Gran Torino (2008) MOVIE REACTION!!! FIRST TIME WATCHING!!!

[@Mangolite]

As a Hmong refugee coming to America, watching Clint Eastwood on the big screen and having him be the center of a story revolving around my people was an absolute blast. I took my parents with my aunt and uncle to see it, and they all loved it. This was the first Hollywood film to feature a Hmong-centric story with Hmong actors. BTW, the white kid walking with Sue encountered the black teen is Clint’s son, Scott Eastwood.

[@Subxenox15]

White liberals hate this movie because Clint Eastwood used racial slurs. They tried to ban it on streaming platforms. The actor who plays Tao recently condemned the movie and said he wished he never was in it because of all the "racism".....Woke shit ruins people. They THINK they are defending you and other Hmongs, they think you are sensitive and weak, so they MUST save you from such a dangerous movie...It's so dumb. I'm glad to hear you and your family enjoyed it, it had a very strong message.

[@PapaEli-pz8ff]

I'm 73 years old and I had never heard of Hmong people until I saw this film a few years ago. It prompted me to do some research.I am grateful to Clint, the actors and his entire production company.

[@davidyoung745]

Very well put. You can’t put a price on genuine kindness because there’s just too little of it out there.

[@west-Co_exploration]

If you noticed, everyone in the community was "racist" (i think the better word is tribal). Each group had harsh words for others, but Walt and his friends, who were all from various ethnicities called each other names and poked fun at each other all the while being friends. Walt shows just how much more important actions are than words

[@butkusfan23]

Walt shows words matter too, though. Remember what happened when Thao walked into the barber shop and called the barber an old Italian prick? It didn’t go well. The movie shows us that being strong is important, but it’s also not telling people to go calling each other racial slurs, either. (Not saying you are encouraging the use of slurs. I was just making a point)

[@FloridaMugwump]

​@@butkusfan23 No, you completely missed the point. Our melting pot society was accomplished with gentle teasing ethic humor. The tradition goes back centuries. There is a difference between joking about cultural differences and being mean and insulting about those differences. The PC movement killed that tradition.

[@Kenny-ep2nf]

very good points

[@Soulsphere001]

Walt was racist beyond just words, though. Granted he wasn't KKK racist, so he wasn't the kinda guy who would try to change the laws to harm non-white people or murder them. Overtime he loosened up and learned that the people in his neighbourhood are much better people than he thinks, and he realized that he has a lot in common with them.

[@west-Co_exploration]

@@Soulsphere001 "racist beyond words" as were many of the other groups in the movie. Which was the original point. All over the world people are tribal. They prefer their own culture and even disdain certain other cultures. Everyone has to grow beyond that.

[@yaimavol]

Clint Eastwood is one of the last links to Hollywood's Golden Age still alive. He achieved his legendary status with a series of very popular Westerns in the 60's and went on to make a lot of great films, but what makes him unique is all the work he has done after his looks and youth had faded. He settled into the role of director and producer and has made many great films. You guys have a lot of great films ahead of you discovering the work of Mr. Eastwood.

[@helvete_ingres4717]

I would say he made the actor-director transition better than anyone ever has (not counting ppl like Charlie Chaplin, whose acting was never separate from their directing)

[@FloridaMugwump]

Sorry, but the sixties are not the golden age of Hollywood, that was silver age.

[@simonpatinorton]

Unforgiven rocks!!

[@bobkupi9905]

This is one of my favorite movies. I'm 67 years old and Clint Eastwood has always been one of my favorites. He is over 90 years old and since the 1950's he has starred in 57 movies and countless TV shows. On this movie, he directed it, and was the producer. When he was asked if he wanted professional actors to play the Hmong characters, he refused and had non-union (never acted before) Hmong people literally from around the city cast in the movie for the 1st time in their lives. The movie takes place and was shot in Detroit, literally in the "hood."

[@mimiwiz1]

Underlying theme of Walt's disdain for the lack of respect that his kids and grandkids have, in general, vs the amount of respect that Sue and Tao (and their relatives) have for each other and their traditions. Beautifully done, intermingling guilt, regret, and honor into this modern day drama about acceptance, tolerance, and understanding. Great reaction, thanks for sharing!

[@spikester789]

I think this applied, especially Walt's religious beliefs: John 15:13 Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

[@spikester789]

Have either of you two seen Clint Eastwood in any of his Dirty Harry movies or Million Dollar Baby?

This movie makes me miss my Dad. A member of the greatest generation. He stormed the beach at Normandy, received a Purple Heart, suffered from ptsd, and said what was on his mind unapologetically.

Yes, the generation that "didn't care about political correctness" was the same generation that couldn't watch a married couple sleep in the same bed on TV. Oh, I forgot: that relates to sex, not racism, so that's about "moral values." 🙄 You're comments about PTSD are also factually wrong. Patton was reprimanded for slapping a shell-shocked soldier, and the 1946 film The Best Year's of Our Lives dealt with the issue.

