A rough-and-tumble Texas road-trip movie finds the right balance of character insight and bare-knuckled action.

It's a sentimental tale, but the quiet simplicity of Greengrass' images helps whenever things threaten to get goopy.

Helena Zengel is a marvel. She can be wild in one scene, defiant later, curious the next and emotionally shut down in another. She speaks volumes even without dialogue.

Kidd feels like an ancestor of Saving Private Ryan's Captain Miller - a man who is adept at violence but will only use it as a last, mournful resort.

Helena Zengel has one of those faces that you can just stare at for the entire film. You can see the intelligence behind her eyes.

Gorgeously shot amid the caramel deserts and peppermint skies of New Mexico, News of the World is a worthy and intelligent footnote to the western genre.

2d agoThe most fascinating thing about "News of the World" was the reminder that there were so many people in the 1800's that couldn't read, one could actually make money reading to a crowd. That's what I love about movies. They can entertain, educate and/or remind people what life was like at some place or point in time. "News of the World" follows Hanks and an orphaned girl on their journey across the West, but as in all things Western, eventually sh*t goes sideways. For some reason this reminded me of the far superior True Grit, albeit with the roles somewhat reversed between the grizzled wanderer and his young charge. It's a slow burn until the second act where there are some well-crafted tense scenes, but ultimately deteriorates towards the end with a very Hollywood ending.Mark B Super Reviewer
