Nothing Special!

Rating: 3/10 (27 January 2008)

It's a blood bath. Nothing special! Very disappointing... I am trying to understand why it got such good reviews. I cannot think of anything and for sure it's a film I will not remember and I will not want to see again. I don't think it deserves to be compared to O Brother where are thou?... Nothing to do with that. Too much violence and blood running. After watching it I felt sick and anxious... Some very good performances though... Tommy Lee Jones and Josh Brolin to mention two actors. It does not have a happy ending and this is something brave for Hollywood. However, this is not a good reason to consider it a very good movie? Why is it candidate to the Oscars?
