I enjoyed this film, but it had a few flaws.

Rating: 8/10 (6 May 2009)

I am a big Clint Eastwood fan and i enjoyed Gran Torino, although it had a few flaws with the acting.
So basically it's about a retired Korean war veteran called Walt Kowalski who's wife has just died and is living by himself. He hates his kids, grand kids and his neighbors who are Chinese. He is also pretty racist and is feisty.
The main story is about his next door neighbor 'Thao' who has a cousin in a gang and they force Thao into stealing Walt's 1972 vintage Gran Torino. Walt then catches someone in his shed and then finds out it was him. Then one night the gangs try to take Thao away because he failed. Walt then comes out and that is when the one man war begins.
To sum up it is a good film, but the acting from Thao is a bit dodgy.
