Variety
Justin Chang
That rare ensemble piece in which all four principals are not only compellingly drawn but handled with an astute sense of dramatic balance.

Country Strong is a charmer that makes you forgive all of its false notes simply because the talent plays them with conviction.

Country Strong feels powerfully familiar.

Roger Ebert
Country Strong is a throwback, a pure, heartfelt exercise in '50s social melodrama.

Owen Gleiberman
The film keeps throwing things at you: drunk scenes, adultery scenes, "All About Eve" rise-of-the-young-rival scenes. Yet despite the presence of some appealing actors, none of it quite adds up.
