Gran Torino

I didnt like it. There were no robots, it had a plot, and it had good acting. What a waste of my money.

One of the worst movies I've seen in a while.

Clint was good and the script was subpar, and it was the WORST CAST EVER!!!!!!!!!! Toad and his family were quite possibly the worst actors in major motion picture ever. The relationship with the priest was stupid and entirely contradictory from one scene to another and was almost as dumb as Eastwood's relationship with his family. So the guy befriends a kid who tried to steal his car but has no relationship whatsoever with his kids or grandchildren? Makes tons of sense. His son has a good job and he and his wife seem to be very decent people yet the have their kids wear midriff shirts, bootie shorts and football jerseys to their grandmother's funeral????

I want the 2 hours of my life that were wasted watching this crap back. Horrible, horrible film.

Great movie. Loved it.

Just saw it. What a great movie, probably my favorite Eastwood movie along with Unforgiven. Everybody who won't see it based on the trailer--or because you think Eastwood has played the same shallow character for the last 40 years--is really missing out.

Agree completely. Great show. Might not have been as good if Clint hadn't nailed the character completely.

Thanks for making me watch this people.

Wow. Wow. Wow. This movie was good. This is the best movie I've seen since No Country For Old Men. Clint nailed this character.

Just watched this movie with my wife. I loved it, my wife cried at the end.

Might have the most racial dialogue I heard in a movie in a long time, but it wasn't offensive, I just found it incredibly amusing coming from Eastwood playing the grumpy old man to perfection.

Great movie. Not always what you expect. That helps to make it great!

I just watched this again, I saw it in the theater when it came out, it actually brought a tear to my eye.

Wow. I'm really hoping you were trying to be funny because if not, the point of this movie flew way over your head. The reason why he came to like Toad's family is because they showed him something his own family didn't; respect. As for his relationship with the priest, that grew closer as the movie went along. I actually thought that was a subtle but great part of the movie. The real horror was this was snubbed by the Oscars.
