This film features the return of Eastwood as a grumpy old-man who hates anybody around him and life gets worse for him as a family of Koreans move in next door. The cousin of the family is part of one of the street gangs that go and torment the family most especially the young son Toan.Throughout the movie Eastwood takes a liking to the family and helps them against the street gangs. This film would have been nothing without Eastwood, his acting was funny, great, and it hit a little too close to home, especially when i visit my grandfather. Eastwood was the reason this movie is getting so much exposure, he acts like the tough old bad guy that we remembered and loved. However, in this film Eastwood is the only good thing other than that: the casting and acting is horrible, and they keep every scene with Eastwood.The whole film i was laughing cause I myself can be racist at some points and everything Eastwood said was racist, sometimes things I haven't even heard of. The film will go down in history cause many have said this will be his last film if so it was a great career and it was a great movie to end on. A well deserved 10 out of 10.

I agree with your review; Clint Eastwood really was the perfect actor for that role.
