Joaquin is BEYOND sizzlin' hot as Cash

Rating: Null/10 (18 November 2005)

To say that Joaquin Phoenix is brutally hot as Johnny Cash is to indulge in understatement. He is beyond hot. He is so sexy he left hot behind a long time ago and went into a stellar land of heretofore unimaginable hotness. Phew! Now that that's out of the way, this is a good film. Reese Witherspoon does an excellent job as June Carter and good lord, is June's behavior an example to us all. I dream of being able to be that polite, but I just can't do it. The warmth in the move comes from June and her family. They are just marvelous. The pain and the creative drive comes from Johnny Cash and Joaquin Phoenix shows the tortured soul and deep needs of that creative genius.
