Mind changing experience

Rating: 9/10 (21 February 2013)

OK so I bought Gran Torino 2 weeks ago and just watched it this week. I put off watching it because well i thought it would be just another action drama with no substance and a slow pace that can put you to sleep (not to say that i watch dramas for heart pounding gut busting action because that wouldn't make any sense) but some dramas are just not interesting and deep enough to keep my attention. I am pleased to say it wasn't after just 2 minutes into the movie i was sucked in the story is incredibly relatable and true. the acting is superb. the message heart warming. the emotional appeal is astounding. the camera work is amazing. For 5 years now forrest gump has been my favorite movie of all time and has just been replaced. Gran Torino is the GREATEST movie i have ever watched. This is truly a masterpiece.
