Movie Reviews of Johnny Cash: Hurt

Movie Review: Does Justice
Summary: 4 Stars

This isn't a full leingth film, nor a 90+ minute DVD of interviews, shows, or documentaries on the life of Johnny Cash. This is basically Johnny Cash doing his video for "Hurt." That's it. It's a single 4 minute video. While one would complain that this is far too much money to pay for 4 single minutes, it can also be gotten for about the same price with the cd/dvd edition of The Man That Comes Around.

What do I think of the video/song? It does justice to the original Trent Reznor version of 1994. And while not better than the original Nine Inch Nails hit, it sure does hold a candle to it, and atleast manages to keep burning while lit.

Buy it. Even if you're a fan of Nine Inch Nails and have never even gotten much into Johnny Cash, you'll probably enjoy this video/song for the simple fact that it pays homage to Trent Reznor. And while donig so, defanantly does the song justice.

Movie Review: Brilliant video, but DVD image quality not quite as high as hoped
Summary: 4 Stars

This was made in 2002 and I guess it was shot on analog video equipment since it's interlaced and there's some slight chroma noise. But I guess this is as good as you're going to get considering. Definitely an improvement over YouTube of course, but not by as much as I'd hoped. Still worth it just to see this brilliant video in better quality than you can get online. Wish they'd shot it on film so they could release an HD version. On the other hand, given the lyrics and the archival footage mixed in, maybe it's fitting that the image is a little flawed.

Movie Review: facing motality
Summary: 4 Stars

Cash really put it out there. Facing death, regrets, trying to reconcile the failures of his life. "you can have it all, my kingdom all of dirt." I was left with the realization that stuff, success, etc. is nothing. All that matters in the end is who we loved and who loved us.

Movie Review: Depressing
Summary: 2 Stars

The other reviews were so great I had to buy this DVD, later to find out I could watch it on "You Tube". It is a little bit longer than 4 minutes but if you really need to have it buy it used. The other reviews were so in awe of this but I found it sad and hard to watch.
