Country Strong Critics Reviews



Critics Reviews Average Grade:   C+
Source Brief Review Grade*
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
"...a throwback, a pure, heartfelt exercise in '50s social melodrama..." more... B-
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
"...my God is this script predictable." more... C  
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
"It shows that Gwyneth knows the spangly high-powered joys of country music. Too bad that in Country Strong, she's too busy acting out the hysterical and mostly nonsensical sorrows." more... C+
Hollywood Reporter
Kirk Honeycutt
"Country weak." more... C  
Los Angeles Times
Betsy Sharkey
"The story is an all-too-familiar one, that deadly cocktail of too much fame and too much drink for someone who's lost touch with who she really is anymore." more... C+
USA Today
Claudia Puig
"...feels powerfully familiar" more... B-
