Pass the Popcorn

Grand Tarino follows a racist old Korean War vet as he reflects on his past after the death of his wife. Living in a neighborhood full of Asian immigrants and surrounded by senseless violence, Clint Eastwood's character, Walt, finds it difficult to keep to himself as the situation deteriorates around him.

As many have already mentioned this movie is basically Dirty Harry years after retirement. Even though Clint starts the film off with some heavy-handed acting and the plot takes some time to develop, I was fully on board by the end. The supporting cast was mediocre at best but anything dealing with revenge and Clint Eastwood is worth a go. I particularly liked how the script didn't rely on the easy solution to the presented conflict. And the comedic aspects were unexpected but appreciated.

So grab a six pack, gut it up through the first 25 minutes, and enjoy the rest.
