MOVIES, No Country for Old Men


As the oscar-winning film of 2008 by the Coen brothers, you know I would have to watch this movie. Initially, I thought it would be be those boring western movies; but always proved wrong. In the first few minutes, people die already. Overall the plot is about a guy who finds $2 million after a shoot out, and this guy is killing people to find him. I think the most exciting part is just the whole cat-mouse thing, whether or not the protagonist will leave or die, and whether or not the killer (Bavier, won the Oscar supporting actor) will spare the lives of randoms. I think the other characters seemed a bit unnecessary and prolonged a bit too long, but I wasn't thinking of that, because of the constant blood and shooting and etc.

I also can't wait to see Burn After Reading, directed by them with Pitt/Clonney later on this year, opened at Venice Film Festival.
