I went to see this movie last week. It has shot right up and landed itself in the running for one of my top ten favorite movies.
It's a great story about a washed-up country singer and his search for redemption. If you are truly a music aficionado, the soundtrack to this movie is amazing and contains one of the best songs I have ever heard. (The song is showcased in the trailer, but it really doesn't do it justice.)
I was really worried that the movie was just going to be 'The Dude' with a guitar, but Jeff Bridges really put on a great performance as 'Bad Blake'. He even sang his own songs! Anyhoo...this movie has a great story, is very witty, and the soundtrack really makes the movie. Go see it.
The soundtrack sounds good. But just from the trailers it looks like the story to The Wrestler. Just switch out the professions.
