Mjeteconer Just perfect...
SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
vchimpanzee At the start of the movie, Jimmy Wayne Collins is writing the lyrics for the song "Noble Things" in his 1965 Ford pickup. Then we see what happened to him three years earlier. He and his brother Kyle and their friends are having too good a time riding around in a pickup truck, and when the cops start following the guys throw things at the cop car.When the guys get stopped one of the cops is a surprisingly good-looking woman and she wants to arrest them. Fortunately, Claire doesn't necessarily get her way because Pete, the sheriff and the father of Kyle and Jimmy Wayne, shows up and, after a stern lecture, seems to want to go easy on them.Back in the present Jimmy Wayne's truck finally gives out and he has to hitch a ride back to Texas. Moses, who he meets in a restaurant, is reluctant to pick up a stranger but he finally agrees to. I'm never sure just what the mentally disturbed man with Moses is there for.We keep seeing flashbacks, and Jimmy Wayne is about to become a big country star. Back in the present, though, he seems to have been a one-hit wonder, and his father is dying of cancer but continues to smoke. So does Jimmy Wayne, who doesn't seem to have learned from his father's misfortune. Claire is acting sheriff and helping take care of Pete. Jimmy Wayne steps in to help as well, and while he would like to have a good relationship with his father at the end, Pete doesn't make it easy. Meanwhile, Jimmy Wayne's ex Amber, Claire's sister, is in an abusive relationship with the father of her young son Brandon. And Kyle is in prison. It appears he shouldn't be there and Jimmy Wayne feels it is his duty to solve that problem. Jimmy Wayne's life is a country song. And there are a lot of good country songs in this movie, and some not so good. I don't want to give away anything about the ending, but it doesn't make me happy. And yet it is great. There are plenty of good acting performances. Michael Parks is one of the standout actors as Pete, while Lee Ann Womack does surprisingly well as Claire. Brett Moses is capable of carrying the movie as Jimmy Wayne. And Ron Canada is great as the truck driver.It's a worthwhile effort, just as touching and just as miserable as a country song.
rick Sturgess We had a great time watching the Noble Things. I'm Lee Ann Womack fan. I thought she did a great job as the Sheriff of a small Texas Town. She was very believable. I was disappointed that she was not singing on the soundtrack but it has good songs on it all the same. The movie reminded me of where I grew up in Jackson, Mississippi. It also brought feelings of watching my close relatives pass away. The actors had powerful performances. Michael Parks is great as the stubborn old man. Ryan Herst from my favorite show Sons of Anarchy is good to as the brother. Dominique Swain does a great job as the long lost girl friend. The guy playing the country singer was awesome. The fighting part is my favorite part of the movie! Oh, and the ending was a huge surprise.
aimless-46 Brett Moses wrote, produced, directed, and starred in this film; which seems to be about a bunch of really silly people with no "acting for the camera skills", who hang out in a honky-tonk bar in Jefferson County, Texas. To his "credit", Moses soft peddles his starring role and lists Michael "Bronson" Parks, Lee Ann Womack, Ryan Hurst, and Dominique Swain ahead of him on the promotional material; despite the fact that he is in every single scene and only Womack has a substantial part in the production (although she does not sing).This is the sort of production where you can almost pick out the point where the crew finally flipped and realized it was a train wreck in the making. Then they begin secretly laughing at the writer and director, who in this case is the same poor guy. To their credit, the crew still managed to maintain their professionalism throughout the production and should get high marks for their hard work, which must have seemed like a huge waste to them. But it is one of those sow's ears to silk purse things where you just can't do much with such a hopeless script.This over-wrought melodrama has something to say but doesn't do a very good (or entertaining) job of saying it. It might have worked as a Texas style parody of a Tennessee Williams play but I think the comedy is entirely unintentional.Potential viewers would be wise to be skeptical regarding the 10 star favorable comments about the movie which seem to have been posted by people associated with the production who have commented "only" about this one film.
Becky Gallagher A must see movie! I think this is a movie that everybody can relate to at some point and time in their life. You will feel as if you're a part of the movie. I mean let's face it; we have all done something in our lives that has been pushed to the limits or reckless. And we have all had regrets about something we wish we could change. One minute you are laughing and the next minute you have tears in your eyes. It's been a long time since I have seen a movie that made me cry with so much action, and funny business of our youth, yet so many serious and sad moments. I was very impressed with the story line that packed a punch right to my heart. The back ground music (Sound Track) and oh yes "The Lord's Prayer" just at the right moment made the entire movie a hit in my book. I thought the characters were very engaging and the performances excellent, they drew me into the story from the beginning right up until the credits- and then kept me crying for quite some time after it had ended. This film soared past any expectations that I had for it from the start with all the previews I've seen, by being very well written, directed, and acted. Noble Things was extremely well constructed and I would give it a score of an eleven out of ten. Brett Moses hmmm looks dang good with dirty water all over his shirtless body. I loved it and plan on adding it to my DVD collection. Thank you Brett for selecting and sharing your movie with all your family and friends of southeast Texas.