[@sarahwalton2662]

I just noticed (thanks to your review) how when Walt locks Tao in the basement and speaks to him through the screen door it's set up a second (and more raw) confessional.

[@raymondcarroll3876]

Having Tau do those chores, especially ones for others, was Walt’s way of teaching him skills AND having a heart for others.

[@mcgilj1]

Btw: the elder never flamed him.. His own kids and grandkids were disrespectful.. they didn't want to look at him. They wanted to put him away in a home. His sins and the loss of his wife.. His life had lost its flavor. The elder was spot on 100%.

[@davidyoung745]

I grew up surrounded by men like Walt, albeit without the racism, just straight to the point when they decided to talk. Glad you girls enjoyed it. I had to laugh when the little girl was translating for her grandpa asking if they could clear out the wasp’s nest under the porch, and even she called Tao ‘Toad’. Or when the sister was explaining that the mother wanted him to work for Walt and then both of them jumped on Tao to shut him up…and even Walt had to give up in the face of their wrath. And when Walt finally starts accepting the gifts of food from the neighbors. “Wait, is that the chicken dumpling you made for the party…okay.”

[@kevincosta9228]

Bingo! You guys are the only reactors to this movie who got the main point; Walt atoned for the sins that haunted him his whole life by sacrificing his life for this community that reminded him so much of the "enemy" he butchered in Korea. Clint Eastwood is a legend of legends. You need to check out his early stuff; the westerns (The Outlaw Josey Wales is probably the best), the Dirty Harry franchise, and more.

[@scumdog8365]

Let's be honest, his best film by far is Unforgiven.

[@amandagoodtime7751]

One thing I never realized: Walt talks about how the worst part is that he was given a medal for killing a kid he didn’t need to. At the end, he passed the medal to Thao, giving his life for a kid he didn’t need to. Plus, Thao accidentally flagged walt with his M1 Garand, the same rifle he used to kill that kid. And with his death being at the hands of Hmong kids with guns, the fact that he didn’t flinch as he was shot up but just exhaled signifies to me that he came to terms with his past, now coming full circle, and accepting his end with the knowledge that he redeemed himself.

What younger people today don’t seem to understand is that there’s a huge difference between being racist and flipping someone shit. It’s how men used to size other people up by how they reacted. Real men still use this method to weed out useless crybabies from their lives.

I really appreciate the last sentence of your post. You nailed it. I'm 58, and when young men in their 20's hear how men my age talk to to each other, I think the hypersensitive weenies pee in their pants a little bit. The barbershop scenes perfectly illustrate this. We aren't racists, we're ballbusters. We poke fun at our differences, and laugh the whole time.

I owned a 73 Gran Torino with the red stripe paint back in the 80's..They were such a fast, agile, comfortable ride. The one in the movie's gotta be worth 60-70 thousand today! As for Clint, the man was a better actor than guys half his age--The fact he could pull this good a film off with an unknown cast and low budget shows his genius. I knew you guys would love this movie, great reactions! (It was a box-office hit and Oscar-nominated, just another day at the office for Eastwood.)

Grew up in the LA Harbor area in the 70s and 80s. It was a community made up of almost all immigrants, Mexican, Italian, Japanese, Vietnamese, and Cambodian. My generation was the first generation American born. Going to any one of a number of buddy's houses, english was almost never spoken. The racial slurs and insults flew freely, but at the end of the day, we stood together as a community. I had the best upbringing. We took care of our own. When I was up to no good, I would get my ass whupped by anyone of a number of neighbors. They'd call my dad to let him know, and he would say, "Good, send his ass home!" I got "straightened out" both inside and outside the house.

[@mannys4036]

I have seen this movie reviewed over 10 times and this is by far the best review I have seen. I watched Clint Eastwood movies since I was a kid and he is such a natural actor. The scene where he pulls up in his truck and pulls a gun on the guys; the white guy is Clint's son Scott who has a brief part. Your commentary at the end was superb.

But she said meeting him was one of the most genuinely important and impactful things in her life because she's a genuine refugee who fled to America.)

This movie as well as a movie called The Mule, demonstrates well, that people like Walt here have some prejudices but they are based in ignorance not in anger or hate.

