Gran Torino...

Wow, Just wow.

What an amazing movie. I'm at a loss for words. Has anyone else seen Eastwood's latest masterpiece? What do you guys think about it? Anyone out there that didn't like it? Why?

Well, maybe you should develop your thoughts a bit and post about this in the Reviews section. Just a suggestion, as I haven' seen the movie myself.

All I've heard its the best movie evar so long as your able to tolerate racial slurs, and if I can stand Xbox live I bet I can handle this. I plan on seeing it this weekend, hope it's as good as you say.

Yeah, I might do that. I'm not much of a film critic, but if I was able to formulate a coherent essay on Uncharted and then a more in-depth review on The Bourne Conspiracy...I guess I could give this a shot. If I do, it'll be tomorrow. Its late now, and I like to revel in how awesome things are before I actually write anything solid down =P

To the other post, yeah...racial slurs are aplenty, but it fits the movie so perfectly you won't mind them at all.

I really want to see this. I've only seen the posters, not seen any reviews for it, and am walking in completely unbiased without any expectations. I can't wait.

It was hilariously racist.

 

[Lancer723]

Great Movie, Eastwood's best movie IMO, and yes ive seen his older stuff.

 

[Mr.Pandah]

I was laughing every time he made some sort of racist comment, it fit the role of his character so perfectly that I couldn't help it. Next to his Spaghetti Westerns and the Dirty Harry''s, I'd say this was one of his best acts AND directing ever.

The movie was just fulfilling to say the least.

extremely good movie but it was different then what i thought it was going to be from the previews

 

[Arcyde]

i thought it was just so amazing and probably his best movie

How so? Thought the gang was going to be more prevalent?

Spoiler: spoiler

Or that it was gonna be an all out shoot 'em up?

^^ Not really a spoiler unless of course you have a brain and know that this isn't what its really about.

 

[Mr.Pandah]

I didn't care for Eastwood's singing at the end.

Haha If I had to come up with some sort of gripe about the film...It would probably be that.

Though I know better, a like to think of this as Dirty Harry: The retired years

The gruff voice definitely was more than intended to give that hint I think. =P I guess thats why you know better.

Yes the previws focused more on the action portion of the film

 

[Mr.Pandah]

Ah, but thats typical of movie trailers. I was actually happier there wasn't more of it. It wouldn't fit in my eyes, ya know?

 

[xGhost86x]

I loved this movie. I wanted to smack the skin off his grand daughter. No respect...

Everyone agreed when I said out loud, "No respect for their elders anymore...stupid *****."

I could have done without the entire first half; it was slow, boring, the acting was terrible except for Eastwood (who was only good because he did a decent "grizzled old grumpy racist"), and the parts that were supposed to be funny just fell flat for me. Also, the singing could have been nixed. The second half was good, though. I felt Slumdog Millionaire was a better and more enjoyable movie.
