No Country for Old Men
The Movie Man - wrote on 05/13/09
No Country for Old Men is an Intense and Brutal film that packs a wallop. The Coen Brothers have done it again, making a film that is unique to the core. It's very well made and performed by the entire cast. Wonderful direction and screenplay by the Coens. Wonderful scenery and scary situations. The cast is perfect with Josh Brolin getting a good performance in the lead, Kelly Macdonald as his wife, Woody Harrelson as a private investigator, Tommy Lee Jones as the sheriff (by personal favorite performance), and Javier Bardem as the bounty hunter of sorts, who is outstanding and there's no doubt in my mind that his character is one of the greatest villians in movie history. Although many people will disagree, I liked the ending, I thought it was the best for the film to end, letting the audience decide how they think the film ended. No Country for Old Men is a really great movie that should not and probably will not be missed by anyone.
