The Official Gran Torino Movie Thread...

[knowledgebones72]

MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNN

I'm not tryin to see any movie about some old racist White dude going to battle against the dangerous minorities who turned his once beautiful whiteneighborhood into a brown cesspool of crime.

This sounds like it's gonna be to old racist white people what Pineapple Express was to weed smokers.

Just a bunch of old white people in the theatre screamin, "YEA!!! This is his neighborhood!! Damn foreigners!!!" at the screen every 5 minutes untilone of 'em strokes out.

I know it's Oscars time when DvdScr are out.

I enjoyed this movie, some parts seemed pretty ridiculous but overall another great Clint Eastwood movie.

 

[rawsheed]

Looks like I need to check this out. Funny how they named the movie and it's about asians... "I see what they did there"

 

[xbraveheartx]

It's hilarious what Walt calls the boy throughout the movie.

I swear he called him a pusscake, a damn PUSSCAKE.

i thought the same as the poster above.. was no where near horrid imo


horrid? NO... thats y he is only nominated to win a golden globe for best film score cus of this movie... Grade A movie IMO. Clint is hilarious and a bad mofoin this movie... never ending racial slurs was classic. I couldnt stop laughing when he wouldnt stop calling the girl "yum yum" and the boy"toad".

My thoughts exactly. The racism was pretty funny and Clint is great at playing the old tough guy. They could have casted someone better for"Toad," he annoyed me everytime he was on screen. Pretty decent Clint movie. Million Dollar Baby and Mystic River were much much better though.

 

[sharpiepoint]

I need to see this

 

[5tan]

WOW, this movie is something else...

Outside of the racial comments and indifferences, its really a touching movie.

Glad I took my friend's advice and watched it.

 

[livemyreality]

I just watched the movie and yes there were a lot of racial comments but the character Eastwood portrayed was great. It is a very good film and for those whosaw the film, were you surprised with the ending? Also, the gang members reminded me of some people who I went to high school with. It was pretty humorous.

 

[cwrite78]

movie is hilarious

DVD Scr the new hustle got me taxin em

Anyway GREAT MOVIE 8.5/10

 

[gusyouout]

Not too bad. To tell you the truth I was hoping for more, but I expected worse. So I was pleased and outside of some parts that seemed more humorous thanserious I enjoyed the movie.

 

[mexicansoul]

clint had me dying with all the racial slurs. And toads cousin stayed in them red shorts. Dirty Harry went out like a G though.

Good Movie.

 

[pdm 87]

This movie had better be nominated for best original song thats played during the credits, so out of left field.

 

[itsaNYthing]

I loved this movie.

All the jokes had me DYING!

 

[markymark25]

pretty good movie i guess. Looking at it for entertainment, it was pretty good, the ending was good, nice how they lead you to it but you could catch on whatwas going to happen right before it did, the ending was good minus one major thing.
looking at it through another eye, it was pretty bad. I won't say much b/c I know whatever I will say will not be well received by many, if not all, of NT,let's just say it borders along the lines of what knowledgebones said, just a with more analyzation after watching.


edit: anyone notice during the scene where clint reads his horoscope he kinda sounded like yoda?
