Gran Torino
Re: Gran Torino
looks very good. on the to see list for sure.
Re: Gran Torino
It was pretty good. I don't think its worth best picture nods, but it is definitely a must see!
Re: Gran Torino
Liked it a lot. Funny seeing it with a bunch of blue collar old white guys in the audience and hearing them chuckle.
Clint Eastwood will the be the first actor that I will truly lament the passing of when he finally dies. (not counting people who died before their time).
Re: Gran Torino

what :shock: :lol:
Re: Gran Torino
best movie i've seen since no country for old men.
Re: Gran Torino
I found it to be quite long. But the time constraint really wasn't an issue with me. i found myself really sinking into the film...too bad it didn't end the way I was hoping, but oh well.
Re: Gran Torino
good story but i think the acting by the other cast members was a bit piss poor. Eastwood did well, but everyone else's acting was just shit imo. in my eyes, that really hurt the film--felt like someone was taking their fingernails and scraping it down a chalkboard.
Re: Gran Torino
Im really looking forward to seeing this film now. Most comments i'v heard/read sound really good.

Well that's his way of the studio giving him 100MIL for a movie and him hiring a bunch of unknowns so he doesn't have to pay them as much, and therefore he get's to pocket even more $$.;)
Re: Gran Torino
Good movie, felt like I was watching the lifetime channel at times because the scenes did not transition very well...however the story line is good and reminded me of my grandfather. I personally think No Country for Old Men is a far superior film, but we are all of course going to have different interpretations and opinions. I give it a 7
Re: Gran Torino
well worth seeing this film. took about 20 mins to get going. i was pleased they didnt wrap everything up nicely. clint was fantastic.
(yes, I'm 6 months late)
Re: Gran Torino
Saw this last night. 8/10. This movie kind of just sucks you in. Good character development throughout.
Re: Gran Torino
It's an interesting deconstruction of his Dirty Harry type of character that made his career. For that I admire it, but it isn't one of Eastwood's best.
