Gran Torino

Rating: 9/10 (15 July 2009)

I finally got to see this movie that I rented from the Red Box outside of Walgreens. I work all the time and is currently on medical leave. So I have to picky what I choose to watch.
I have never been disappointed with any of Clint Eastwood movies. I did read an article about the movie before getting it.
I like this movie because it was drama and it was different. It showed how we humans really are, like Walt....and then change heart and cross lines through culture and be friends with others who are totally different. It did show people that have different backgrounds and what kind of environment each of them came from to what made them who they are.
I was surprised at the ending, but if you think about it...it made sense and clever on Walt's part.
The only part I did not care too much for was the priest...kinda got on my nerves because in the movie he would not leave Walt alone. I would have been grouchy too if he kept popping up.
I really liked Walt's old truck he drove, I kept saying Man, I wish I could have that old truck for keepers...lol.
The movie was great! Eastwood did a good job! I would recommended my friends to see it.
