tizz Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 Ok I tried to post and hope I did it right. Walk the Line staring Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon chronicling the love of Johnny cash and June carter. Though nothing can BE the original I think this came as close as it could. I would have like to see even more music in the movie (they skipped "Boy named Sue" for cryin out loud) but I am just a bit biased. Overall, if you like Cash this was well worth the $4.29 rental fee.

They skipped"Boy Named Sue"?! What were they thinking. Did they at least include "Folsom Prison Blues"?

TheJenn88 Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 Well ya they got folsom prison in there a few times. I actually wouldn't mind hearing Pheonix and witherspoon spew out few more hits!!! I saw the movie in the theatre and loved it. I came home and downloaded some of the songs in the movie. Whee. Quote

Awesome tizz ,thanks for the review. We have the movie coming on netflixx. Quote .
snafu Posted March 6, 2006 Posted March 6, 2006 I watched Walk the Line this weekend. I like most documentaries and had high hopes for this film. So I was a little disappointed. I knew Johnny Cash had drug problems but not to the extent they portrayed. Like tizz I really wished they would Quote "You can't stop insane people from doing insane things by passing insane laws. That's just insane!" Penn & Teller NEVER FORGOTTEN
tizz Posted March 6, 2006 Author Posted March 6, 2006 I was talking to my mom, thinking that his drug problem couldn't have been that bad. She has been a mad Cash fan since the beginning of his carreer and she said that sure enough he was probably WORSE than they portrayed him. She got to watch him perform trashed twice LOL Anyway, I had to buy a best of in the store yesterday just to introduce my daughter more to the man in black Quote "An intelligence that is not humane is the most dangerous thing in the world" Ashley Montague "No one should have to walk alone" Phuong Du "An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind" Ghandi "If I were asked to define an American in a single phrase, I would say 'An American is a person who has the right to be different' and I think that right is growing" William Manchester
skategreen Posted March 20, 2006 Posted March 20, 2006 I loved this movie. I thought it was very well done - and it stuck with me, and that doesn't happen often with movies - books, yes, movies, no. I liked it enough to zip over to the library and get 2 autobiographies of Johnny Cash, and a DVD of his music. Well worth the time spent watching it! Quote The thought manifests as the word. The word manifests as the deed. The deed develops into habit. And the habit hardens into character. So watch the thought and its ways with care. And let it spring from love, born out of concern for all beings. - Buddha
oldschool Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 I thought this movie left alot to be desired as far as the life story of J.Cash. Quote
tiredofwhiners Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 I thought this movie left alot to be desired as far as the life story of J.Cash. I agree i would have like them to run more of his life, not just till he made it. Besides Reece is HOT would always like to see more of her. Maybe they'll come out with a #2, they will have to get the same people to make it any good. Quote AA's for quitters...i'm no quitter!
cynthiaa89 Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 It was a damn good movie, and I dont say that about many movies. The actors didn't suck, and it actually had a story I gave a damn about. Quote "Life's tough, but it's tougher when you're stupid."
TommyGun1928 Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 I saw this movie in a plane, but couldn't really make it through the entire thing. Mind you, this was a 6-hour flight with nothing else to do, and it just drove me crazy. The plot was just so goddamned boring and tedious, and that Witherspoon bitch whose cockteasing skills cannot, thankfully, reach self-respecting human beings who have seen an actual attractive girl. I swear to God, there has never been a more boring movie ever made.The music wasn't all that ORGASMIC either, just some of the same boring rock and roll bullshit, but this time... on the big screen! I would love to watch this movie again, if by "watch" you mean "shit on" and by "movie" you mean "this pile of smegma". 'nuff said. Quote
RoyalOrleans Posted October 14, 2006 Posted October 14, 2006 This movie was gay. Ghey! Reece Witherspoon as a spearheaded chin. Look at it. Couldn't follow the movie for the damned thing. She's ugly as fuck. Quote To be the Man, you've got to beat the Man. - Ric Flair Everybody knows I'm known for dropping science.
