    Brilliant, 2010-02-17 one of the best films I have seen for a long time, Clint is superb
    An error at the start, slightly damages the believability., 2010-02-17 An unforgivable error gets the film off to a shaky start. Early in the film, Eastwood's character Walt Kowalski is visited, several times, by a young (27) year old Priest. After addressing Walt as 'Walt' instead of Mr Kowalski, the priest does not get the message when he is corrected. A while later, seated with friends in a bar, the priest once again approaches Kowalski. 'Hello Walt' are his first words. Kowalski would not have taken this. The priest is taking this man for a fool and yet, the next scene involves Kowalski softening and agreeing to talk.
In general, this is a deeply emotional film, with echoes of current conflicts. Will the current war produce many thousand of damaged people, like Walt.?
A slightly long-winded, underweight plot is made up for by impeccable acting and cinematography (almost sepia in appearance) makes this look incredibly stylish and real.
Yes, it's a fairly predictable, slightly tired plot, 'person hates another, but something happens to bring them together' but it's still a good movie.
    A TERRIFIC FILM TO WATCH, 2010-02-21 IF YOU HAVE THE CHANCE TO SEE THIS FILM, THEN GO AHEAD, YOU WON'T REGRET IT, IT'S FIRST RATE.
    BORING !, 2010-03-16 I have been a Clint Eastwood fan for over 40 years. This is the most boring film I have ever seen with or without him. Watched it an didn't even pass it on to my family, it went straight in the bin ! Absolute rubbish.
    Gran Torino, 2010-02-23 Well Clint must be getting on a bit and it shows, but he still has that special something that makes this film worth the watching time. Enjoy!
