True Grit (24/2/11)


This should be the poster picture of the movie. Its this girl that stars in the film, followed by Jeff Bridges and then Matt Damon. It is hailee steinfeld's first movie. And wow, she got it to do with legendary actor Jeff Bridges and season actor Matt Damon and she did it so well. Her acting is good here. But the movie? Erm.. Its reallly really boring. I don't know why people rate it so well. Jeff speaks like a typical old man voice. Its so unclear as he went about his own speech for minutes. Honestly, if you want to watch it, only watch for this girl. She's a talent. It's about a movie of her embarking on a journey to seek for the murderer of her father. When found, she was just meters apart from each other. The story went on with some tense moments. You'll get to see her falling into a deep hole and when she thought of an idea to grab something, suddenly it opens up to be a skeleton and snakes glide out of what used to be stomach.
Much culture is appreciated in this film, since it is film based on olden way of living. Hailee shows off her courage by negotiating with an elder about the sale of her ponies and horses and getting serious with Jeff Bridges, convincing him that she was looking for him, who is a man of True Grit. She takes a horse, gallops it across a river of water height just allowing the horse to breathe. The journey begins there. My take: 3/5.
