Gran Torino

A young Hmong boy is being recruited into a gang of hoodlums. He is caught in the act during his initiation and his life turns to a different course when he befriends his angry neighbor.

Clint Eastwood is a bitter racist old man. You can tell he misses the days of old when the neighborhood is more colorful and diverse than back in his hayday.

Pretty much every Asian racial term is spilled from Dirty Harrys mouth by the first half hour. I love it because old wrinkly men (any race) can pretty much do and say whatever the hell they want with the excuse being they're old and senile.

Pretty much everything he says in the movie is pure gold. He's a dangerous angry old bastard and if I encountered him I don't know if I'd crack up or shit my pants because an old fart called me a pussy and wanted to fight.

I don't want to get into crazy details as to the events that take place, but I was interested the whole time through and wanted I see what was going to happen with the gang bangers and Dirty Harry.

Just know I highly recommend it.

Also, it's probably a coincidence or something but his name is the movie is Walter Kowalski. Wrestling fans know that name as Walter "Killer" Kowalski.
