Review of Country Strong (2010) by Deb S — 10 Sep 2011
Gwenythn Paltrow plays the role of an aging out of rehab country star Kelly Canter and with the help of Tim McGraw as her manager/ husband go through the struggles of returning to fame along with Leighton Meester and Garrett HedLund (who I previously liked in TRON: Legacy).
It's a classic comeback story with twists and turns that illuminate the dramas we all face in life but if you `re expecting another "feel good" movie then you will be disappointed. Paltrow is believable as a fragile singer, Leighton Meester is great as her role as a young hopeful singer Chiles but oddly enough the true country star - Tim McGraw - never sings!
