detective working on what is likely his last case. A lot of dialog is devoted to emphasizing how over-the-hill he is and how horrible he looks.
So, while this is a gritty big city detective flick in the mold of Dirty Harry, it's way more subdued and mature. It's more dramatic and less compelling. If you can roll with that, it's a decent detective movie. It's relatively realistic until the ending, which features a twist that I didn't foresee (although others say they did). The climax is unlikely and smacks of a typical Hollywood ending. "A Simple Plan" (1998) did the same thing: a believable story that takes a "Yeah, right" turn at the close.
The film runs 1 hour, 50 minutes and was shot in the Los Angeles area. Anjelica Huston also appears as a doctor while Paul Rodriguez is on hand as a cranky Hispanic detective.
