Another Coehn's Brothers movie. Great screenplay, and soberb interpretation. Jeff Bridges is overwhelming again.

The movie was awsome. I have never seen the original but now want to.

Enjoyed it very much but John Wayne is still my favorite.

I think the movie was great!

Jeff Bridges gave an amazing performance in this movie.

The acting and dialog (as long as you could follow it) were very good - I particularly liked Matt Damon's performance, but overall the film felt emotionally empty, with an unsatisfying ending.

A great adaptation of the original. Jeff Bridges was great.

An excellent old fashion western.

Hailee Stienfeld was truly believable character loved her True Grit in the film. Matt Damon was halarious. Jeff Bridges was a riot as Rooster Cockburn

One of the best remakes of a film I've seen in years. That said the movie was not much different from the original. I liked it.
January 01, 2011
Fantastic movie...another Coen's finest!
January 01, 2011
Jeff Bridges was great, James Brolin not so much. Hailee Steinfeld is an amazing newcomer

WOW I hated this movie!! Practically everyone had a speech impediment or a very irritating speech pattern. It was s l o w and you felt no kinship towards the main characters. I was hoping they would both die. BTW if seeing animals being abused bothers you, just one more reason not to see this film. What a waste of precious time and money.

I don't get why people say the original was better. THIS IS the original, it was based from the book. Do you people read books? Anyway, I digress. The acting was great as well as the script, when people comment that the movie was slow, I guess they expected this to be a blow em up a minute Michael Bay movies since they have very short attention spans with limited IQ. This movie was more about character study on perseverance and honour and loyalty but I guess the whiners that gave it bad reviews missed that.

While very different than what I expected, i still thought the movies was very, very well done. Great performances and a smart script.

My husband and I both thought this was an amazing movie. Obviously there is a lot of old english in this movie...it is a Western movie. We truly enjoyed it.

True Grit was enjoyable. It was nice to see the humour in the drama of them movie.

Jeff Bridges is salty, gritty and a true western dude, well done movie enjoyed start to finish...

This movie was not what I expected. There are not many actions scenes, way to much dialogue and generally a slow movie to sit through. Jeff Bridges was almost impossible to understand at times, almost as bad as Christian Bale as Batman...And the bad guys were not even bad, they were the nicest villians i've ever seen in a cowboy move. The only highlight was the quick talking girl that made this movie somewhat watchable..Save you time and energy.

Great remake. Looked and sounded good on the new avx theatre.

The original is one of my favourite movies. So I was a little apprehensive about going to see this one. But the young girl was actually young, not like the original when she was actually in her 20's. Jeff Bridges did an outstanding job and to learn he did his own stunts puts John Wayne to shame. As a bad guy Brolin could not have done it any better. True Oscar winning perfomances by all and a movie that will make a lover of westerns return time and again to see it and eventually by the DVD. A true Western not since Silverado has there been such a great movie. Westerns and Cowbys can really fill a screen.

Good performance from Bridges. Not as good as the original.
December 31, 2010
What can I say...it was a western with lots of shooting and killing. Jeff Bridges and Matt Damon played great roles; however, Hailee Steinfeld was fantastic - lots of speaking. Sounds like she would make a great lawyer.
December 30, 2010
Top notch acting especially by Hailee Steinfeld. I have always liked movies with Matt Damon and Jeff Bridges and now I'll have to watch for more movies by this young lady. I have to admit though that I hated the ending.
December 30, 2010
great movie can't wait to see it again
December 30, 2010
Hailee should win a Oscar.
December 30, 2010
It was a good story with a poor ending. It could have been a better ending.
December 30, 2010
Jeff Bridges was amazing in this movie, but I thought it ended badly.
December 30, 2010
True Grit is a great film and story I did not think could be re-done, especially with the Duke portraying the original Rooster Cogburn, but Jeff Bridges puts his own unique spin on the classic story. The story is true to the book and the supporting cast is terrific. Recommended for western fans and those who love a good story.
December 30, 2010
I loved this movie; great entertainment and brilliant acting on all the actors in the movie. Bravo!
December 30, 2010
Jeff Bridges ....sweet, oh the movie? Jeff Bridges!!
December 30, 2010
Nothing to rave about this movie-the original with John Wayne was far better. This was a huge disappointment.
December 30, 2010
Why did True Grit need remaking? Went home and watched the original - this was a pale imitation.
December 30, 2010
Excellent interpretation of this classic western movie I found that this version highlighted the human element of the story. Appeals to a broader audience than your typical shoot 'em up western.

Really enjoyed the movie
December 29, 2010
Amazing movie, with a really Authentic feel to it. Yes it is not much like the original, but it is really good. if this movie is not nominated for an Oscar I will be really surprised.

Found this movie boring. The actors seem to be more interested in their performances...really, I got lost in this...it took away from the story. That's how it came through for me and also my husband. We did not enjoy it and could have walked out early but stuck it through to see if it would get better. The main actress is cute, but that's about it.
December 29, 2010
A little slow paced,enjoyed the actors.

The dude comes back to life in this remake of Paul Newman's True Grit. Jeff Bridges character as the old fogey, but lovable bounty hunter takes cues from his previous Coen brother's movies, but his sidekick Matt Damon plays off his tenacity very well. The precocious girl who's avenging her father's death is a not to be missed character...she is sure to go far in Hollywood!
December 29, 2010
Expected more from this movie with all the hype. The original is still the best with John Wayne but the acting was good in the new version. The action was still to slow to save this remake.
December 29, 2010
My family watches True Grit every Christmas. The new movie had a couple of really bad continuity errors - and I just don't know why you would do a remake of the superb original.
