Re: Gran Torino

It was a great film only hindered by (as Miir said) the supporting cast. The girl who played Sue had quite a few moments where the lines felt extremely forced. Still, she didn't have shit on the actor behind Thao. That was one of the worst performances all year. When Walt locked Thao up in his home ...

While I agree for the most part, I absolutely loved the Kingdom of Heaven DC, and I thought Bloom was fine in it.

I hope the characters the Orlanda Bloom and Keira Knightley played aren't in the movie then. Inconsistencies in who plays characters throughout a series of films sucks. Given the way part III ended and the 10 year reunion, it wouldn't surprise me if neither character returned at all. I can't say I'...

Saw the film in IMAX today. Really enjoyed it. My only real gripe about the movie is that Chris Nolan needs to get aquainted with some editors.
