Clint Eastwood’s Gran Torino (both have similar themes and both play on the cinematic image of their leading men), but it stops being a good film when it decides to divert from its reality and into something else.

Paul’s story is woven round the signs he displayed outside his church. We’ve all seen these wayside pulpits and, most often, groaned. But Paul’s messages had a topicality and humour which make them all-time classics of the genre.

Clint Eastwood grunts and sneers his way through it in a deliciously comedic turn, the film doesn't go anywhere unexpected and is rather predictable but it's fun enough if you take it that way.

Clint Eastwood biography - Wikipedia
Clinton "Clint" Eastwood Jr. (born May 31, 1930) is an American actor, film director, producer and composer. He has received four Academy Awards, five Golden Globe Awards, a Screen Actors Guild Award and five People's Choice Awards—including one for Favorite All-Time Motion Picture Star.
Eastwood is primarily known for his tough guy, anti-hero acting roles in violent action films, particularly in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. Following his role on the long-running television series Rawhide, he was cast as the Man with No Name in the Dollars trilogy of spaghetti westerns and as Inspector Harry Callahan in the five Dirty Harry police dramas, which have made him an enduring icon of masculinity. Eastwood is also known for his comedic efforts in Every Which Way but Loose (1978) and Any Which Way You Can (1980), his two highest-grossing films without adjustment for inflation.
For his work in the films Unforgiven (1992) and Million Dollar Baby (2004), Eastwood won Academy Awards for Best Director, producer of the Best Picture, and received nominations for Best Actor. These films in particular, as well as others such as Paint Your Wagon (1969), Play Misty for Me (1971), The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976), Escape from Alcatraz (1979), In the Line of Fire (1993), The Bridges of Madison County (1995), and Gran Torino (2008) have all received great critical acclaim and commercial success. He has directed many of his films, and has also found success in others in which he has not acted such as Mystic River (2003).
He also has an interest in politics, serving as Mayor of Carmel-by-the-Sea, California, from 1986 to 1988. He is the only person to have starred in blockbuster films as a leading man for five consecutive decades, making him the longest-running movie star in film history.
