Default Gran Torino *no spoilers please*

I was going to give a quick review, but in light of this being one of the WORST movies ever made I will just say it sucks. Clint Eastwood sucked, all the supporting actors sucked, it was like a 5th grade play. The acting was so **** poor, I felt like the whole movie they were reading from their script. The idea of the movie was decent, but the execution was **** poor. And the whole gun pointing thing he does in the preview gets so old and lame. DO NOT waste your time, I am sorry i paid for it.

I watched it the other day (on DVD) so I didn't have to pay for it. I thought it was a good movie. Not as good as the hype is, but ok to say the least.

You're the first person I've heard say it sucked. Hell even rotten tomatoes gave it a good review and all they do is **** on most movies.

I liked it, I thought clint was awesome, I found the end disapointing/too artsy. And Tao to be the worst actor I've ever seen. But it kept glued to the screen till the end

I loved it. Everyone I know liked or loved it. Watch it for yourselves and you will never take advise again from the people that didn't like this movie.
