    I'm well convinced that Clint Eastwood only does movies to as an outlet for all his racist thoughts. Seriously, name one Clint Eastwood movie in the last 15 years that didn't have some racial slurs, sexism and bigotry in it. Can't be done.
    American Sniper was a cool flick though

    He was friends with black people in Gran Torino. So your arguement is invalid.

    so being friends with black people makes someone not racist?

    Yes, isn't that how it goes?

    They start as asian and then morph into being black. It's science n shiz.

    Wait, aren't asians black? I'm so confused by all the colors.

    What a terrible movie, just another "USA is number 1!!!" Garbage....

    What are you? Some kind of commie?

    Just saying we get it, all the other countries on the planet understand that you guys THINK you're cool but we see insecurity in it...
    You're from an imaginary country. If you see insecurity, it's because you're projecting.

    Typical American...
    Don't you have someone you need to go apologize to?

    Did you see the movie? It's nothing about USA being number 1...you are just bitter because you are Canadian and will always be second to the great USA!!!

    You could go to the doctor and have your feelings checked for free if she cut you too deep.

    I interpreted it as his brother was fine...just fed up with the war and traumatized by everything he had seen or been through. I thought the scene was meant to illustrate the difference between Chris's state of mind...he truly believed in what he was doing and felt he was doing good...and his brother and many others who saw the pointlessness of it and no longer believed it was helping anything. I think Chris just couldn't relate to or understand that mindset.

    You are entitled to your opinion. There is nothing wrong with that. But you should thank your military AND your neighbors to the south for the freedom you enjoy to have that opinion.

    A week after opening it is still selling out some showings. People tend to vote the overall quality level with $$$. Eastwood knows how to act and direct to reach the hearts of the masses. Clearly not everyone likes the movie but I expect in this case that this is not a film industry concern. :)

    Only pointing out that your argument is invalid, no need for jimmie to be rustled.

    What's with all the remakes all the time for? Tom Berenger did this movie in 1993.

    I wish hollywood would make an original movie for once.
