Good story. Overall, the movie was meh. Eastwood's acting carried it; the supporting actors were terrible.

Eastwood was great. Saw it tonight, thought it was very good.

The other actors weren't anything to write home about because for the Hmong characters, he used amateur actors - not professionals.

One of my favorite movies for 2008. Eastwood rocks. The social messages / issues are subtle and real.

4 1/2 out of 5. Turned out to be more of a comedy than I thought it would. Hilarious and very entertaining. Instant classic IMO.

Go see this movie!

But that is kinda the point of the movie.... An overtly racist person has more in common with "gooks" then his own family. The movie was more a statement about the disintegration of the family and values and the priority of "me" in our generation.
