SYNOPSIS/PLOT

Aging marshal Rooster Cogburn (Jeff Bridges) is hired by young girl Mattie Ross (Hailee Steinfeld) to find her father's killer, Tom Chaney (Josh Brolin). A ranger from Texas named LaBoeuf (Matt Damon) will help them... New adaptation from Charles Portis' novel. Henry Hathaway directed the same story in "True Grit" (1969). Now Jeff Bridges will star as aging sheriff Reuben J. 'Rooster' Cogburn, played by John Wayne in the old classic.

PRO REVIEWS

----------------------------------------
"The brothers absorb the unfairly unsung Portis into their DNA, like they did with Cormac McCarthy in "No Country for Old Men." (...) Great movie (...) Rating: ***1/2 (out of four)" (Peter Travers: Rolling Stone)

----------------------------------------
"Well-made and acted Coen Brothers remake lacks the humor and resonance that might have made it memorable" (Todd McCarthy: Variety)

----------------------------------------
"A comic-serious tale about some nasty, brutish times. (...) Like Charles Laughton’s “Night of the Hunter,” which the Coens quote both musically and visually, “True Grit” is a parable about good and evil" (Manohla Dargis: The New York Times)

----------------------------------------
"True Grit isn't as momentous an event as you might hope, but once you adjust to its deliberate rhythms (it starts slowly), it's a charming Western comedy" (David Edelstein: New York Magazine)
