Simple yet effective

Rating: 7/10 (12 August 2019)

In a cinematic culture obsessed with spectacle and wonder, No Country for Old Men lassos your leg and pulls you down to the ground that is real life. No tricks, no cards up its sleeve, this movie delivers the plot at face value, not caring about romanticism or extravaganza, but only what is, even if that hurts.
Finishing the movie, I wasn't quite sure what the message was, and I still don't. The only thing I can suppose is that this movie is whatever the viewer makes it out to be, and that's certainly not a bad thing.
