"as long as he doesnt put any idiot flames on it".....thats fair 🤣🤣🤣
It's more accurate to say this is the R-rated version of Up.
accurate
Lmaoooo real
hahahaha cant unsee it now.
Wait a damn minute

Not a racist at all in movie. He has opinions based on a life of war experiences and seeing his countries social morals and fabric being destroyed.
A movie so awesome it inspired a whole show in Spain called Wrong Side Of The Tracks with the same archetype character.
Did you guys know that it was just a title bait?
Lmao waattt 😂
Nah he was pretty racist 💯💯💯 the point of the movie is his experience with Asians allowed him to overcome his earlier ignorance & see them as the human beings they are 💯💯💯
Amen
The title is ridiculous. A racist person would never die for someone they are racist against. Now, if you want to call him prejudiced, thats more fair.
a racist person can change into a non racist. that’s the point of the movie, snowflake
clickbait he did it so you could click on the vid
Its literally part of the movie and the entire point of the movie is that he's racist at the start and ends up dying for them. Shut up with the woke defensive sht. Its literally the movies plot.
@@zyourzgrandzmaz it's not though it's just how you heard it by the recap he just can't come to the fact that the people he fought against in war are now living beside him
Racism is prejudice. It's in the definition.
I didn't notice his daughter-in-law wearing his wife's pearls at the funeral. I know he mentioned it later but missed Walt looking at them on her. Despite their relationship being bad but they were just terrible disrespectful people.
A Vet. Haunted by his past. He knows he is dying. Yeah. Don't care how tough you THINK you are, that is not a man you should dream of fucking with. Believe me....I know. Just hope i can make some sort of difference in someone's life like he did. Respect.
wow. so cool
a man like that would not make tough guy youtube comments
Nahh, it's more of his way to show some appreciation of the character, I suppose.@@johnathancarter3726
"Yo clint none of this is in the script"
he wrote the script....
Get off my LAWN ... LEGENDARY quote
Honestly this movie deserves a 10/10 rating it's just that good
This movie is probably the only movie that gave us a huge shoutout. I am forever grateful for Clint Eastwood and I cannot forgive Bee Vang for lying about Clint being a racist and using this role to say racist stuff back in 2020. Bee ain't a part of us, what an idiot he was.
When did that happened?
It's always trendy to claim everyone is racist. I could see Clint having been a racist some decades back, but I can't see him as BEING racist when this came out.
Walt is using an M-1 Garand semi automatic Rifle with an 8 Round Magazine.
Clip it is a clip
@@S.T.A.L.K.E.R-b6itechnically the rifle has an internal magazine that fits 8
Its an internal magazine fed with 8 round block clip, so yes clip is applicable in this context. Same way a Kar98k or a Mosin is fed with stripper clips into an internal magazine.
@@noahyates8614 yes but the block clip is not included in the rifle, the original comment refers to the rifle having an 8 round magazine, not using 8 round block clips
Prove it
Me expecting him to call up his old squad and go after the gang like he was back in Korea
i grew up when this movie came out and its one that i will show my kids when they are old enough to understand, at the time i was too young to understand his pain and sacrifice. I still remember the feeling of him getting lit up, man I didnt expect it and when his will was read was such a great ending
This story is about people from that generation. They were hard people with soft hearts. Generous and caring.
Not like people today soft and hard hearted. Selfish and uncaring.
lol
exactly
What’s why the movie is so great
Yes people from a racist and sexist generation, so caring
Who fought for your rights. I would guess you didn’t watch the movie. This generation lived through the Great Depression fought Nazi Germany, imperialist Japan and Fascist Italy. Yes the main character was a Korean War veteran. Still from the same period. This group passed civil rights legislation. If you watched the movie you would see the main character is woke more than anything I see from young adults today. We destroyed our youth of today by telling them their special. 8 Billion people on the planet, that’s how special every individual is.
People say Zuko had the best character development, nah Walt Kowalski got him beat
Awesome movie watched it few times ... Gran Torino
OK, the grandmother when it comes to her, you say that she’s actually judging Walt because he’s prejudice, but that’s technically not the case. the reason I say that is because she literally judges everybody like she has no respect for anybody. I mean, yeah she’s also prejudiced too. If you’ve read the translation when you first see her sitting down, she is spewing racism at him. Not to mention, she even belittles her own grandson despite the fact that he doesn’t have a mentor and you know he’s just not sure what to do with his life. Along with taking orders from his sister while whoever she was talking to states that Thao well know the meaning of responsibility which she completely rushes off like that’s not possible.
I'm Hmong, and confirm, she was being racist. A lot of older people are no matter their race or ethnicity. Like how Walt's racism was shaped by his war experiences, hers were probably similarly formed. Someone her age would have been the generation that fled on foot with nothing but the clothes on their backs after the U.S. left and Laos and Vietnam fell to communism. Some of the older gens felt betrayed and abandoned. I was born in Thailand in a refugee camp and came to the U.S. as a toddler. My parents would tell me I should be friends with my white friends only in school, because you can't trust Americans....
