One Of Year's Best

Rating: 10/10 (10 June 2008)

Words could not describe how I felt when I left the theater after watching this masterpiece. The Coen brothers prove again their excellence in the art of film-making with No Country For Old Men, starring Tommy Lee Jones, Javier Bordem & Josh Brolin. The more I think about it, the more I realize how flawless this movie is.
Javier Bordem, along with the other actors, play magnificent parts. Bordem plays one of the most realistic sociopath characters I have ever seen, and for that matter acts as good as I have ever seen. For anyone to believe There Will Be Blood had a better villain they are far mistaken. Bordem does not show near any emotion whatsoever, his lines are very clever, and proves his one-track mind will stop at nothing. "You need to call it. I cannot call it for you. That would be unfair." For some to believe it a slasher film, or one you must watch more than once to fully understand is untrue. There is definitely violence, and plenty of it in a rather Coens-esq fashion, but the story is positively excellent and the plot speeds up rather normally for a great conclusion.
I tell anybody, preferably 14+, to check out this movie at least once. I went into it with just seeing the trailer once,no expectations, and I was blown away. A great, classic film, for sure to be watched by all.
