Review of Country Strong (2010) by James R — 10 Sep 2011

I enjoyed the music in this film a lot. It has some great performances especially by Garret Hedlund and Tim McGraw. There is a lot of really nice moments in the film, but it almost seems a little rushed.

There's a lot of plot holes in the movie which threw it off for me. I didn't feel entirely convinced by Gweneth Paltrow's addiction and after awhile it was pretty god damn annoying I was a lot more interested in the other characters.

I enjoyed the music and say to watch it just for that. The story is so so. Give it a rent!
