3 1/2 STARS
Tough as nails cinema titan Clint Eastwood has done it again.
Delivering a performance that could make grown men wet themselves, Eastwood directs and stars in Gran Torino (Rated R) as Korean vet Walt Kowalski and is as no nonsense as the characters he has played in the past such as Dirty Harry and The Outlaw Josey Wales.
Set in an urban ghetto of Michigan, the lone soldier has seen it all and has the scars to prove it. However, this battle he marches into that begins with his beloved 1972 Gran Torino, is even more memorable than the first.
Easily one of the best films of his career, with the likes of Million Dollar Baby, the living legend shows he still has the goods and he's not going anywhere.
*Side Note- Beware of racial & strong language throughout the entire film; virgin ears will be destroyed.
