Anyone else go see this movie yet? I saw it last night, and found it was an amazing experience. It's one of those movies that will affect you if you "get it". I'm not throwing out any spoilers, or giving away the ending, but do recommend it. This movie got me just like Million Dollar Baby did. Another homerun for Clint Eastwood. Comments?

The Torino does look sweet too...

Great movie. Some parts were actually funny. A perfect example of how good an actor Clint Eastwood really is.

One of my favorites, I hardly ever watch a movie more then once but I would make an exception for this one.

I can't wait to see the movie myself, just don't tell me it ends any thing like Million Dollar Baby. I still have to take depression meds after what that did to me.

I loved the movie, but it was a tough one for me to watch as we went to it the day after my grandmother's funeral. First 30 seconds of the movie had me misty-eyed.

Filmed entirely on location right here in metro Detroit. A friend of mine was an extra, but he didn't make it into the final cut. Since the tax incentives went into place for Hollywood they've been filming out here like crazy. It was just announced yesterday that there are 2 studios that are opening up here. One is in the old Pontiac Centerpointe Campus that I worked in once that used to house our Truck Vehicle Development Center. A special effects studio just bought the old temporary MGM Grand casino building downtown after MGM vacated it for their permenant site.

If I lose my job here I might go knocking on their door to see if they need a CGI guy.

One of the best movies I have seen in a long time. I just watched it again with my dad. Clint reminds of my grandfather in this movie.

I hadn't seen the trailer for the movie before I went to the theater, but I was pleasantly surprised none-the-less. I highly recommend it. Clint did a fantastic job.
