GRAN TORINO...starring clint eastwood
« on: January 09, 2009, 10:28:57 PM »
hello fellow chrome domes:  we just watched the movie..."gran torino" with legendary actor/director clint eastwood.  i give this movie the big "thumbs up".  matter of fact... imo... i vote this movie as "best movie" of the year.  the story was well-written, directed, & acted.  it doesn't have the gr8 special effects like a super sci-fi action movie but the story-line is incredible. 

if U plan on watching a movie this new year... i recommend that U watch this one.  i promise  that U won't regret it.  tell your family, friends, & co-workers about "gran torino".  if U watch this one... U will definitely agree with me. O0

Yes, my wife mentioned the other day that she wanted to go see the movie. It will probably be awhile before it comes here though.

Thanks for the review bro.  I have been wanting to see it too.   I have heard it is true vintage Eastwood.

My daughter and I are going to see this moving tonight, so I'll have to post again once we've gone to see it.

My daughter and I went to see this movie last night.  It really causes one to examine their presuppositions and prejudices.
