Review of Every Which Way but Loose (1978) by Phillip G — 30 May 2014
Clint Eastwood's career low-point...until the sequel.
Not necessarily the worst movie Clint Eastwood ever made, but it must be close to to it. No, a career low-point because he chose to be in it. The script alone, and the fact that his co-star is an orangutan, should have tipped him off that this movie was not going to be anything more than mediocre. He should have listened to WC Fields: "Never work with animals or children".
The money must have been good.
Quite silly, lowest common denominator stuff. Pointless, random, hole-filled plot. The whole aim seems to be to get to the next fight scene.
And then, two years later, Eastwood appeared in the sequel, Any Which Way You Can...
