Time creates a land where weak not instead

Rating: 8/10 (22 April 2017)

The contemplative, poetic and visceral vision of the Coen brothers to aging, "Where the weak have no time" talks about social degradation, loss of value and defeat against time, you may see only two men hunting and even realizing that The protagonist of the film is Ed Tom Bell (Tommy Lee Jones), a sheriff lost with the advance of crime and murder of good manners, Coen shows us the extreme of the cliché in his contemporary western, but he does it with a masterful beauty. The film tells the story of Ed Tom Bell (Tommy Lee Jones), a Texan sheriff of the 80s who finds himself looking for Llewelyn Moss (Josh Brolin), a typical hunter who comes across and steals a bag full of Scene of a crime, but his bad luck is that the complete psychotic Anton Chigurh (Javier Bardem) that turns the hunter into prey. The script is confusing to create a plot so sharp and attractive that completely erases us from the real sense and moral of the film, do not get me wrong, I love the hunt and think the way it is ruled magisterial, but maybe even the most Watching the end of the movie with the feeling of being betrayed, and every time the script tries to use metaphor completely from the climate of the film that it creates, apart from being disorganized and disjointed are to create a context that already There are but few realized, that is, the script is so clever and closed in himself, that he has a life of his own to a point that he chooses to tell the story attractive and drown his morale. Among other criticisms contained in the film we are criticizing ethnic diversity, social degradation in favor of violence, gaining the loss of identity, submission for profit, and especially, the loss of strength for the time that with its renewal creates A land where the weak have no turn. The big technical truffle of the film is its cameras, its angles are completely perfect, the film does not need dialogue because the camera constantly talks with the viewer, it guides us, shows us the way, how we should follow, what we should observe, the Coen brothers really make the camera a door to the movies in this movie, although they also have a good picture with a more red palette, a spectacular editing and sound mixing, because the sound in the movie is something very important, the car key beating On the ignition is audible, and this is admirable, and this magnificent sound mix stifles the fact that the soundtrack is hidden. All the performances of the film are very good, but we can not speak of Javier Bardem, who plays a psycho without expressing any feelings, his acting is freezing, unlike all the great acts of psychopaths, Javier is authentic, he is Calm, it transmits terror, fear and insecurity to the viewer, and his acting is what helps, and a lot in the rhythm of the movie. Finally, we have a great movie, which has a great script, that confuses itself, and I think the film transpocición I980 is precarious, and its end is unnecessary, it is not wrong or cruel, it tries to be metaphorical and fails , He gets lost in what he wants to talk about, and 80% of people will feel betrayed by the film when they finish, although it was understandable to me, it's unnecessary, but even with these problems we have what is for me the best contemporary western, Film with great performances, excellent technical resources, attractive, contemplative and beautiful.
