There's lot a lot of deviation from the standard coming of age tale laid out here, though the Asian American racism themes are fresh. Clint Eastwood is appropriately gruff, but old Clint Eastwood can play this role in his sleep. The real star, for me, was the film's use of its minimal score and its supporting cast of mostly unknown Asian actors.
