Movie Review - True Grit

True Grit

Hmm...Rent the original, folks. OK, look, I am a fan of the Coen Brothers and they did an okay job with a great classic. However, I have to admit I was disappointed and surprised at all the hype. Am I missing something? It was fairly entertaining, and Jeff Bridges is always good, but I thought it fell flat.


A major bright spot - Look out for the young actress who played the girl avenging her father's death; she really delivers in this role. Her dialogue was vintage Coen, and she performed flawlessly. As for the rest, I was just not blown away. I will always check out the Coen Brothers; I just think they should have left this one alone.


Rating: B-
