Okay. So I'm gonna start this blog by talking about a movie that has been supremely loved and hated. This movie has polarized almost as many people as the Presidential Election. I have probably seen 1,000 movies. That said, I am used to the usual construct of a movie. Antagonist. Protagonist. Climax. Heck....what about a good ol' nude scene? No Country For Old Men is as great as it is apalling. Javier Bardem is a bad guy unlike anything I've ever seen before. Dark stare, sharp features framing a menacing gaze, Lego hair. Yup, he has it all. He is a sloth-like Terminator.
For all the buzz, this movie was just a waste of 122 minutes, with a few funny lines and some crazy facial close-ups (the orgasmic look on Bardem's face when he chokes the Deputy). I thought about taking on his coin-flipping decision making. I wish that I had flipped to see either this or Fred Claus on November 9th, 2007 - and Fred Claus came up heads.
Would it be too much to see Josh Brolin killed off? Or for Tommy Lee Jones to take less peyote before reveling in his ridiculous dream? I'll leave this little tidbit for you to look for.
"Look at that fucking bone!" You'll know it when you see it. Dunner out.......
