I overheard a couple of people talking about this movie at work today. I didn’t hear any specific opinions about the movie but the fact that I heard the movie mentioned, surprised me. So I thought I’d write a small review.
I haven’t reviewed a movie in a while. I figured, “Why not? People need to have my view push upon them!” Here we go.
Clint Eastwood is getting old. And if your a fan of Brian Haley, it won’t make a difference. I looked up Brian Haley on IMDB to get a “I-remember-him-from-that-show” reference but, he’s been on a lot of random crap. I only really remember him from his Nazi marching stand-up on Caroline’s Comedy Hour. OK, enough about Haley.
If you like Gran Torino’s, you won’t see too many scenes with one. Why would you like this movie? I don’t know. The story moves a little slow. There’s no surprise twists. But if you enjoy old man racism, you’ll love Gran Torino. Everyone once in a while Eastwood will drop a racist one-liner to make me chuckle.
Either you’ll like or hate this movie. I’m not sure what the barometer is. I thought it was decent. I’ll give this movie close to a B- equivalent, weather that be “3-1/2 stars” or “wait for it on cable”.
