Movie Review: Walk the Line

yes, i am the last person to see this movie. i just watched it last night. correction - i watched the first 1 hr 45 min monday night, then finished the last 25min or so last night. whoever said this movie is the whitey version of "Ray" is not only funny but also pretty accurate. except this movie was not as good as Ray. i didnt really like the movie that much. it is slow and about half an hour too long, minimum. both Phoenix and Witherspoon had award worthy performances, but the rest of the movie was average. scenery could have been better, dialouge needed work, cinematography was average. i got bored pretty early in this movie. the last 20 min were quite a bit better, after he makes a change for the better, but otherwise this movie did not live up to the hype for me.

Grade: B- (it gets into the B range only because the acting is good enough to raise it above a C.)
