I'll wait to watch it on DVD if it is a movie I'm pretty indifferent about.

It just isn't than enjoyable, for me anyway, watching a movie on a tiny little screen with inferior sound, picture, etc. Maybe I'm just too old school.

Great movie, definitely go see it, or download it like I did.

I can't wait for the blu-ray release...

Everyone like the ending? (NO SPOILERS PLEASE)

I will be really impressed if your screen is bigger.

Unless my search is broken, Gran Torino hasn't been discussed here and I'm wondering why.

It's pure comedy. Basically 120 minutes of Clint Eastwood using racial slurs and generally being the grouchiest old man on the planet.

Racist review here: http://filmdrunk.uproxx.com/?p=8697

I give it 5 stars. Comments?

DougLikesBMW · 01-23-2009, 09:57 PM

Search is indeed broken

...there was a thread about it the other week.

jlaw · 01-23-2009, 10:01 PM

Balls. It comes up with no matches when I search this forum. Oh well.

danchandroos · 01-23-2009, 10:03 PM

Razzy · 01-23-2009, 10:23 PM

i like how he always pulls out his hand and pretends to shoot guys.
especially when he pulls up to the black guys and is pointing his hand at them like a gun.

"wtf old man, are you crazy?"

i laughed pretty good at lots of parts. awesome movie!

aut0sh0cker · 01-23-2009, 11:03 PM

Thug: What you lookin' at old man?
Walt Kowalski: Ever notice how you come across somebody once in a while you shouldn't have fucked with? That's me.

Walt Kowalski: Oh, I've got one: A Mexican, a Jew, and a colored guy go into a bar. The bartender looks up and says, "Get the fuck out."
