There Will Be Blood
The Movie Man - wrote on 05/13/09
There Will Be Blood is a Frightening look at what one man will do, to get what he wants and the destruction he causes to get it. The film opens with a quiet twelve minutes, then after that, the film barely misses a step. It's well made, with good direction and a good screenplay that is sure to be quoted for years to come. Daniel Day Lewis is amazing as the ruthless oil tycoon, Paul Dano is good as the towns reverend and young Dillion Freasier is also quite good as Lewis' son. The film also has a very good score. There are two scenes in the film that are a stand out, I'm sure you know what they are. Slow at times, Though, It's still really well put together.
