Covers a lot of ground as it rolls: religion, the toll of war, mortality, what it means to be a man.

Gran Torino is not Eastwood's best film as director or actor but it perfectly encapsulates his onscreen persona and his brilliant directorial career.

This would be a fitting conclusion to a long and illustrious career.

[Its] problems cannot be ignored.

Twenty minutes in, we know Walt is eventually going to give the car to the kid. The only question is how.

If Mt. Rushmore were to make a movie, it would probably look a lot like a Clint Eastwood movie.

This is another Eastwood's deconstruction of his career, and it doesn't give anything else in the movie any room to breathe.

Though the film feels like a requiem, Kowalski's heart is still defiantly beating.

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.

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.

A brilliant commentary on a lot of earlier Clint Eastwood roles.

The comedy-drama on release is actually a rather wise, insightful exploration of family and friendship, violence and vengeance.
