True Grit

sofiai shared a tip "This movie was very different from anything I have ever seen. It was kinda slow and the ending was not all that satisfying but I think that was the point. It was really interesting."

sean_green_7753 shared a tip "4/5. I'm not huge on westerns, but when I get the itch to watch one, this and Appaloosa are my go-to. Really I don't have nuch to say, the cinematography is great, the acting is great, the score is great. But it does kind of drag on for me, there are moments that I come across that I tend to want to fast forward a bit."

wahsatch_outdoors shared a tip "Hated it the first time. Watched the original, came back, and it made more sense. I feel as if this version was made to be as close to the original as possible. It almost feels cheesy, but when you watch the original it makes sense."

jakob_toews shared a tip "Great comedic scenes between Jeff Bridges and Matt Damon as well as great acting all around, especially from a 14 year old Hailee Steinfeld."

alan_richardson shared a tip "If you watch this movie what stands out tk me is the formality of the dialog, so foreign to our way of communicating these days. I had years earlier read the novel which was the basis of not this script and that of the John Wayne original. The originalbTrue Grit had marked differences in the character development among the three and the formality of speech was a little toned down but still present. Matties character was more courageous and assertive in this version and just vexing. Read the book"

alan_richardson shared a tip "To answer the question I say no, none like it because of the peculiarity of Portis's handling if the language. It just changed the whole movie. "That's bold talk for a one-eyed fat man." No, not even the original is like it."

teddy_holiday shared a tip "Though not a kid movie, I loved this movie as a kid. I love studying the time period so I love movies set in that period. Aside from the awful green screen at the end, I greatly enjoy watching this movie. The characters are fun and the setting makes me happy inside!"
