Gran Torino February 23, 2010 Mr. K. J. Green (UK) 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!

one of the best films I have seen for a long time, Clint is superb
An error at the start, slightly damages the believability. February 17, 2010 Mr. B. GOOD (London, UK) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
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 February 2, 2010 Matthew Edmondson (Essex, England) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
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 :-)
