This masterful film will go down as one of the most criminally underrated masterpieces ever made. A powerful haunting movie that is packed with great performances...& also very very funny at times. Only the dim witted will be bored.

"Hello Bob" - a line so simple but it hits you because you understand how things are and know what's coming

Movie endings don't get better than this.

"There would be no eulogies for Bob, no photographs of his body would be sold in sundries stores, no people would crowd the streets in the rain to see his funeral cortege, no biographies would be written about him, no children named after him, no one would ever pay twenty-five cents to stand in the rooms he grew up in. "

I feel bad for Jesse but also for Robert. I came out of the movie with a strange sadness. I can't put my finger on it. But this movie is just the best movie ever made.

I think this whole movie was a eulogie for Bob.Bob was the main character and the one that the movie allowed us to explore.Jesse was more of a figure type,and the movie wanted us to perceive Jesse from the eyes of Robert Ford

What I love is that final line, about Robert trying to find the right words. Where Jessie James became legendary by a simple forgettable "Don't that picture look dusty." Robert Ford as he laid dying wanted to find a final dying sentence that would mean something. It didn't happen, because he was no legend like he wanted to be. Love this movie.

one of the most underrated movies ever

Here you have it, folks. The greatest movie ever made.

The narration is extremely well done in this movie.

- On Jesse's grave

"looking at his destiny in every king... and jack"

The ending of this film is absolutely heartbreaking; Robert Ford has to be the most fantastically tragic character ever portrayed in a western. There is no romance, no lesson in his passing. His fear, his vain ambition, and his self-deprication and reflection make him entirely believable and human. Sad. No other word for it. It's just a sad story.

i really felt sorry for Bob. What a masterpiece what a great movie. absolutely the best performance of Casey Affleck.

god, the narration from 2:43 on is absolutely heartbreaking. one of the most powerful endings i've ever seen.

I found this movie, not boring, but extremely moving. The James brothers and the others are not shown as card board characters with one dimensional personalities. For the the 'Fast and the Furious" crowd this film is boring, but this film has attempted to take us back to another time of U.S. history. I was born and raised in a rural area and this film nails it. For most of the U.S. history, for the younger people, most people did not live in cities,but in small towns or alone on farms/ranches/etc.

One of my all time favourite scenes in cinema.

This movie was and is a modern classic. Masterpiece and art.

And the moral is never meet your heroes, kids.

In this scene unfolds one of the most brilliantly written character pieces of modern cinema. Nick Cave and Warren Ellis have broken the rules of soundtrack making. Normally incidental music, soundtrack music aims to describe a situation, paint a mood or reveal the inner recesses of an elusive character. Song for Bob does the impossible... With its slow moving melody, it's languorous strings pleading us to open our heart. We are asked to feel sympathy for this character who we come to accept as been played by forces bigger then him and robbed of his dreams of friendship and his destiny of glory.
