Boxoffice Magazine -
Smartly emphasizing Portis' quirky dialogue and dark comic tone, the Coens show the flare that made them famous.

The New Yorker -
For the Coens, the plot elements are a given; the telling is all. [20 & 27 Dec. 2010, p. 144]

ReelViews -
The Coens have fashioned one of the best Westerns in recent years - a modern reworking of a classic that never feels superfluous.

Entertainment Weekly -
Truer than the John Wayne showpiece and less gritty than the book, this True Grit is just tasty enough to leave movie lovers hungry for a missing spice.

The Hollywood Reporter -
Well-made and acted Coen Brothers remake lacks the humor and resonance that might have made it memorable.

True Grit (2010)
Following the murder of her father by hired hand Tom Chaney, 14-year-old farm girl Mattie Ross sets out to capture the killer. To aid her, she hires the toughest U.S. Marshal she can find, a man with "true grit," Reuben J. "Rooster" Cogburn. Mattie insists on accompanying Cogburn, whose drinking, sloth, and generally reprobate character do not augment her faith in him. Against his wishes, she joins him in his trek into the Indian Nations in search of Chaney. They are joined by Texas Ranger LaBoeuf, who wants Chaney for his own purposes. The unlikely trio find danger and adventure on the journey, and each has his or her "grit" tested.
