Part of the problem was that Clint Eastwood starred in and directed the movie. So he did what a lot of director/actors do and added a lot of extra scenes for his part. You could have left out 90% of his character development; His learning Galic, his relationship with the priest, his hatred of canned keylime pie seemed forced. These things did not advance the plot and weren't needed. They made the movie way to long.
You had enough stuff to understand his motivation based off his past with Morgan Freeman and his estranged daughter.
