True Grit (2010)

****½
This is a weird one, I had no idea it was being made, let alone released. So when the trailer hit the screens I kind of thought it looked a bit rushed. How wrong was I? This could be a contender for film of the year already (along with Never Let Me Go and 127 Hours). The Coen's  have hit me again. Wonderful performance all round but special praise to Hailee Steinfeld, she was magnificent. I'd also like to pay a special mention to the humour, this film is hilarious in parts. Non more so than when Bridges keeps launching the kids off the front porch. Genius!
