Just Good

Rating: Null/10 (22 March 2009)

There Will Be Blood, I believe as overrated. Sorry. Let me tell you, it's a good movie with a great performance by Daniel Day-Lewis, but from the start until the end, it just stuck on that one gear. I'm not calling this movie "horrible" or "boring", it's a good movie that'll only have that one viewing, when I don't intend on re-watching. People claim this has "The movie of the decade", now I strongly disagree with that quote. You can't go past movies like "Memento" or "City Of God", calling this the best in ten years of cinema is utterly wrong. But we've all got an opinion, many seem to like the theme and pace of this movie. To be honest, I'm not the biggest fan. There was one exceptional performance, but the rest was just good. Obviously many will disagree with this out-come as its so very popular, but I've got mixed reactions. Still one to look out for, that claimed to be "rigged" in the 2007 Academy Awards.
