Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Country Strong is dead on arrival.
Rotten: Unfortunately weak.
Rotten: Patsy Cline. Loretta Lynn. Gwyneth Paltrow.
Rotten: [A] disjointed drama filled with one-dimensional characters and melodrama so Lifetime movie-esque that it careens into unintentional comedy.
Customer Reviews
Great Movie with Great Music!
It's funny to me how people have a sense that they know what they're judging when they haven't even seen this movie..just because you see the word "Country" doesn't mean that it's all downhill from there. I do hair and make-up in the entertainment industry and let me be the one to tell you that this was an exact portrayal of what some artists go through. It hit my heart so strong that other than just looking at what recording artists do for a living, I look at them as the people they once were and long to become... Gwyneth Paltrow and the cast were amazing and gave it their all! The music speaks for itself and is one of those soundtracks that you can play over and over again. The Oscar nomination for "Coming Home" was a well deserved nomination! Truth be told, Great Movie and Great Music!
