Review For Gran Torino | |
| Though the film feels like a requiem, Kowalski's heart is still defiantly beating. Christine Champ-Film.com The comedy-drama on release is actually a rather wise, insightful exploration of family and friendship, violence and vengeance. Geoff Andrew-Time Out A brilliant commentary on a lot of earlier Clint Eastwood roles. Richard Roeper-Richard Roeper.com If Mt. Rushmore were to make a movie, it would probably look a lot like a Clint Eastwood movie. Jonathan F. Richards-Film.com It is familiar, but only to a point. Suddenly, that point is past and much more serious questions come up, questions of responsibility, of vengeance, of the efficacy of blood for blood. Kenneth Turan-Los Angeles Times This is among his lesser recent movies, which doesn't diminish its likability. In fact, it's pleasing to see Eastwood working the middle of the emotional register for a change. Peter Rainer-Christian Science Monitor This is another Eastwood's deconstruction of his career, and it doesn't give anything else in the movie any room to breathe. Will Leitch-Deadspin Covers a lot of ground as it rolls: religion, the toll of war, mortality, what it means to be a man. Neil Pond-American Profile Twenty minutes in, we know Walt is eventually going to give the car to the kid. The only question is how. Kelly Vance-East Bay Express This would be a fitting conclusion to a long and illustrious career. Mike Edwards-What Culture Gran Torino is not Eastwood's best film as director or actor but it perfectly encapsulates his onscreen persona and his brilliant directorial career. Thomas Caldwell-Cinema Autopsy Gran Torino is less a sleek hybrid than a multigenre pileup. Mark Jenkins-NPR.org Even this one-trick predictable pony is worth seeing when Eastwood is riding. Jean Lowerison-San Diego Metropolitan 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. Karina Montgomery-Cinerina Un film posé et d'une grande intelligence émotionnelle qui va au-delà des barrières des croyances ou des origines pour défendre une tradition tout simplement humaine. Jean-François Vandeuren-Panorama Take it for what it is: An old guy who gives himself one last juicy role as the flawed, haunted anti-hero, an old guy who's done this so often that he isn't above making himself look silly as well as heroic (he even croons the title song over the ending c Matt Soergel-Florida Times-Union If this is the end of the road for the Man With No Name, it's a memorable, winning way for him to go out. Sonny Bunch-Washington Times Less a great film than a fascinating personal testament Fernando F. Croce-CinePassion Though Eastwood is not above self-deprecation and, here, downright silliness, Gran Torino is no orangutan movie. Leo Goldsmith-Reverse Shot Like a new driver learning to operate a manual transmission, director Eastwood's awkward shifting of tones makes the lurching Gran Torino a frustrating ride. Mark Pfeiffer-Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema Clint gets into surly senior power, and while flexing those rejuvenated geriatric muscles, but mostly verbal and otherwise. Though what a tongue lashing, poised to give those Superbad youngsters a run for their money. Prairie Miller-NewsBlaze Clint Eastwood has become one of Hollywood's best and most dependable filmmakers. John J. Puccio-Movie Metropolis ... Starts as one thing, then becomes something else entirely. Greg Maki-Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) It's as vigorous and entertaining a feature as you could expect from a 78-year-old filmmaker star. Gerald Peary-Boston Phoenix 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.
