Looked a bit corny on the clips but Ross raved about it and its getting excellent reviews.

"Ever notice how you come across somebody once in a while you shouldn't have messed with? That's me." rolleyes

Is'nt that like saying "Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk? " biggrin

I thought it was good. Clint says it may well be his last ever acting role though which would be a shame.

The trailers never do it justice. I thought Slumdog looked ste but that turned out very good.

This was excellent. He plays the grumpy old man very well and he growls a lot

Looks very good - Clint Eastwood is cementing his place as the greatest actor/director of all time IMO. Also - if you were going to fk around with an old bloke, Clint would be the last person to try it with.

Watched it last night, I thought it was fantastic, much better then I thought and very funny too (it felt unintentionally funny, but can't really tell with Clint).
