    Surprisingly enjoyable

    by H3OIndra

    When Crazy Heart arrived from Netflix, let's just say I was less than enthused. I probablly added it to my queue because it was an award winnder and then just forgot about it until it got sent to me. It wasn't really what I was in the mood for, but having just watched Surrogates the night before I figured what the hell, anything has to be better than that crap. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the award winner held up to the hype and I enjoyed the story. Definitely watch it, you might actually want to actively go out and rent it if you haven't seen it yet.

    Warm story with tough edges & great music!

    by saxunltd

    Yes, you should see this if you like music; yes, you should see this if you like Jeff Bridges--one of his best performances, it may be his very best. Then, to see Collin Farrell in a supporting role as a younger New Country superstar. And to see Maggie Gylenhall in a role that reveals both smarts; tenderness; and toughness. Robert Duvall is wonderful, too, as the best friend/bar owner/fishing buddy. Each character is so well-developed; and they all fit into a story that has pain; humor and warmth, blended with a few scary moments: a road accident; the fearsome realities of a hard-drinking lifestyle; a lost child; and a romance that seems to have potential but resolves in the wisest way it could. The photography--some great close-ups that reveal so much; T-Bone Burnett's great songs; a wonderful script with great lines and so many inspired moments...I had a wonderful time!

    Crazy Great Acting

    by moviemonster

    Jeff Bridges is, hands down, one of our generations greatest actors and his performance in Crazy Heart proves it. Many years ago, Robert Duvall made a film with similar content called Tender Mercies, for which he garnered an Oscar. While Crazy Heart tells a similar story, this does not diminish the tour de force Bridges delivers. Coincidentally, Robert Duvall has an endearing little cameo in Crazy Heart. Another supporting player, Maggie Gyllenhall, offers another wounded woman. No one in Hollywood delivers vulnerability better than Ms. Gyllenhall. If you think she's good in this, catch her in Cheri (sic?) Baby.

    Don't miss this fabulous ensemble performance.
