Johnny Cash was a genius and the story of his life is definitely worth telling. 'Walk the Line' does the job and then some.

Joaquin Phoenix not only acts and looks like a young Johnny Cash, but mimics his singing voice so accurately, it’s hard to tell the difference. If that's not enough, Reese Witherspoon's imitation of June Carter is even better.

It was an amazing movie. so sad, inspirational and moving.

It tells the life story of Johnny Cash (Joacquin Phoenix) as a musician, from his depressing childhood, to starting his career as a musician, to his downfall on drugs and his love June Carter (Reese Witherspoon).

This film was really emotional and was very touching with all the characters involved. I had never heard about Johnny Cashs life until I saw this film for the first time.

Despite of how depressing the film is, it is also a very beautiful film too about love and friendship too.

A very good movie

“A biopic is not always synonym with success, at least, not in my book. However, some of them are really good and this flick is definitely one of them. To be honest, if there is one musical genre with which I don't feel any connection whatsoever, that would be definitely Country (the way 'Country Strong' completely underwhelmed me would be another proof or maybe the movie just plain sucked, take your own pick). Still, even though I don't like the genre, Johnny Cash remains a very intriguing figure and he has made some pretty bad-ass songs. The fact that I didn't know much about Cash made the whole thing even more appealing to me. To start with, I had never been really impressed by James Mangold so far ('Identity', 'Kate & Leopold', 'Girl, Interrupted', 'Cop Land'), but his directing was rea” read more
