Very surprised and amazed

Rating: 8/10 (6 February 2017)

I'm embarrassed to say I only just watched this film even though it came out in 2007. I must say I wasn't really that interested in watching it but now I wish I hadn't waited so long. It's my first film I've seen with Daniel Day Lewis and wow what an amazing actor! The movie starts a bit slow but once they get to Little Boston it really picks up. Paul Dano in my opinion is underrated. I've seen a few of his films now and he always impresses me and this film was no exception. I loved the music as well, in the intense scenes it really added to the drama of the film. Also what I loved about Daniel Day Lewis' character was the suspense of him, you never know what he will do next.Apparently he won Best Actor at the 2008 Oscars for his role and he deserved it 100%. I gave it 8/10 and I recommended it but it is over 2 hours.
