Clint Eastwood makes the movie a treat to watch

Rating: Null/10 (9 April 2011)

You don't have to be an Eastwood fan, or even have seen any of his movies, to know what to expect from this performance. He plays a grumpy man who wants nothing to do with his neighbors or anyone else. Whether the movie explains if he was like this before his wife's death, I don't remember. It's been a couple years since I saw the movie (I review some movies with a vague memory). Eventually, he warms up, especially to one of the Korean neighbors, whom he takes under his wing. It's kind of like a dramatic "Grumpy Old Men", only without one of the men. The ending is sad and will shock you, especially if you can relate to Eastwood's character.
*** out of ****