Another of one of my favorite movies. It's up there with "The Green Mile" and "The Shining." I first saw this in the movie theater when it was released. Fantastic story, and no one, including me, in the theater saw what was coming when he went to the gang's house. Because of the fact that he knew he was dying, and said that Thao and Sue wouldn't stand a chance with those gangs around, I thought that he was going to try and kill them all, but also felt that he would be shot too. But I did NOT see him sacrificing himself by getting THEM to shoot him, with all the neighbors watching, so that those guys would be put away likely for life. I couldn't help but cry at the end, and I could hear others in the theater crying too. I LOVE THIS MOVIE, and Clint's acting, his directing...YES HE DIRECTED IT, It was the FIRST thing that they showed on the screen when Thao and Daisy were driving away. PLUS he SANG and CO-WROTE the song at the beginning of the credits. FUN FACT: The BOY that was with Sue when the gang was messing with her, and Walt pulled up in his truck, is CLINT EASTWOOD'S SON, SCOTT, he looks a lot like Clint when Clint was young.

Great reaction, and analysis. I've seen this movie lots of times, but it just clicked for me that when someone asked Walt, "What do you do?" - he replied, "I fix things." He certainly fixed some things, didn't he? Again, fantastic reaction, and I subscribed to your channel.

Now you have to watch the spaghetti westerns.. with Eastwood.

[@billymoon4089]

What a great reaction. You guys absolute got this movie nailed.

[@jimmyzee7040]

Clint Eastwood is simply an icon.

[@cog4life]

Great reaction, guys!! As always…😊

[@heidi_d]

So this is the first time I’ve come across you two. I saw your cute, adorable baby faces, and thought “no way will they get this” but holy crap was I wrong! You guys are super smart and mature! Great reaction, and new sub!! 💛xo

The greatest love is to sacrifice your life for the good of your fellow man. What a wild redemption.

[@BigBass-xf5yi]

One of the greatest character arcs of all time. Next to the last samurai and iron man. Such a well done movie. There will never be someone on Eastwoods level again.

Good ad for Stanley Tools. That measuring tape did not break. It layed there, looked at him, and said, "Try again, Zipperhead!"

One of my favorite Clint Eastwood movie. All are great anyway :D

Yall should react to the only 2 comedies that Clint Eastwood Ever Stared in, from the 70s early 80s Era when he was way younger. They are awesome, 1) Every Which Way But Loose And the sequel 2) Any Which Way You Can The only Trailer TypeTeaser I will give is his pet more like best friend is a real life Orangutan Name Clyde. I could not tell you who is the bigger star of these two movies.

Should spend the next 3 months watching his movies in date order....LOVE CLINT!!

[@Claudia9-3]

Thanks for reacting to such an incredible movie!!! ❤❤ greetings from France 🇫🇷

[@nathalieolarte8044]

Love the reaction 🌸❤

[@LadyIarConnacht]

Love Clint Eastwood movies, especially The Good, The Bad and the Ugly and Paint Your Wagon - two of the most entertaining westerns ever made.

[@Kenny-ep2nf]

agreed, I've seen them all over and over again. They don't make movies like that anymore, Clint Eastwood though is still kicking as he recently made a movie called Cry Macho.

You guys should check out some more Clint Eastwood movies. Dirty Harry (1971) and its sequels Magnum Force (1973) and Sudden Impact (1983) as Eastwood's character, Inspector Harry Callahan didn't believe in the "system" of let the law handle it. We were so so used to that besides other Eastwood's movies of a big showdown is going to go down. Those other movies being The Good The Bad And The Ugly to The Outlaw Josey Wales to even Eastwood's Academy Award winning movie Unforgiven (1992). I even thought Walt was going to have that big Eastwood showdown at the end. Nope. Very underrated movie here.

[@WelshAmethystGirl087]

The guy at 14:38 is actually Clint Eastwood son in real life, loved your reaction guys this movie gets me every time

[@WelshAmethystGirl087]

Also the main reason he asked tao to repair other people's houses is because he feels the neighbourhood has gone to ruins since his white neighbours all died or moved and his new neighbours of different ethnicity moved in. He hates looking at the houses falling apart so gets tao to fix them up, he is very racist and never changes the whole movie people just get to know him as he gets to know them and they just accept each other anyway

[@WelshAmethystGirl087]

Also Clint Eastwood is the one singing as tao drives off with daisy

[@januszj444]

That's great reaction to the movie, your analysis is on point as always. I think for people like me who grew up watching Eastwood 's first movies the ending of this one hits even harder as the solution was not what Harry Callahan or the Man with No Name would do

[@user-tb2jy9lu3d]

15:43 That's actually Clint Eastwood's son. 25:07 " *Boy does my ass hurt from all the guys at my construction job!* " 26:00 is in the film because of it's relevance, of course. "Zipperhead" is a derogatory term used in reference to people of Asian descent. It is said to have been coined during the Korean war by frontline troops whom had run over enemy troops in jeeps. The soldiers claimed that the tire tracks from the jeeps left a pattern resembling that of a closed zipper along the corpse. Walt's 'confession' to the priest was just some lighter stuff in life that did bother him, but wasn't exactly a true confession in the sense of everything. Instead, Walt's true confession was actually to Thao just after he was locked in the basement.
