Second Best Jeff Bridges in a Bowling Alley Movie

Rating: 6/10 (15 July 2015)

A faded country music musician (Jeff Bridges) is forced to reassess his dysfunctional life during a doomed romance that also inspires him.
Jeff Bridges has had a really good career. Some highs, some lows. But even the lows are better than most actors' lows. Can you think of a bad movie he was in? Now, did he deserve Best Actor for this picture? Maybe not. But it did allow him to showcase a bit of his depth and breadth, as well as his musical ability.
For pure entertainment, this is certainly no "Big Lebowski" or "Tron", and will probably not go down in history as one of the films Bridges is remembered for (despite the Oscar).
