CRAZY HEART

CRAZY HEART isn't a great film, its a good film with a great performance by Jeff Bridges. The film is a little slow but I enjoyed the country twang tunes and the great southwest landscapes portrayed in the film. Bridges in nominated for best actor for his portrayal of Bad Blake, a washed up country singer past his prime.

EDGE OF DARKNESS

No actor does mad better than Mad Mel Gibson. After the untimely death of his daughter, Gibson's character yells, screams, and beats up every suspect he can find in trying to find her killer. It's nice to see Gibson back on screen. Regardless of his off screen antics and politics he has brought uncountable movie memories to life over the last quarter of century. Mad Max and Martin Riggs are two of my all-time favorite film characters.

Occasional film goers will appreciate Edge's suspense and mystery. I had issues with the unnecessarily complicated screenplay. Jamie says "6".
