Gran Torino

“This is one of the best film!”

Written on: 16/07/2012 by saintgileshighgate (31 reviews written)

Goog point:Emotional story. Bad point:Last scene is shocking. Basic plot:One old man live alone.He is very Stubborn.He and his family hate each other.One day he helped one asian boy.Then he change his mind. I think this is one of the most emotional film.I have ever seen. I'll never forget last scene. You have to watch this. I recomed you watch you alone. When you watch this film,after that probably you'll recomend this film for another person. (read more)

“Gran Torino is a brilliant film that drapes its story...”

Written on: 08/03/2010 by reviewkitten (280 reviews written)

Gran Torino is a brilliant film that drapes its story around the hardnosed cynical character played by Clint Eastwood. As a lone white figure in a predominately Asian community who has recently lost his wife, Eastwood plays it masterfully as he mourns not only his old life but the old ways and his racist comments stand out.

A good second take on where political correctness and multiculturalism often causes more problems than solutions. In the end, it's just different and you are left to decide if it's good or bad. It's a solid character study. Accurate commentary on generation gap meets culture gap. The result isn't black and white. It's multi-layered and complex, more like real life than Hollywood's ...

“We expected more from Gran Torino and from Clint...”

Written on: 18/03/2009

We expected more from Gran Torino and from Clint Eastwood. It was extremely predictable. The story line seemed like it was written by someone trying to create relevance to a younger, "hip," demographic- but this attempt only reminded me of an after school special. The movie seemed as though it was trying and reaching- but failing over and over. Don't mean to be harsh, but we were really disappointed. And as before mentioned, we expected a lot more.
