Editorial Review:
After 25 chart-topping hits, the singing star becomes a movie star! George Strait makes his film debut in an entertaining look into the heart and soul of country music from Young Guns director Christopher Cain.
Superstar Dusty Chandler (Strait) is tired of the smoke, the strobe lights and the overmiked sound of his arena spectaculars. One night, something snaps. "I'm just going to take a little walk," Dusty says as he walks out of the empty hall, ditching his beard, ponytail - and temporarily, his career - to reclaim his down-home country roots. But his manager (Leslie Ann Warren) retaliates: a stand-in (Kyle Chandler) lip-synchs his songs in concert. And a romance with a lovely rancher (Isabel Glasser) is on again, off again like a rodeo cowboy. The simple life can be complex, but it's nothing a revitalized country boy can't handle!
Pure Country Reviews:
Some decent music but otherwise pretty corny 
2009-12-16 - George Strait makes a decent screen debut in this otherwise boring, by-the-numbers story about a country music star who decides to take a break from the bright lights of fame and go back to his rural roots. The other actors such as Leslie Ann Warren pretty much just go through the motions in this mostly predictable and not very believable film. It may be worth seeing if you're a fan of old-fashioned love stories or country music (and some of the music here is pretty good, even for this non-country fan:) ), but if you want an original and exciting film, look elsewhere.

2009-10-22 - I can watch this movie over and over and never tire of it. George Strait is the most appealing man ever created.
The name says it all! 
2009-09-03 - If you love country music than you'll without a doubt love George in this video. The name says it all "Pure Country" is what it is! Highly recommend this video for your collection.
King George rules! 
2009-05-09 - As a musician myself, this film really hits home. George Strait needs to make more movies. I think a western would be great for him. But this movie is good and worth watching and owning.
