As my 78 year old father often says...

"Never fuck with an old man. He's gonna die soon anyway and he knows it, so he's got nothing to lose by killing your sorry ass."
There must be an end to this intimidation by those who come to this great country, but reject its culture.

With the gravelly voice, I wonder if he's playing the gunny character grown old? Remember his movie about the Marines on Grenada?

Can't be the Gunny character, as he was a Medal of Honor winner, and this guy had what I think was a Silver Start.

Heartbreak Ridge.

And yes, I'll probably see this one.

I do belive that this is going to be one of his better flicks. I will have to see it.

The character in this movie is a Korean war veteran. That's probably why he has a Garand. Gunny Highway in "Heartbreak Ridge" was a Vietnam vet.
And +1 on seeing this one.
