The movie follows grumpy, pot-bellied U.S. marshal 'Rooster' Cogburn and a Texas Ranger, who are hired by stubborn 14-year-old Mattie Ross to track down Tom Chaney, who killed her father in Indian territory.

It's mostly Wayne all the way. He towers over everything in the film.

Lazily directed by Hathaway, it's pleasant enough, if rather too self-consciously coy.
December 01, 2010
By growing old disgracefully as the fat, swaggering Rooster Cogburn, Wayne proves he can act -- and solves his own senior-citizen problem in one master stroke.

One of the glories of True Grit is that it recognizes Wayne's special presence.

If I had to pick only one True Grit movie to take to the proverbial desert island, it'd be Hathaway's, Wayne's, Ballard's and, while we're at it, Elmer Bernstein's...

Far too often for True Grit to quite overcome, [Wayne's] larger-than-life turn flirts with, if not outright topples into, self-parody.

An undeniably vivid, exceedingly well directed (by veteran Henry Hathaway) frontier tale that "tells it like it was."

Maybe it is not great cinema, but it is great entertainment.

The girl with the strength of a man, and the man with a sensitive heart (albeit under layers of crust). The calculated softening of Wayne's macho persona at long last won him the Oscar. [Blu-ray]

Somehow it comes off like a TV celebrity roast.

A marvelously rambling frontier fable packed with extraordinary incidents, amazing encounters, noble characters, and virtuous rewards.
