Wow!!! This is the most amazing movie I have seen in a long time. It`s very rare for movies to have such an incredibly strong impact, but this movie moved me beyond words. The two lead actors were just incredible and so believable. This is definately one to add to the collection. The best of the best.
I`ve got one word for this movie A M A Z I N G absolutely AMAZING. THE GREATEST MOVIE OF ALL TIME!!!!!!!!!! AWSOME
I almost didn`t go to see this movie, even though Johnny Cash is my hero. I figured if you had read the biographies, that the movie would be nothing special. I have since seen the movie 8 times in theater, and will be waiting at the doors the day this movie is released.
This movie really made me feel like i was there. Love the music and most of all the story. I can see why this movie is up for so many Oscars!
The singing was well done!
I sat mesmorized for two hours as I became entrenched in the world of Johnny Cash. The love that those to shared was palpable through the screen and tore at my heart-strings. Both actors should be commended for their outstanding performances...particularly Joaquin Phoenix who embodied Cash so compleltely...in a best actor Oscar category that seems to be quite the race Joaquin desserves the gold, if not for his acting alone then for his incredibly singing that puts him way above the rest! If Fox took it home last year, Phoenix should be oscarbound this year!
I loved this movie , My parents were big fans of Johnny and June Cash so because of hear all my life about them I decided that this was a movie I had to see just to get to know more about Johnny and June Cash for myself , even my parents didn`t know everything but this movie TOLD ALL we ever needed to know.....It was awesome
Its one of those movies when you think its going to be Ok...... But then it tures out to be GREAT!!!
This was an excellent acting performance by both Witherspoon, but especially Joaquin Phoenix. I felt it was the best male performance of the year.
comment I JUST LOVE THE MOVIE, WE SEEN IT THREE TIMES AND MAYBE WILL BE FOUR OR FIVE TIMES. JUST SO GOOD,AND JOAQUIN IS SOOOO CUTE!!!! AND SINGS GOOD TOO! JUST SO ENTERTAINING.......
best movie of 2005 and then some-love mr. phoenix!!!!!! i smell OSCAR
I truly enjoyed this movie. I was 13 when I Walk the Line became a big hit. The picture should have been nominated for BEST of the year. The acting by Reese and Joaquin was exceptional, especially since neither knew how to sing or play instruments before this role. The chemistry between them was magical!
While I`ve never been the hugest of Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash fans, I did know of their passionately long, all-consuming, tumultous relationship. This movie captured their romance brilliantly! More specifically, there were moments that I actually forgot I wasn`t watching Johnny Cash himself. Joaquin Phoenix so completely embodied Cash - especially when he was singing which, to me, is quite the feat itself! While Reese Witherspoon wasn`t nearly as entrenched in June Carter Cash`s persona, she was captivating and strangely mesmerizing. Their chemistry is palpalable and resonates for me long after the movie ended. Breathtakingly bea
A very good movie. A little slow at the beginning, but extremely good acting and great music. Quite enjoyable.
The actors embody their parts magnificently. Comparisons to other biographies pale. I was never the "Cash" fan my father was. I never knew their love story and that is the part of this movie that resonates long after seeing it and I believe that is why it is still showing in theatres long after the special effect and "big" movies have fallen away. People will always appreciate a good story told well by talented people. 5 Stars
The movie was just ok. If it was the best movie of the year, thank goodness it is just January. Does not even hold a candle to "Ray"
It was the best movie I seen this year, I`m now waiting for the DVD to come out.
Both Joaquin Phoenix & Reese Witherspoon embodied the roles of Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash. Joaquin had all of Johnny`s mannerisms down pat - it was uncanny. A phenomenal movie!
I love it so much! it was the greatest movie i have seen in a while. I love all of her movies, but i liked this one because she did an excellent job. I didnt know she could sing like that. Not only can she act but her voice is great. I brought the cd so i could hear her. Also i love Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash. Me and my papa used to listen to them all the time, and i was goin to go see the movie with him but before i could he pasted away,december 31. It was really hard but that movie is so special to me now cause it reminds me of him..i loved it so much!!!!
The best movie in years!
Awesome movie, Joaquin and Reese both played the parts perfectly. Joaquin especially played his part perfectly, he had the way Johnny sang and played the guitar, it`s no wonder why Joaquin and Reese are already winning awards for this movie. I`m hoping the movie and the actors clean up in the big awards shows as well. This movie is definately a 5 out of 5.
Great movie, must see! I think this will top my all time favorite movies, Joaquin and Reese did the movie justice. Go see this movie.
One of the best movies to be released.
Movie was decent, the leads were good but far from Oscar material. They should be thankful the Globes have a musical/comedy category. You won`t hate yourself for seeing this movie but true Cash fans will leave feeling slightly cheated.
Actor was woderfull.Great film,great actor..

very good singing and acting, A must see.
I`m going to buy the OST tomorrow! love the movie!!
better than "Ray"
Best Movie I Ever Seen!The acting and music was outstanding!
I loved this movie.... not only was it an honest portrayal of the business back than but also an honest portrayal of love and hardship... I went to see this movie originally for Reese... as I loved her in "Election" (one of her more serious roles.) However was blown away by Phoenix... to me he is the only Oscar contender this year... What`s up with druged up Rock Stars over coming there past & addictions... only later to have actors play them & win oscars for them.... Ray Charles- Jamie Fox= Oscar, Johnny Cash-Phoenix= Oscar... WOW all those drugs and they really did get it right. If he doesn`t win an oscar for this role I will be so mad... h
omg!!!! walk The Line is the best movie i`ve ever seen, i mean i realy loved it!!!!!!!! before this movie came out i realy didnt know that that much about Johnny Cash and June Carter, but ever scince i saw the movie i have become more interested about both of the them. So heres a tip to all of you, go see Walk The Line!!! it`s the best movie of the year! >>>>alli
it was great
THE BEST MOvIE OF THE YEAR
I loved the movie. It brought back to me the days of John and June and the TV show they had in the late sixties. I would love for some of those shows to be re-broadcast. Joaquin and Reese were wonderful. I saw it twice and bought the CD
Amazing movie, I left and went out and bought Johnny Cash music. Reese Witherspoone was fantastic. She`s a great actress and deserves to win all the awards they can bestow.
phoenix`s performance is by far one of the best of 2005-he was great in gladiator and ladder 49, but in this movie his talents are amazing-i feel OSCAR!!!!
The movie is certainly worth seeing but it`s not as good as Ray.
better than ray
Best Movie. Most Entertaining.
This movie was awsome better than "Ray" I will be crushed if Joaquin and Reese do not win oscars for best actor and best actress because they worked hard and they deserve something for it 1 000 000 thumb up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can`t wait to see it especially since it based on the greatest musician of all time Johnny Cash
I THINK THIS IS THE BEST MOVIE IVE SEEN ALL YEAR I LOVED IT, AWSOME, 2 THUMBS UP I LOVE REACE WITHERSPOON
