Crazy Heart
Enjoyable with excellent performances - muireann bernadino
This was'nt a bad little film. It was just what I needed to see on Friday night to wind down after a long hard week at work and ease myself into the week-end. The acting here is brilliant, especially Bridges in his his role as the down at heel alcoholic singer/song writer. Some of the scenes are enough to turn you off booze. Gyllenhaal and Farrell were very stong too. There were times when the film dragged a little and when Bridges diction was so bad that sub-titles were needed.

Charming and predictable - andrewire
Crazy Heart somehow felt like a vehicle for Jeff Bridges and his "overdue" campaign to get him an Oscar. But this is the right movie for the right performer so it was nice to see him doing something... MORE
