Gran Torino might not be the movie to watch if you love action or special effects or are looking for a comedy. But if you like watching good acting and well written story line this is a movie for you.
Clint Eastwood is basically in every scene on this movie and he has not lost his touch, he plays a grumpy old man Walt Kowalski who has good values and big heart but does not want to appear as a softie and wants to keep his privacy.
In
the beginning of the movie there is a funeral for Walt’s wife and you get to see his spoiled son who is nothing like his father and their relationship is not close to say the least. Walt lives next to Hmong immigrants and gets to see how his neighbor is pressured to join the gang like his cousins.
Bee Vang plays a good role as Thao Vang Lor opposite of Clint Eastwood on his first major movie role and Ahney Lor is another newcomer playing Sue Lor,
