Girded by strong performances from Jeff Bridges, Matt Damon, and newcomer Hailee Steinfeld, and lifted by some of the Coens' most finely tuned, unaffected work, True Grit is a worthy companion to the Charles Portis book.

The Coen brothers' excellent western True Grit is a second and rather different version of Charles Portis's novel, rather than a remake of the 1969 film that brought John Wayne an Oscar as the one-eyed bounty hunter Marshal Rooster Cogburn. Feb 14, 2011 | Full Review…

True Grit is the third film the Coen brothers have made since the triumph of No Country for Old Men. It's just as characteristic and deserves just as much success. Feb 11, 2011 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

This True Grit is a very impressive piece of work, beautifully photographed by Roger Deakins, and if you had never seen the original, it might be getting even higher praise. Feb 10, 2011 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

It could be the Coens' most straightforward film, but it's also one of their best. Feb 9, 2011 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…

Steinfeld more than holds her own in this high callibre company, shining in her role, as the Coen's shift the focus of the film on to her character to mirror the original novel's style. Jan 28, 2011 | Rating: 4.5/5 | Full Review…

Delivers a perfectly fine, character-driven revenge yarn before unaccountably falling into a heap in its final act. Jan 26, 2011 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Without comparing the film to John Wayne's original of 1969, the Coen's version stands on its own with noteworthy performances by Jeff Bridges and newcomer Hailee Steinfeld. Dec 30, 2018 | Rating: A- | Full Review…

What we get is a more faithful, near-pitch perfect adaptation of the original text which narrowly misses out on being classifiable as a Coen classic. Nov 6, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

It's very much in keeping with the Coen policy of turning out great, rich, bloodsome stuff in a casual or even stealthy way, without much pomp or clamor. Oct 26, 2018 | Full Review…

True Grit is a masterpiece that should win over the most dedicated Duke die-hards and introduce a new generation of boys (and girls) to the gritty thrills of the Wild West. Oct 3, 2018 | Full Review…

Henry Hathaway's 1969 adaptation was highly faithful... The Coens' movie is less faithful than Hathaway's but stronger - the production, by their regular team, is formally superb - and weirder. Jul 10, 2018 | Full Review…

Disappointing overall, though entertaining at times, True Grit isn't exactly the Coen brothers best movie but they get an A for effort. Sep 8, 2017 | Rating: C+ | Full Review…
