Top Critics Reviews

Unfortunately weak.

The movie isn't worth the scuffed cowgirl boots it's scooting around in.

rotten:
If Feste actually believes that this show is country nirvana, she has no business making a country movie.

rotten:
Shana Feste's screenplay seldom rises above the level of daytime TV; the only actor who triumphs over her trite dialogue is Tim McGraw in a nonsinging role as Paltrow's husband and manager.

rotten:
Paltrow gives it her best but is so conspicuously doing country. We're meant to believe she has spent half her life staring into a vodka bottle, but she glows like she's just stepped out of a yoga retreat.
