    Entertaining Drama

    Clint Eastwood directs and stars in this movie about an ex soldier living with regrets and disappointment after his wife dies and he tries to mind his business and lead an uneventful life until the neighbors move in and the son of the neighbor tries to steal his 1978 Gran Torino. This movie does contain racial slurs so don’t get easily offended but it’s a great story that sure to leave even the tuffest critic in tears.

    Great movie but this blu ray edition features botched audio channels and mixing

    Gran Torino is a great movie, the issue is, apparently they botched the mixing and/or mastering with the blu ray edition, which I found out later is a known issue. I screened the film on my state of the art Onkyo HT system and gigantic Samsung HDTV the other night, and it looked phenomenal but the dialogue sounded out of phase or too low, and the overall volume was too low. I found out via an Amazon reviewer later that they had the same exact issue. I checked the whole system and tried the DTS option, was louder but not much better. Center dialogue speaker was not even utilized. But my system is working just fine, as a screening of TITANIC on blu ray proved the other day. So 5 stars for the movie, but only 2 for the audio quality which was botched. I'd seen this on DVD about five years ago and that sounded fine. I also screened Matrix Resurrection last night, on DVD, and that sounded 5 stars great. I wish they would test the mixes of a lot of these discs before sending them out to release, although I've rarely had this issue with blu-ray discs.

  • Excellent Movie in sealed, original packaging.

    Exactly what it says on the page. Gran Torino is a great movie about manhood, culture, and sacrifice, and this is the ideal way to own a physical copy.
