A very dull film at every level

Rating: 1/10 (15 February 2008)

How can films of such low grade receive top marks by viewers and critics? If this is really one of the best films of 2007 then from now on we might as well not bother watching any films at all.
The plot was ridiculously impossible and shallow, the kind of thing that can appeal to kids but I fail to see how any adults could possibly find it interesting.
The character played by Tommy Lee Jones was the worst, he came across as a retiring coward who though a high ranking local law man responsible for keeping things in order in his patch he appeared totally negligent in his duties. In the real world he would have been in deep trouble for abandoning his line of duty, rather than happily engage in pseudo- philosophical thoughts. But the Cohen brothers can dream on.
As for the end it was an absolute anti climax, a painful failure. Overall: what a waste of time it was watching this crappy wreck of a film.