Her disparaging her grandson is the only unrealistic part. As the eldest grandson, he would be her treasure and doted on. That's how so many of the boys who go down bad paths like the gang boys in the movie end up that way. They're raised to feel entitled and not have to be responsible. It'd be more realistic if their grandma made his sister cater to him and do all the chores.
The imdb and the budget and earnings is helpfull please continue mentioning it with every recap👍📈
"Flaunting his gun" 😂 the new hot word that exempts brandishing
Walt hated the decline of society. Even though he used racist terms. He did it equally even to other white people like the barber. That's the subtle nod that racism isn't always racism. But, something rooted deeper than skin color. The girl next door was the first person in the whole film. That earned a small hint of respect from Walt. Because her actions warranted respect. Where Walt comes from respect is not given but earned. That's the whole premise behind why people think he's racist. Just because he doesn't hand our charity cards. Who really is in the wrong?
He isn’t racist in this movie. Anyone that says that has an incredibly superficial definition of the term.
His “names” he gives people isn’t hate centric at all. That is just how he is. He is a prick, but he acts bluntly honest.
FYI he doesn’t give preference to white people in this movie.
He scolds that one white teen acting like a wannabee rapper and he despises his own family. He ends up liking the Asian boy more than his granddaughter lol.
The fact that despite his initial veteran grunty attitude he shows he is just a guy that hates how things around him turned to shit (it wasn’t about minorities.
it was the crime that ruined the neighborhood). It’s why his final scene was impactful because he sacrificed his life to get rid of criminals from the neighborhood
I love how he still uses the guns that were standard issue during Korea.
He was never racist, just wanted to be left alone
Im 63. I can relate to Walt. I'm getting crankier and crankier.
Unfortunately, walts prior incident where he actually pulled his 1911 to the guys harassing the girl and his altercation where he came runiing out with his M1 Garand out will be the gang's self defense in court. They will argue that they knew Walt has a propensisty for violence and resorting to deadly force so when he reached into his jacket, they fired in anticipation that Walt was going to pull out a gun to shoot them. Only takes "reasonable belief" that your life is in imminent danger to use deadly force in self defense.
That only applies if you have proof that he did that. We are looking at it in the god angle but in court there is literally no physical proof or documented incidents. Given circumstantial evidences of their thug activities and witnesses coming up to add more charges, the judge is going to believe they are the threat and Walt is only acting as self defense if there's any evidence of the encounter.
They had their guns drawn at him the second they saw him. Self defense is laughable buddy.
"Walter is disappointed to see them to drive Japanese car.." lol..
absolute peak Clint Eastwood and a 10/10 movie
It’s a great movie
A truly great movie with the exception of the barber shop scene.
This movie is a classic
The story is simple down to earth yet very interestig❤❤
2:11 Fords are made in Mexico and Toyotas in America. If you want to support American workers you should buy Japanese.
Not true
If American auto makers made good cars instead of garbage, Japanese cars wouldn't sell like hotcakes. It took the Japanese eating UAW's lunch before the US auto makers and the UAW realized they can't keep making garbage that dont work, get lousy gas mileage, and low resale value. Now the US auto makers make petty darn good stuff. Whereas I used to have to take a Ford back to the dealer 4 times within the first 2 months of buying it to fix all the bugs, my Ford F250 has been running perfect for 41,000 miles. I have 115,000 miles on it now, 6 years old, and except for some moderate issues that got fixed right away, it has not let me down. Unthinkable quality control compared to 25-35 years ago. But it took the Japanese decimating US auto sales to get some response.
The point was that He WORKED at the Ford company, not that its an american car
“It is inevitable to impress their father…” 😂
One of my favorite movies
great movie liked it a lot
Seemes wholesome in the second half
He's not a racist, he's Polish :)
Great movie. 😊
Ahhh yesss the chicken being sacrificed scene.
This movie made me cry when i watched it
Fav Clint Eastwood movie
He ain't racist , he just loves his kind of people more than other kind of people, just like a normal human
All of you that keep on saying Walt is racist don't know the definition of racism. Racism is the belief that one's race is superior to others. Walt does not think he's superior to the Hmong people but he IS discriminatory. But while discrimination CAN come about because of racism discrimination in and of itself is not inherently racist. While he discriminates it's because of his experiences in the war not that he believes himself superior to them.
I really liked this movie.
What's this movie called
it said in the beginning
Fair to say this is a John wick version of Up😂
I thought this was a Psycho Dad video from the thumbnail
Movie name?
its in the beginning
Beginning of the movie : Walt making a dirty face all along.
He isn't racist he just probably doesn't like them
He hates people equally
This is a great movie that I really didn't get when I first saw it. In a sense, it's about the passing of an age dominated by ethnic white, working class Americans, as embodied by Walt and his circle of friends. It makes the case that immigrants should assimilate to the society they're entering, but not to the extent of forfeiting the culture that binds them together. After all, what Walt seems to admire most about the Hmong is their strong community and family orientation. Basically, this community has something that Walt sorely lacks, and he knows it, which is the root of him overcoming his distaste for their culture and general "foreignness."
