The remake of "True Grit" is one of the Coen Brother's best. It tells the story Mattie Ross, played by Hailee Steinfeld, who tries to find his father's killer. She gets help from a U.S. Marshal named Rooster Cogburn, played by Jeff Bridges. They set out on a journey through the wilderness on horseback to find Tom Chaney, played by Josh Brolin, to try to kill him to avenge Mattie's father's death. With the help of a man named LBoeuf, played by Matt Damon they will try their best.
This film is spectacular mainly because of the cast and the Coen Brothers. Josh Brolin is the villain in this film but regardless he does a fantastic job and any role he is given is great. Matt Damon has been around for awhile and he is also spectacular. "Good Will Hunting," "The Departed" and "True Grit" are only three films that he has been that were amazing. Jeff Bridges and Hailee Steinfeld were nominated for Oscars for this film and they deserved it. Jeff bridges is always fantastic in any role, and this film he spot on, and also hilarious. This was Hailee Steinfeld's first film and she was amazing. I was pulling for her to win the Oscar because she was gutsy, entertaining, and she was exciting to watch in this film. And the Coen brothers did an amazing job for this remake. They are the best in business, and any actor would die for a role in one of their films. They are geniuses. This film should be apart of their legacy.
Grade = 89/100 = B+
