Crazy for this movie!

Rating: Null/10 (26 April 2010)

I love this kind of story. Underdog beats favorite. Down-and-out person picks themselves out of the gutter. Going beyond the normal.
Jeff Bridges is probably one of my top five male actors as he even inches closer to #1.
Wow! What a gritty performance. Best of the year. Plus JB can sing to boot.
Maggie Gyllenhall is perfectly cast. What a beautiful performance. She may not have the looks of a typical Hollywood glamor girl but her personality, acting chops and soul make her very attractive.
T Bone Burnett's music is above country. It's country art. No twang. Just great songs and melodies.
I had to buy the soundtrack. Duet was awesome.
Colin Farrell as Tommy Sweet wasn't so sweet. Left a bitter taste. It was just a bland performance. Not sure why. Could've had more punch and interest. I love Colin Farrell. He's a very good actor. This round I think Scott Cooper misdirected him.
Colin can sing though. Didn't know that.
Nice job Scott Cooper.
My favorite movie in a long time.
Jeff Bridges. Long may you run "dude."
