Very good but Walk the Line could have been better

Rating: 8/10 (26 November 2005)

Walk the line was pretty good. I know people who have much more interesting life stories than the one they have told in this movie about Johnny Cash. Don't get me wrong the acting was superb. In my opinion the story wasn't as colorful as it could have been. Maybe there wasn't much story to tell. Maybe they didn't know how to tell it to make it as interesting as his life was. They used too much lip singing for filler even for me and I like his music. At one point it was reminiscent of Milli Vanilli video that you thought would never end. I'd say it is a movie worth seeing. Don't expect Walk the Line to be as good as Ray.
