Great to see the master back in action. Clint Eastwood's new movie which he directs and stars in, "Gran Torino" has taken the box office in America by storm and had critics salivating. Take a look at some of the reviews,
The Los Angeles Times also praised Eastwood's performance and credibility as an action hero at the age of 78. Kenneth Turan said of Eastwood's performance, "It is a film that is impossible to imagine without the actor in the title role. The notion of a 78-year-old action hero may sound like a contradiction in terms, but Eastwood brings it off, even if his toughness is as much verbal as physical. Even at 78, Eastwood can make 'Get off my lawn' sound as menacing as 'Make my day,' and when he says 'I blow a hole in your face and sleep like a baby,' he sounds as if he means it.
Eastwood has redefined his career in recent years and has received more acclaim for his directing than his acting but I will always remember him for Dirty Harry, The Man With No Name and all his other tough guy roles.
Here's to Clint, the last great Movie Legend.
