Ok film with a bad twist at the end that didn't really truly make sense.

I would give this trainwreck an 85 for mere the enjoyability of it, which is camp of the purest and highest order. The director truly thought she was making a profound tale on fame, love and country legacy right? I enjoyed myself so so much seeing this.

"Remember when country music meant something to narrative filmmaking, when a tortured, soulful song put to film could document the doubts and dimensions of an entire generation?" - Glenn Heath Jr.

Gwyneth Paltrow must be a great actress because, as country singer Kelly Canter in Country Strong, she seems totally unaware of her insurmountable blandness.

The heavy issues and complex relationships portrayed in within were not what I expected, and didn't seem to fit well within the context of the fame and glamour of a country music star's tour. It would have worked better as an indie drama set in a small town. The performances were ok but maybe too many subplots vying for attention. Ultimately there was little emotional impact. Also the music used in the film was underwhelming and too often cut short. So, quite weak despite several good elements.

Country musical weepie isn't exactly my idea of a good time, but it's competently put together at least.
