Crazy Heart

This story is about a man (Jeff Bridges) who is a dead beat country singer, meets a woman whom he falls in love with, tries to make their relationship work while living in seperate states, but when he is not "paying attention" and loses her son in a mall she decides he is a drunk and cannot be trusted. Oscar worthy....uhhhhh, no. The story was predictable and although I like Jeff Bridges it kind of creeped me out when he and Maggie Gyllenhal's character got together. I felt Bridges performance was well done but again, the story falls flat. Gyllenhal just didn't show me anything new (really have only liked her in the one movie with Will Ferrell) and Collin Farrell as a country artist, mmmmmm no that one didn't work out too well. Dissapointing. I say, pass on this unless there is nothing else you want to watch.
