FILM : No Country For Old Men

[cHodAX]

I shall save you some time, don't bother watching it.

The first hour is pretty reasonable but then it just turns into bizzar-o-mode with the story going off on tangents that make utterly no sense at all. They obviously decided that for the film to get an oscar nomination it had to have an 'artsy' edge to it and so they totally abandoned any notion of a story half way through in favour of a couple of shock moments and the worst ending in the history of Hollywood.

Honestly, for an hour I quite enjoyed it but those last 40 minutes or so are a complete mind-fuck. If it wins an oscar and it may well do then all hope for the film industry is lost.

Don't ever abuse a Coen brothers film!!!
They are not arty just stupidly surreal in nature, havn't seen it yet, but I can't wait, heard its like Fargo without the black humour

No, no. Fargo was class. This is different though, it starts out well and then sadly goes way beyond surreal. As for the ending, utter tripe.
