Taylor Baker

Episode 11: Moving On

Crazy Heart is too sentimental and predictable to be a classic, but the songs are impressively authentic and Bridges delivers a superb performance.

Leigh Paatsch

What keeps this indie drama just the right side of average is a brilliantly measured, Oscar-winning performance by the great Jeff Bridges.

Crazy Heart has the mellow, believable gait of real life, and sometimes the truth is better than any reassuring fiction.

Common Sense Says

Bridges shines in adult tale of alcohol and country music.

What Parents Need to Know

Parents need to know that Crazy Heart -- which follows a middle-aged musician's (Jeff Bridges) failing career and the major drinking problem that's contributing to that failure -- is clearly aimed at grown-ups. Unless teens have an interest in classic country music (or in actor Colin Farrell, who has a small supporting role), it's unlikely that they'll be clamoring to see it. In the event that they are, they'll find plenty of food for thought and some good music ... as well as some very strong language (especially during the movie's first half) and tons of drinking (including drunk driving), until the main character has an important wake-up call.
