Ho hum. I have not much to say about this film. I found it pretty boring from beginning to end. It was the classic biopic of someone making it big from their smalltown roots, messing it all up with addiction and then finally finding saviour in the love of a good woman.
It probably wasn't best that I didn't really care about Johnny Cash and have never been the biggest fan of his music. I wasn't that impressed by Joaquin Phoenix's impersonation and I think it is an absolute travesty that Reese Witherspoon won the Oscar for this when there were much, much stronger performances nominated; by this I mean Felicity Huffman (see Transamerica review, coming soon.)
I was not in the least impressed. And it went on for too long. 3.5
