After the clumsy beginning, the deft writing and excellent acting has so sunk you into your relationship with Walt and Sue and Thao that by the end, I loved this movie, but it took a while to snag me.

Gran Torino is a smorgasbord of Eastwood's skills as filmmaker -- the good, the bad, and the ugly -- and how well you digest it will depend on your appetite.
Apr 21, 2009
Un film menor en la carrera de Clint Eastwood, pero no por ello falto de interés o poco entretenido. Si efectivamente se trata de la despedida de Eastwood como actor, entonces se trata de una despedida digna y sentida.
