Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/5 --
A wonderfully easy, confident and muscular performance from Jeff Bridges - so easy, confident and muscular that it doesn't look like acting at all - saves this movie from being pure sentimental mush.

Guardian
It's not possible to flaw Bridges here. Akin to Falstaff, the detail of his characterisation - from stagger to cough to swagger to song - is fascinating. But he needs more thorough contextualisation to fly.
Little White Lies
Crazy Heart is a wonderful picture that will immediately affect you and hold your interest to the very end.

The Atlantic
4 stars out of 5 -- [P]layed with a strength of feeling....It is deceptively affecting; a classic both in form and quality -- this year's THE WRESTLER.
Empire
3 stars out of 5 -- [A] poignant portrait of a washed up country singer....It's Bridges himself who makes this straightforward amble down the rocky road to redemption one worth taking...
Total Film
Bridges' humane, deeply empathetic lead performance makes it easy to root for one man's redemption. -- Grade: B+
A.V. Club
Rating: 4/5 --
This turn from the perennially settled and contented Bridges is pure acting. It is the best performance of the past 12 months, and indeed possibly the next.

Product Description:
Jeff Bridges stars in this drama based on Thomas Cobb's first novel about an alcoholic country singer. The musician's career is going downhill as he watches his protégé's star ascend, but his encounters with a journalist (THE DARK KNIGHT's Maggie Gyllenhaal) might just keep him from hitting rock bottom. Oscar winner Robert Duvall costars and serves as one of the film's producers.
