True Grit (2010) rating: 6/10

Over-hyped this movie is a bit of a disappointment. More of a drama than action, there's a lot of dialog, and in the tradition of the Coen brothers, there are attempts at wit and irony. Is it word-for-word identical to the original with John Wayne? I don't know. My guess is even if it were, it is significantly inferior. Still, it's at least mildly entertaining.
