#11 True Grit

To say Jeff Bridges is great is obvious, but I don't know if this warranted the hype that it is receiving. It is really good movie, but the last twenty minutes could have easily been left off to make it a great movie. It's one of those films that would be great if done by some run-of-the-mill director, but I guess I expect more from the Coen Brothers. I have seen all of their films and would probably rate this their 9th best. Which are better you ask? Well here is my list in no particular order.
Big Lebowski, Raising Arizona, Fargo, Simple Man, No Country For Old Men, Intolerable Cruelty, Man Who Wasn't There, O Brother Where Art Though, and Barton Fink.

"True Grit"
