Movie - Walk the Line

Saw it Wednesday night... I thought it was done very well. Was iffy about Jaquin Pheonix playing Johnny Cash but he pulled it off. Also, Reese Witherspoon(so hot....) played June Carter to the hilt. Both did all their own singing. I was hoping it would be as good as "RAY" but it wasn't. There are a lot of parallels between Ray Charles and Johnny(both having their brothers die at an early age, strugleing with drugs/alcohol but overcoming to become inovators in their feilds). I felt it could have been dialed in a little more and been much better. Not a big fan of country music but Johnny Cash is the man! Overall, thumbs up and I would recommend....
P.S... though it would've been more fitting to call the movie "The Man in Black" but that's just me....

 

I loved that movie, and I listened to all of those songs when I was growing up. That movie rocked the house, and I would see it again in a heartbeat. I think that it portrayed almost everything about Johnny Cash.

I plan on seeing it sometime soon. It's just wierd for me because I remember his the most from his older days.

 

Saw it the other night too. Maria and I enjoyed the movie surprisingly cause we aren't big Cash fans, but again good movie. Oh yeah, I didn't know he was in the AF.

 

Saw it last night. Or actually I finished it up, but yeah it was a great film. I really had no idea that things went down like they did. And it was so sad at the end when they told about him and the girl. But of course we all knew that he died.

I'd give it 10 out of 10.
