FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://fandomwire.com/american-star-review-a-contemplative-introspection/ "American Star is a commendable self-reflection character study, bolstered by Ian McShane's brilliantly contained performance, a thematically rich narrative, and a truly gorgeous location. The contemplative storytelling contributes to an immersive viewing experience about coming to terms with our doings in life, despite some predictability issues and an unnecessary character that robs the movie of a more fitting, emotionally impactful ending. It occasionally falters in keeping its momentum, but the crew and cast ultimately succeed in prompting introspection on the moral intricacies of human nature and the inevitability of change."
