This movie was mostly great.
Great cast. Debuting on the big-screen, actress Hailee Steinfeld plays the role of Mattie wonderfully.
Favorite scene: Mattie crosses the river on Little Blackie.
I didn't feel the emotional levels I thought the movie might have been able to bring to the table.
I'm not too fond of the ending, because it lacked feeling.

Reading my own comments above, I would interpret my opinion of the movie as above average. In fact, my comments had compelled me to watch the movie for second time.

I suppose by my dislike of the ending in my previous entry, I mean the part after the 1 hour 40 minute mark. In any case, I'd like to say that I like this movie most for Hailee Stenfield's performance of Mattie. I can't believe she was only 14 years old at the time this film was released. I look forward to seeing her in films to come.
My favorite scene after Mattie crossing the river on Little Blackie is the scene at the end before the 1 hour 40 minute mark.
My favorite dialogue exchange is the collection of Mattie doing business with the livestock man. This includes claiming her father's saddle and purchasing a pony.
If you're hankering for a western, then you should check this movie out.

2: "I thought you was gonna say the sun was in your eyes. That is your eye."
2: Oh, Josh Brolin plays the role of Tom Chaney.
2: "Keep your seat, trash."
