Gran Torino

Clint Eastwood is a B.A.! Even at the ripe old age of 78 he can still kick butt. An angry old man was he who struggled to keep up with the changing times and neighborhood. Kind of a redemptive movie in that you see a veteran of the Korean War come around at the end. And we know all Americans love stories of redemption. Its in our blood or something. I highly recommend this movie just so that you can pick up some good insults to throw out at youngsters when you are an old fogey.
Entertaining the whole way through, comedy is mixed in with Eastwoods character and the storyline is good. You can follow it the whole way through without question and it still keeps you waiting for the next scene. Go see it!
