Really I also agree with those three movies. This movie is useful for some people. And I like it so much.

My favourite movie was Shutter Island
Followed by Inception, The Other Guys and Toy Story 3
white Boy:
true grit was not what i expected, i thought it was gonna be a dark coen brothers movie, i mean the dude killed it but in general it was kinda a bit too insincere
Halu Sination:
- The Town
- Inception
- Toy Story 3
Still haven't seen The Fighter or True Grit

True Grit was a solid movie. The little girl's part was a bit ridiculous. No fourteen year old girl today is that highly educated, to think a girl 100+ years ago could of been that educated period is a bit far fetched; but outside of that, it was a good movie.
It got a little away from the original one with John Wayne. This one was more focused on the little girl where the old one was about John Wayne's character. Also, if I correctly recall, Matt Damon's character never leaves them to "do his own thing" & he also died at the end of the original.
A "B" movie.

I'd give it a solid A minus. My only real complaint was it was a bit short in the middle.
And you'd be surprised how educated a 14 year old girl could be in those days given the circumstances. She'd have been the oldest girl who attended school and would have to look after things when her traveling father was away. Another year and she could have been a wife.
My father was 12 when his father left Greece to come to Canada with the older son. That left my father as the oldest male of the house in Greece. He would have to trade and barter on his own for two years before my grandfather saved up enough to send for the rest of the family. For two years my dad would take up to two week trips alone in the country roads and forests with nothing but a mule and a shot gun, at 12. I couldn't imagine being alone at night in the wild at 28, much less 12. We grow up a lot slower in this modern society.
Also language and grammar have been all but forgotten in modern schools. They spend too much time teaching us gay rights, global warming, and recycling. The average 10 year old from a 1920s British school would no more about the English language with regards to speaking and writing than I would right now. The second teachers forgot they were just teachers and not '9 to 3:30' substitute parents; it all went to shit.
