(Plot)
Walt Kowalski (Eastwood) is an Korean War Veteran living in Detroit who never let go of his hate for the Asian race.

Kowalski gains a bond with Thao as they fight to gain their freedom from this local gang.


(My Thoughts)
I waited to see this film to the last possible moment, I regret not seeing this sooner. I talked to a few friends who saw it before me and they said it sucked. To me this is just not the case, although at times it lacked in some aspects.
