Gran Torino (23 February 2010)
Well Clint must be getting on a bit and it shows, but he still has that special something that makes this film worth the watching time. Enjoy!

A TERRIFIC FILM TO WATCH (21 February 2010)
IF YOU HAVE THE CHANCE TO SEE THIS FILM, THEN GO AHEAD, YOU WON'T REGRET IT, IT'S FIRST RATE.

Brilliant (17 February 2010)
one of the best films I have seen for a long time, Clint is superb

An error at the start, slightly damages the believability. (17 February 2010)
An unforgivable error gets the film off to a shaky start. Early in the film, Eastwood's character Walt Kowalski is visited, several times, by a young (27) year old Priest. After addressing Walt as 'Walt' instead of Mr Kowalski, the priest does not get the message when he is corrected. A while later, seated with friends in a bar, the priest once again approaches Kowalski. 'Hello Walt' are his first words. Kowalski would not have taken this. The priest is taking this man for a fool and yet, the next scene involves Kowalski softening and agreeing to talk.

In general, this is a deeply emotional film, with echoes of current conflicts. Will the current war produce many thousand of damaged people, like Walt.?

A slightly long-winded, underweight plot is made up for by impeccable acting and cinematography (almost sepia in appearance) makes this look incredibly stylish and real.

Yes, it's a fairly predictable, slightly tired plot, 'person hates another, but something happens to bring them together' but it's still a good movie.

amazing (02 February 2010)
I can't understand why this movie has generated several '1 stars' and bad comments. This truly is an incredible piece of film making and i can honestly say this is my favourite ever film. Great characters, excellent heart warming story and actually very funny in places. Definately recommended to anyone who enjoys movies :-)
