Very, very good. I only went because The Fighter wasn't on at the time I was able to get to the cinema.

The leads are great, all three and especially loving Matt Damon's part. It was well worth a watch.

We saw True Grit on Saturday, as well as Gnomeo & Juliet, and loved both of them.

If anyone's thinking about going to see either, I'd strongly advise it.

Oh, can't wait to see TG - fond memories of endless Sunday afternoons occasionally punctuated by a John Wayne film, which my dad would insist watching, we'd moan, then be riveted throughout -especially that one!

Want to see The Fighter as well.

DP can't wait to see this - we are going tomorrow. We had a back to back session with the orignal True Grit andt hen Rooster Cogburn a couple of weeks ago.

I am not enamoured of Westerns, but the reviews are good and that young girl looks good in it as well.

An excellent film, especially the child-kicking scene.:o

saw it tonight and it is totally fab, an absolute Cohen Bros classic. Up there with Fargo and Oh Brother Where Art Thou

Does it add anything to the original? Or is it an exact remake?

P.S. Thought Country for Old Men was over hyped crap Hmm so not a Cohen Bros fan! And I do kind of think it is a travesty that they have felt the need to remake such a classic.

I thought it was very similar to the original tbh - but a lot better.

DP prefers the John Wayne version.

But it is really good I think, in the original the young girl was played by an adult, the 14 year old who plays her in the new version is excellent.

Actually, all three leads are really good, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

there is a lot more to the Cohen Bros than NCFOM though Annie Have you seen Fargo? A total classic, as was True Grit