And the movie uses both Thao and the Gran Torino to symbolize the future. The former is a representative of both generational and demographic change, and illustrates that the key to assimilation is being proudly both Hmong and American, forming a unique synthesis of the two cultures. And the latter is representative of the country at large; it remains the same vehicle, simply with a new driver. Notice that Walt is never portrayed as wrong for testing Thao, acculturating him, and building his character before entrusting him with the car. It's his right to do so, as the car is unquestionably his to do with as he pleases.
The movie essentially argues that immigrants have a duty to adapt to the culture they're entering and prove themselves as valuable members of their communities. Conversely, natives have a duty to treat immigrants fairly and honorably, evaluating them based on their character and contributions, rather than their cultural or ethnic background. It's through this process, not the mere issuance of citizenship papers, that new Americans are born.
I legit read the title as "Grand Turismo". lol.
Why is the movie flipped?
He's not a racist in this movie.
reductive as fuck. he defo is. It's the basis for the theme of the film. For the lot that love to misappropriate Orwell, yous sure love Double-Speak. Either that, or you are scared shitless of the word "racism", but not the action and opinions associated with it .
Lol did you watch the movie dude? One of the main points of the movie is him overcoming his own racism.
He hates people equally
@@onthewattleno he is not
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐FILM !
getting beaten by an old guy is crazy
Walt learned the truth, and enbraced the culture. We forget the the Mong helped us in Vietnam and then were hunted down and brutally murdered by the Communists.
How old is Walt if he own a m1 and he has been through ww2 and Vietnam
At least a geezer or a old fart age
@@DanielKwon-z1e I’m being serious
I Never Watch The Ending I didn't want to see what happens?? If he goes to jail or if he gets killed. Some movies I don't want to see it End to this is one of them. I rather Imagine them living a good life...
If I want sadness all I have to do is turn on the news, kind of agree with you.
It’s worth the watch. I’d advise you to give it a shot.
@@jeffthornton6998 alright today👊
@@jeffthornton6998 Bro he goes to Jail. That's Clint Eastwood he always gets the Lady and Rides away if the Gold. And he wanted to go to jail. Yea he was wrong. He kept him busy. Though it was sad Mary dies. Reconciling with his family was Heart felt. Taking it like a Champ🥊 to do his time. But that Clint Eastwood he could've took the DEA & Mafia Down in a Gunfight at the O.K. Coral✊ All in All Great Movie Thanks for Considering and the comment👊 It took 5 Years to watch the Ending..... now I know
he's old af tho so him going out a hero no matter how it is is definitely better than him dying of old age and sad
Bruh the title 🤣
Stop mispronouncing Thao’s name. It makes a hard T sound not a soft th.
its probably text-to-speech
AI it pronounced shaman as shaeman.
Daddy chill 💅 😌
What th...WHAT THE HELL IS EVEN THAT!?
Let's get one thing straight. Walt Kowalski is not a racist. He just doesn't have time for PC bull excrement.
Rare times you see Hmong people in media
It's nice to see sanity in the comments. Title is misleading. Sorry I gave this clickbait channel a view.
Clint Eastwood character well I wouldn’t say he is racist but more of a grumpy jerk who hates everyone equally.
This title is ignorant try again. You're oversimplifying the whole movie stop it, get some help
231k sub :)
There seems to be a continuity error in Walt's pick up truck. Since when did Chevy put the steering wheel on the RIGHT side instead of the left side (5:15)? Then later, the steering wheel somehow gets switched to the left side (5:19) and then back to the right side (5:21) and at (13:03)? WTF?
Pretty sure he flips the screen to bypass copyright
An amazing movie. But he was never racist. The man fought in Korea, he has traumas.
This is not about race issues. This guy even watched the movie?
I mean, i could get why he bought race into this since many soldiers do tend to racially offend their opponents but i get your point
Literally Up 2
lol is this was modern audience considers “racist” these days?
Gran Turismo is the sequel to this btw if anyone is interested
No, not at all related
Not racist !!
Any MHA fans here?
Even the man is dead, he still have to say "f*ck you" to his childrens
He is John weak father.
Asian? They are Hmong from Lao, named Lor. There is only one Hmong family/klan named Lor also spelled Lauj
He's got some odd takes some times.
To Everyone saying "hes not racist uwu" Its literally part of the movie and the entire point of the movie is that he's racist at the start and ends up dying for them. Shut up with the woke defensive sht. Its literally the movie's plot.
But he isn’t really racist at all but he is a bitter old man
He's not racist just Grumpy
this movie is just dumb af
Most racists are good people
Most people are good at heart 99% of people do things that they thing is morally correct
Source
Source? Lol
Have you ever gone to a KKK rally with a black friend?
What did I just read
Terrible title……
I hate movie recaps most useless channels ever
