It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

"Pure Country" didn't exactly light the box office on fire when it was released to theaters, despite it starring country music superstar George Strait. It's easy to see why upon actually watching the movie for yourself. The script is the main offender here. It is packed with clichés that would have seemed old hat to moviegoers several decades earlier. What makes the hoary story even worse is that it's stretched out past the breaking point; there's no reason why this retelling had to be almost two hours in length. Despite this great length, there seems to be footage that is missing, from linking footage to footage that would have given Strait's character some depth and personality. This may explain why Strait's performance is pretty bad; while he's not the worst singer-turned- actor I've seen, his acting is really subdued and lacks passion. As for the music, I wasn't really all that impressed, though I guess I should mention I've never been a big fan of country music. The only life to be found in the movie is when veteran actor Rory Calhoun is on the screen, though alas, he's given very little to do or work with.

I'm not a fan of modern country. I am more of a George Jones, Ray Price, Eddy Arnold kind of guy. I thought I would give this a shot because it sounded like a really good story.Certainly, the song "When Did You Stop Loving Me?" was the type of song I like. The King of Broken Hearts was magnificent, as was I Cross My Heart.George Strait can definitely act, and Isabel Glasser was someone I want to see more of.Sure, it was a little sappy, but the message was clear. Sometimes you have to go back to your roots and find out who you really are.

This movie was very enjoyable. I found the acting to be reasonable, the music great and the storyline believable. It held my attention for its entirety and watching it was a pleasure not a chore. I would definitely recommend it to country music lovers. The actors were credible in the roles and this movie contained no unpleasantness (eg unnecessary violence, swearing etc). This is a movie which could be enjoyed by all ages of viewer. It is a foot-tapping experience and was greatly entertaining. George Strait is an excellent country music singer and in this (his debut acting role) did a very good job. I would like to see any others he may have made since.

This is a wonderful and romantic movie. If you like country western music, this is for you. I have seen it at least a half a dozen times. George Strait has surprised me with his acting ability. he is such a wonderful country singer and I may mention that looking at him is eye candy too.I love the story. It contains no porno nor violence which is refreshing to me. Of course, this movie was made in 1992. Women and men both enjoy this film. After going to the theater to view it, I went out and purchased it. I think you will agree with me. You will probably go out and purchase the sound track CD.
