Walk the Line isn't as great a biopic as Ray, but it's still a fine tribute to the Man in Black and his muse.

a very solid piece of filmmaking... but as a biopic it walks the line between conservative and bland.

Witherspoon delivers a full-bodied, note-perfect performance as sassy, no-nonsense June, and proves herself an able singer in the process.

Que nadie lo dude, la verdadera estrella de esta película es la música de Cash y los principales beneficiados quienes antes de ver el filme no la conocíamos.

Walk the line es la vivencia de un hombre, entregándose al baile de sus demonios, para después enfrentarlos y salir avante de ellos.

Phoenix makes himself an immediate Oscar contender by capturing Cash with more than just facial expressions and body language.

Una biografía más bien convencional y algo superficial, que vale la pena más que nada por la labor de sus protagonistas y por la música de Johnny Cash.

In spite of all it does right, Walk the Line leaves one with the nagging sense of a story unfinished — or rather, with something left out.
