OK. This movie should get a lesser rating as it is a sort of The Day After/The Bourne Identity mix meets Mad Max. The underlying messages and provocative thought and of course the mesmerizing acting of Denzel Washington save it. Movie critics go too far and give away important themes in movies so I will stop there. Go see it yourself. Many young and middle age soccer moms will be a bit , non-plussed with you for taking them to this movie on date night. This is a serious movie and no lack of action, thrill and drama. It has a couple of odd plot holes. I had no clue Jennifer Beals was in this. When I looked, I was amazed how much she had done since Flashdance in 1983. This movie is a good ride.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Gran Tornino is 13 stars

Gran Tornino is the best movie Hollywood has put out since Juno. Rough edged but spiritual. If you miss all the biblical metaphors among the humor and strife, you missed the real movie here. The movie works because unlike MILK and the junk Hollywood puts out to push a far left agenda, Gran Torino makes you think about all sides and reach your own conclusions. A must see. It proves the Oscars are now meaningless.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
