Movie Reviews of The Jack Bull

Movie Review: " WOW ...I WAS SPEACHLESS"
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie will make you cry if your sensitive and will make a lump the size of Texas in your throat if your not.

Im not going to say alot about the plot (so I dont ruin it for you ) except that it takes the avenging a wrong theme to new heights.It will make you cheer for Cusak and feel for all his loss.

Cusak gives one of the most powerfull performances in a western ever. Bieng a huge Eastwood fan I can honestly say WOW.

A must see even If you dont like westerns.

Did I say WOW.

Enjoy


Movie Review: The Jack Bull - A lesson in Justice in the untamed West
Summary: 4 Stars

During this time period,the West was lacking in justice for the little man or one without money and power in politics. It showed the extent one man is willing to go in order to see justice done. John Cusack is excellent in his role of Merl. I don't recall seeing him play such a serious character in any film. John Goodman plays a just man, one I was sorry that Cusack's character couldn't have met up with sooner.

The formation of the early West was a brutal land, and many men died for what they believed in, whether over land wars, Indian issues or justice. I will recommend this movie to anyone, not just because of the moral issues involved, but because it's a story that needs telling, fiction or not.


Movie Review: Cusack's best performance yet. His character was alive!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

The plot was captivating, very interesting twists that took you off-guard. It truly holds your attention. The scenery was breathtaking! Being a fan of Cusack, I have seen pretty much all of his movies, this one tops them all in the category of plot and acting. (Of note: My favorite Cusack classic will always be: Say Anything, I have this movie and have seen it a thousand times. I actually quote from it on a regular basis.) Getting back to The Jack Bull, this movie lets you see the range Cusack has in his acting ability and allows you to see real growth in him as a talented actor. Kudos to you John! The one area that stands out in my mind was watching his anger....very believable and impressive. It was also good to see John Goodman on screen again, especially in the "morals" role. The ending was a bit disturbing and not what you expect, but it was a good fit to the overall plot. Thumbs up to Dick Cusack for creating such a wonderful movie as this, and for his talented kids!

Movie Review: Absolutely Fantastic
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie was on the Movie Network and I'm very glad I taped it at my Dad's suggestion. It got two stars in our TV Guide and I'm learning to never rely on it for it's opinions on quality films. This movie was fantastic, brilliantly acted, brilliantly directed, and extremely well written. The main theme of the film- honour and justice- was clearly carried through without being complicated or overly simplistic. John Cusack has never let me down and this movie is no exception. And, the Alberta mountains are as breath-taking a landscape as any. Go see this movie!

Movie Review: John Cusack at his finest
Summary: 5 Stars

My father saw this movie when it originally aired on TV and told me about it. So as soon as it was released on DVD I rented it. What can I say except, it was incredible. I would place this movie in the catagory of " The years best" John Cusack did an outstanding job. After learning his father had written the script, you could tell that John Put heart and Soul in to this part. Excellant acting, script, sets, plot! Kudos to Joihn Goodman also!
