Not a bad movie although it was too slow for me.

Jeff Bridges' performance was Oscar worthy. Terrific job as were Maggie G. Colin Farrell has a pretty good singing voice.

Jeff Bridges was outstanding as Bad Blake, an ageing alcoholic country singer struggling with the mistakes of his past, and reviving his career. In Maggie Gyllenhaal’s character he finds true love and a hope for change. This movie isn’t for everyone as it moves quite slowly and some scenes are redundant and uneventful. Bridges commands our attention and makes this movie watchable.

This movie was slow, full of music and about a crazy man with a kind heart.

Every once in a while, the Oscars get it right. Jeff Bridges hones his abilities for this role. You can practically smell the booze in his mouth and the 3rd hand smoke off his hair. Maggie Gyllenhaal keeps up with Jeff in a role that gives her some depth. The soundtrack is inspired and the performances top notch. It does seem to run a tad long but otherwise a great little film about a washed up artist and the people who make a difference in his life.

Although I thought Jeff Bridges did an amazing acting job the movie itself was slow and uneventfull. I found myself looking at my watch hoping it would just wrap up so I could get out of there. On the other hand I think you would enjoy this movie if you were 40+ as my dad loved the music and you may be able to relate to it better.

Bridges shows how he deserved the best actor award in his performance. Good plot without the usual sucky parts. A few good lessons also.

Very compelling story of an alcoholic just trying to survive a day to day humdrum "Past His Prime Country Music Star" life. Jeff Bridges does a great job and his singing abilities are surprising good. Although a bit slow in places, this movie is very well made.

Good movie, but seems similar to the old Barbra Streisand, Kris Kristopherson movie 'A Star Is Born'.

This main character reminds me of Chris Christopherson. I loved this movie.

This is one of the most incredible movies I have seen in a very long time. Jeff Bridges is absolutely amazing in his role. A must see for sure. Truly will touch a memory in everyones heart. Moves along slow enough that you can fully grasp the concept of this masterpiece of ups and downs in life.

Good flick, slow movie, no action and a little downer but definitely worth seeing, specially if you like country music (which I don't but still enjoyed it)

This movie was excellent. It was even better then I thought it would be. A great story & great performances from everyone. It should have been nominated for best picture too.

This magnificant film had showed how one struggles for relations and had to find solutions for himself to stop the drinking habit. Jeff Bridges, was considered to me exceptionally good actor and had showed alot of encouragement in this film. To me while seeing it had a message towards ones who marry ones who are heavy drinker. He had a tremendous voice and had sang pretty well as I do enjoy films which have some music which makes the film more for ones like myself who likes to hear good films that have alot of excitement and to bring lots of attention to listen to. His last relation he thought would work out and she did not like his drinking and he did change and wanted to show some inspiration but did not realize as she did not mention meaning Jean had hid that she was already married and made him think differently once he discovered at the end where he was living. I really enjoyed his music group. So to me the title Crazy Heart sure fitted to his way of living as his thinking was totally different. He was attached to Jean and it seemed that at times it showed but she hid somethings which hurted his feeling at the end of the film but all in all it was a good touchy film and happy to find out that he had won an award for best actor as he to me deserved it.

I thought this movie was very good, well acted and realistic. The ending was a little weak but all in all a good show.

This movie reminded me in many ways of last year's The Wrestler, with Mickey Rourke. Jeff Bridges does a great job of portraying a down and out country singer, but, in the end, the movie itself is both relatively boring and uninspiring. Maggie Gyllenhaal was very good in her part, but Robert Duvall was wasted in a bit part and Colin Farrell just didn't seem to be the right person for the country singing role. The movie is worth seeing, if nothing else but for Jeff Bridges Oscar winning performance. That said, you could just as easily wait for it to come out on DVD.

Willie Nelson mutates with the ' Dude' , in a wonderfully produced musical drama. Just when u think it's just another 'happy, then sad :) , then happy - whatever type of movie... it may throw u for a loop. Love ya Jeff! Just wish they woulda had more big concert scenes, but I think that's part of its charisma, good job Coop.

Much better than I expected it to be. Jeff Bridges' performance is truly Oscar-worthy. A worn out, used up man in desperate need of a life. I enjoyed the story, although I felt there were some slight gaps. I wasn't quite sure why/how she was able to get through the haze, beyond the fact that she was a quality human being who didn't want something from him. That certainly made her special, but I wasn't sure why he would be capable of caring that much. I also wasn't clear why she would fall for someone so obviously wounded and damaged, unless it was her own journey down a road she swore she wouldn't go down again, but that didn't see clear to me either. It's not that I didn't believe these things, but that I had to fill in the gaps with my own speculation (knowing what I do about addiction and co-dependency), rather than the story showing me. In any case, I really liked how the story evolved. Very sad but everyone found their way to be true to their integrity, despite the sacrifices this took. Then there's Robert Duvall who is such a classic in whatever he does. He seems to enjoy these small roles just to keep his hand in and show us he can do pretty much anything. And he does.

With the Oscars coming up and all the good vibe and awards for Jeff Bridges; I decided to take in this little independant movie that reminded me of last year's The Wrestler with Mickey Rourke but with a guitar. Jeff Bridges does give a compelling performance and is at his best when Maggie Gyllenhaal is on screen with him. This movie was better than I expected it to be and he does deserve the Oscar even though Colin Firth was amazing in a Single Man. I found Colin Farell a little flat (still a fan!) and Robert Duvall was his usual self. Overall pretty good movie with great performances By Bridges and Gyllenhaal.

Wait to see it on dvd as for Jeff Bridges I don't think he deserves to win an oscar for this, Colin Firth and even Jeremy Renner in the hurt locker did better.

Mediocre at best. You can sit through it if you have nothing better to do. It's just so lacking of anything.

The premise behind "Crazy Heart" had a ton of potential: wonderful storyline, fantastic music, and excellent casting. But yet, somehow, it never felt like the film got off of the ground. Jeff Bridges truly was brilliant and carried the film on his ever-capable shoulders, giving a more than Oscar worthy performance.

Basically, two people who essentially have 'problems' meet with almost unrealistic results... one a drunk the other seemingly an air head for having the hots for some smelly old reprobate. Music was good. Bridges is a great actor. This could have been better if it was a bit more realistic.

Realistic people, good story about aging and country music's "Almost Made Its". Not for imature tastes, that's why I am surprised at the youngsters liking it more.
