TYT Reviews Crazy Heart Starring Jeff Bridges & Maggie Gyllenhaal

[belwaters]

These critics are cluless. Gyllenhaal falling for Bad Blake is totally believable. Plenty of women out there who fall for "bad boys" - be they alcoholics, drug addicts, abusive, whatever - and if he's a talented musician, the women fall harder. Many women who come from dysfunctional backgrounds seek out unstable men and are irresistibly attracted to them, even if he's 20, 30 years older.

The Wrestler was much harder and brutal.

Crazy Heart is much more tender.

I give these critics 2.6/10

Great performances. Mediocre movie.

The very first scene, when Bad Blake sits at the bar in the bowling alley, I was waiting for Sam Elliot to sit next to him and say, "Take her easy Dude."

[bobbytiger]

Cenk.

If you, and your two lady friends generally panned the movie,

I expect that I, (like most of the professional reviewers),

will completely enjoy it.

[skinnywhop87]

Isn't jeff bridges usually in comedies?

[ERoBB1]

Not really. Although his best role was arguably as The Dude in The Big Lebowski.

[OfficialDjHits]

They really should stop reviewing movies, honestly your all fucking terrible.

Terrible.

[signeyberg]

why is ben harping on this "impossible romance" ? bad blake is charming, talented, and "somewhat famous," despite being an out-of-shape, aging alcoholic with his career going down the tubes. hello? "together" women fall for this type of man all the time, especially when they're actually not as together as they seem. why is there not a woman on this panel... or a man with a little more perspective?

[wesscoast]

The Great Buck Howard sucked monkey balls.

[username123232]

uhhh uhhh uhhh ben is a professional film critic. it just seems like he's reminiscing. please get this pretentious asshole off tyt.

[wesscoast]

yeah, that guys a douche. he sounds really jaded about his life too ha

[alizee2010]

He was godawful on "At the Movies." Granted, he looked relatively good next to scumbag, douchebag extraordinaire Ben Lyons. Anybody would look relatively good next to him. Still, if he was not from a famous family, Ben would not be on TCM, TYT, or ATM.

need willie belson and jabe finda 30 years ago

[minion023]

"simile portion of the SAT's" its "analogy" portion dumbass, he gave you an analogy. And btw, they've been taken out since 2005.

[odom602]

PLEASE STOP DOING PUFF PIECES nobody gives a shit about what movie who is in...we care about the real matters...

[jotunobsidianeyes]

What these guys don't realize is that women can be really desperate and go for someone way beneath them. That's especially true of single mothers. It sounds bad but I've seen it countless times. No, and not in that way.

[hollaboutit]

why is jeff bridge's main character a alcoholic? or slacker? just sayin....

[jotunobsidianeyes]

@hollaboutit Or president.

[banonKING]

Ahhh... that's where I've seen Ben from, Turner Classic Movies.

[zenguin13]

I had to go back three times to understand that Cenk was saying He'd seen the movie before and it was called "The Wrestler".

Ironic ain't it?

[TimesEyes]

Ironic?

[hatersfate2]

I am your God, worship me with thumbs up

[acebunny17]

oh no,that douche from "at the movies" is here,fuck this video.

[LegendaryFrost]

JESUS IS NOT MY SANTA!

[ibwilliamsi]

@LegendaryFrost Santa is not my Jesus! Buddha is!

[PainAddict666]

"I feel, I feel, I feel..." over and fucking over again by Matt, ugh! ...and he sort of disses The Big Lebowski! Jeeezus, what an asstard. That movie is so funny, packed with over the top dialogue and subtle humor.

[KCB132]

jimmybrite-

How dare a critic disagree with me?

[jimmybrite]

Seriously Matt, you ragging on Lebowski, you just lost all credibility, it's not like I ever go on Rotten Tomatoes but I'll definitely boycott that shit site.

[CmdrSloanne]

I agree tyt movie reviews are a good addition to the show..

[dior1985]

I like TYT movie reviews!

[rpVerlaine]

great film!

[bballadante]

Wow, the comments are slacking. Pick it up!

[AlicexMarilyn]

I love it when you guys review movies, and I always look forward to seeing Ben on TCM.
