Gran Torino (2008)

Reviewed on Feb 14, 2009

Eastwood certainly takes his time telling a story. In the first hour and a half, a zipperhead does some gardening. The last few minutes have some drama, but they’re not worth the excruciating setup. Desperate to find the hint of humor that would have made it tolerable, I tried my…
