Jeff Bridges was good in this film but it didn't really do it for me, found it boring really and the relationship between Bad Blake and jean to me isent that beliveable, not sure why you'd fall for an older man who constantly drinks and smokes and by the look of it doesn't even wash. Not one of the best films ive seen, not very interesting or creative. 7/10

Jeff Bridges puts in a superb performance but the central relationship with Jean isn't quite believable.
