TRUE GRIT de Joel Coen & Ethan Coen

[francesco34]

Un western par les temps qui courent ça se refuse pas... et par les frères Coen en plus, j'achète

[Waylander]

Bah pour ma part pour le moment je suis pas super enthousiaste. La photo me plait pas des masses, les acteurs non plus et l'histoire a l'air vue et revue. Bon j'irais le voir c'est sur je boude pas un western mais bon visuellement de la des Cohen m'attendait à un plus recherché, un peu plus sombre et des plans plus originaux etc...Je m'attendais peut-être un peu trop à voir un "No country..." mais cette fois-ci en "vrai" western.

Techniquement ça à l'air bien léché quand même après No Country ça reste leur film le mieux shooté par sur que les frangins reviennent un jour à un tel niveau de mise en scène.

[Scalp]

Petite déception le film sera classé PG13.

[Milkshake]

Pourquoi il y a aura pas assez de sang pour tes gouts de bourrin ?

[Scalp]

Bein en général les Coen c'est toujours du R, leur film PG13 c'est loin d'être des grandes réussite, le sang c'est un truc important dans un film des Coen.

[Heatmann]

Les premières critiques viennent de tomber :

Anne Thompson at Thompson On Hollywood, sums up the general consensus on the film overall saying, “The Coens are at the top of their game, honoring the great John Ford with a tip of the hat to Anthony Mann.” She adds, however, “critics may be mixed on this slow-paced western character study, which does not function as an action picture” and moreover that the film “may work for older filmgoers and a holiday family crowd. But the film’s archaic, formal style and florid period language, which will be admired by the Academy’s writing branch, may prove too formidable a barrier to a mass audience.”

Gregory Ellwood at HitFix has effusive praise for the film’s lead saying, “Bridges is arguably better here than in his nuanced Oscar winning turn in ‘Crazy Heart’ and hasn’t completely transformed himself for a role this much since the last time he worked on the Coens in ‘The Big Lebowski.’” He also has no doubt about its Oscar chances saying, “Not only is ‘Grit’ a player, but it’s one of the best pictures of the year.”

Kris Tapley at In Contention says the film’s slightly frayed edges are intentional (which seems to run counter to it being traditional western which are usually quite compact). He says, “You see, this isn’t really “a Coen brothers film” to me….it’s fair to say it bears more of a resemblance to the work of Anthony Mann, John Ford and Budd Boetticher than it does that of the Coens. The film isn’t focused on being as tight and complete as most of their films, and indeed, inchoate was very much a goal here.”

Sasha Stone at Awards Daily forewarns Coens fans saying, “What does this mean, though, for the tried and true Coen traditionalists? They will likely be somewhat disappointed by the overt sentimentality here, the reach into unknown Coen territory.”

Scott Feinberg has kind words for the cast all around but none as strong as those reserved for Hailee Steinfeld who he says will take home an Oscar: “13-year-old Hailee Steinfeld totally steals the show and, if my gut-feeling at the moment is correct, will prevail in this year’s weak best supporting actress race. She gives a first-rate performance as a precocious character; hers is easily the largest and most substantive of the parts that have any shot of being nominated.”

En gros ça serait très classique on verrait pas du tout la Coen touch (certainement pour le meilleur) avec un film comparé 2 fois à du Anthony Mann plus porté sur les sentiments que l'action.
