‘Trouble With the Curve” is one of the more telling demonstrations of what Clint Eastwood brings to the table as a director — precisely because he didn’t direct it. A slow-rolling, distressingly formulaic drama about an aging baseball scout (Eastwood) and his last season on the road, the film’s the debut effort by Robert Lorenz, who has served the star in various capacities (most recently producer) on almost every Eastwood film since 1995’s “The Bridges of Madison County.” This is essentially a case of the boss giving Lorenz a leg up, which is nice. So’s the movie, but that doesn’t mean it’s very good.
