Gran Torino

Just got out of this movie and it was amazing, the kind of film where you feel like you've been kicked in the gut (in a good way). It sucks you in and ultimately has a great message of redemption. HUGE warning, though - alot of language, quite a bit of it racial slurs (Eastwood's character is in the vein of Melvin Udall from As Good As It Gets). Another thing you would never expect from the previews - it's pretty much a comedy for the first hour. The audience laughed so hard we couldn't hear some of the lines. Will post a full review soon.

Your Review is pretty dead on.

Good movie.

I heard it was the greatest movie ever and Eastwood is the Messiah.

Good movie. A lot of racial slurs and language, but "needed" to relay the message of the movie. Not having the slurs or language would have been like a soldier in a war movie while in a fox hole with bullets flying over head saying, "Golly, this is bad."
