Very good psychological film

Rating: 8/10 (26 April 2019)

I recommend this film to any fan of period drama or character-driven movies. There will be blood is a very well done dissection of its main character, played by Day-Lewis. As such, it is very well done. The character slowly evolve during the courses of the movie... we see him despicable, but also sometimes redeemable, even lovable. More importantly, he feels real... which is remarkable given the type of character he finaly reveals himself to be.
The directing and cinematography are also very good and they do not distract from the writing.
My main critiques would be that the movie sometimes feels too long and the ending feels rushed. I watched it in two parts, which I believe made me appreciate it more.
