Crazy Heart - 8.5/10

I went and saw Crazy Heart last night in the theater. I was stoked that it finally got a wider release (2 total theaters) in Arizona. But one was down the street. I hadn’t seen a movie in awhile and was kinda having withdrawals. I usually like watching the shows like the Golden Globes and Screen Actor Guild Awards. But sometimes it kinda gives you too much to look forward to seeing that Jeff Bridges has won both of the Best Actor Awards for his performance in this movie and he’ll most likely be the front runner for the Oscar which was unveiled today. I really enjoyed his performance and also that of Maggie Gyllenhaal and Colin Farrell. This movie was all around amazing acting. The plot was really good but it kinda reminded me of the Wrestler from last year: “A broken down has been.”
