Just watched it the third time. Man, what a movie. Have to give one more.
9/10
So let me get this straight. I enjoyed a film by Mathew McConahey (sp) and Reese Witherspoon? Sure did. Loved it and highly recommend it. One of the best of the year.

I loved Jeff Nichols Take Shelter and now this was equally amazing. Simple, solid and beautiful! I haven't seen Shotgun Stories yet but in my point of view he is becoming one of the most promising new directors. Can't wait to hear what Jeff Nichols is going to do next.
Above all this is a film about people, real life situations, relationships, love and trust.
The acting was great by all of the cast but Matthew McConaughey was outstanding and two children were so good! Those two boy are the heart of the film.
Cinematography also great with beautiful shoots over the Mississippi River.

A nice slow burn that showcases great filmmaking and stellar performances. 2011-2012 is when Matthew McConaughey started showcasing darker roles and getting away from the romantic comedies and it paid off. I saw people call this Southern Gothic and I am not sure what that means but sounds perfect.
best 2013 movie so far
Great acting. Like it
Entertaining adventure movie, funny and thrilling. Matthew McConaughey gives a good performance.
Wow my dudes! Cool vibe I kinda dig the homeless/advanterous wanted person vibe. Matt's voice fits the bill! Loved the chemistry betwween Mud and da kidz.
A decent film with a fine cast and good action and tye sheridan with a good performance, definitely grown up into a good actor today.
Beautifully filmed Coming-of-Age tale on the Mississippi River.
