Re: True Grit

Yup. Matt Damon and Jeff Bridges..2 great actors, but I was more impressed by the girl!! I don't know what it was. She is just so direct and forward.

Wow, she's done almost no work before this movie.

Re: True Grit

Bridges, Damon, Brolin, and that girl? This movie looks awesome. Bridges might do a Tom Hanks-Spencer Tracy.

Re: True Grit

I've never really thought about it, but I would have to say Jeff Bridges is one of my favorite actors. He's always good in everything and picks some great roles.

My favorite after Nolte.

Re: True Grit

As I said above - just not really a big western fan. Other than Unforgiven, Tombstone, 3:10 to Yuma......

****. I thought I could've thought of more, ha. Other than those three, it'd take me a few minutes of thinking to remember any of the others I've watched or heard of.

Silverado my man... Silverado. My fav western of all time. If you haven't seen it, you should seriously do so.

Re: True Grit

Silverado is badass. Definitely top 10 for me. I find Tombstone to be a little overrated with the exception of Kilmer. 3:10 to Yuma was good, but was essentially carried by Ben Foster.

Re: True Grit

I saw the trailer for this on Friday and wow, can't wait, it looks great. Some great acting going on in this movie and I'll bet it cleans up in the awards dept.

Re: True Grit

Anybody seen this yet?
I am going to see it with my family today.

The Dude is in so many movies lately!
Just saw Tron in which he, literally, was The Dude.

Re: True Grit

Yeah I saw it a few days and it's great, the little girl needs to get nominated for an Oscar.

Re: True Grit

Great, great movie. Jeff Bridges had me rolling with his subtle looks and remarks. I loved that the movie was able to take a break with a little comedy, but keep the overall tone of the movie serious.

Hoping to see it atleast once more before it leaves theaters. We've been lucky with westerns the last few years, what with 3:10 to Yuma and True Grit. Hopefully the trend continues.

Re: True Grit

Throughly entertaining movie. The girl (Hailee Steinfeld-remember that name) is gold. Can't believe she got shutout for a Golden Globe nom.

Tombstone is kind of terrible, highlighted by Kilmer and Kilmer alone. 3:10 remake wasn't that great either. In terms of Westerns in the past 20 years, it's pretty much Unforgiven and everyone else. Although the Assassination of Jesse James was awesome for a non-traditional Western.

Re: True Grit

Good acting, okay movie overall.

I thoroughly enjoyed 3:10 to Yuma way more, but I guess they're not "exactly" the same type of flick.

I liked both original and remade 3:10 To Yumas, but not nearly as much as this flick.
