Just a Bad Movie

Rating: 1/10 (10 March 2008)

I'll Summarize the Movie for Everybody...
The main idea of the film: "The world isn't a nice place, things often don't go the way you wish they did."
The Characters:
Ed Tom (Tommy Lee): He is the "Old man" from the title. Just a small town sheriff that realizes he is getting too old for the job and can't take it anymore.
Llewelyn (Brolin): Just a Redneck that comes across 2 million dollars from drug dealers and decides to keep the money for himself.
Chigurh (Bardem): A Flesh-and-bone Terminator with a Cute Channel hair-do and a silenced Shotgun.
Carson Wells (Harrelson): Just a Guy in a Texan suit.
The Story: A drug deal go wrong. Llewelyn finds and keeps the money from this deal. Chigurh is hired to retrieve the money. Chigurh is bad, so bad that he kills (for no reason) the middle men who gave him his assignment. Llewelyn runs from Chigurh, Chigurh chases him. The (assumed) kingpin, that hired Chigurh, after knowing he is a nut-case and killed his middle-men, hires Carson to go after the money and after Chigurh. Carson is a second-hand Vietnam veteran in a Texan suit. His role in the film is to be one of Chigurh's victims. Carson dies, The Kingpin dies, Llewelyn dies (by the hands of uncredited Mexicans) and Chigurh is left on the loose. Ed Tom's role in the movie is to talk in a Texan accent, to complain about how violent the world is nowadays and to show he is too old for the job. The End.
This Movie doesn't make you think. It only hides from the viewers information that he can deduce for himself. There is no deeper questions or anything like that. There is no point at all. The only two things you can expect from this movie are: Nice images from Texas (to be fair I have to say that the movie has some really nice screen shots and the Photography is great) and Violence.
