Saw No Country For Old Men tongiht...
    #7989250 -

Powerful film...incredibly violent, fascinatingly so. Anyone else seen it? Did you enjoy it? The ending came out of nowhere to me...I wasn't feeling like the movie was dragging at all, I thought it would go for another hour or so!

Javier Bardem was scary as hell.

It's unbelievably good imo.

So brutal and real.

That first death with the cop was so unexpected, I saw it stoned and it really shocked me in a way that movies usually don't.

And I did like the ending. Plus the action scenes were just awesome.

The first death sets the table. I'll never get shot out of my head...it'll probably haunt my dreams tonight.

This and There Will Be Blood were both just amazing, amazing films.

Yeah I saw There Will be Blood also. Very intense.

And the score by Johnny Greenwood was awesome.

Definitely, DEFINITELY see There Will Be Blood on the big screen. It's downright Kubrickian at times. Just epic in scale, such great cinematography, and an eerie, eerie score courtesy of Mr. Greenwood. Daniel Day Lewis is mindblowing...his performance, and Javier Bardem's, are interesting parallels...completely driven men.

The story was great until it left me hanging and wanting more.  :hehehe: I would like to see a movie using some of the same characters completely independant and unrelated to any of the events in this movie though.  The character developement was awesome.

Yeah I could just stare at There Will Be Blood and enjoy the acting if nothing else.

I saw it a few days ago. Thought it was excellent. It has one of the greatest villains ever depicted on film I think. That movie captivated me from start to finish.

I just got done watching Juno. Definitely on the opposite end of the spectrum compared to NCFOM but I loved it as well. I highly recommend both movies to anyone.

Fucking loved it.
Watched it for a second time today. Knowing how it ends makes watching it different, and watching it with people for their first time is humorous.

usually`the american public watches complete fuckin ggarbage. actually good, artistic movies ar tossed aside. of course the creators of this brilliance ar part of the 'new school' of really brillaint hollywood directors. icluding:

coen brothers: no country
chriatopher guest (smart comedy)
paul thomas anderson (5 academy awards)

no country, there wil be blood, into the wild, atonment, gone baby gone ...these are the movies which are good, entralling and should be blockeubsters

however the moron, fat droooling public drops all their cash on crap film filed with special effect. mezmorized by the pretty colors. like transfomers, which made soooo much money and has a fucking disgustlingly terrible script....fuck

Highlights:
"You don't know what your talking about." That poor fat old man.

"Where does he work?"
" I can't give you that information."
"Where does he work?"
" I just said..."
"Where does he work?"

Being inept at simple dealings with people myself, I loved the way this guy dealt with people and his inability at cordial conversations

Plus: Nothings cooler than a silenced shotgun. Brutal. Just to see what it does, without the loud distracting bang.

Drawbacks.
The ending was anti climatic tic, but such is life. (especially when it isn't your material)

No Country for Old Men = best Coen brothers film in years.

Funnily enough I watched it last night, slouched on my sofa with a cold and ear ache, full of painkillers - in a weird way it really cheered me up!

It felt and looked a lot like Blood Simple.

No Country was a DEEP fuckin film. It leaves you questioning life, and why we all fight within it when it's really just us against chance.
gah

but There Will Be Blood was a much harder pill to swallow. I loved it cause it's my kind of film, but there were many people in the theater with me who just walked out. I guess it's too slow for most people.
