No Country for Old Men was ok. I didn't love it. Thought 3:10 to Yuma was a hell of a lot more entertaining even if it was a technically worse movie.
I thought There Will Be Blood and Michael Clayton were both better picks for Best Picture.

And I wouldn't compare being called a cheap Jew the same as being called a drunk Canadian ... cause I'm usually drunk, and don't take offense to that at all. I lived in Jamaica, Queens the past 4 years and if you were to say to any black person I bet you like fried chicken they'd respond hell yea and say they like to wash it down with some kool aid too fruit punch flavor of course. To judge a person based on a stereotype is unfair but stereotypes are stereotypes for a reason because they have some factual value. |

Seemed to fly by. yeah the ending wasnt that great Someone called me at the end so I missed part of it because I couldnt find remote. I don't think anything I missed would have made me satisfied with the ending. |

Why would he not ditch the homing device? All that bullshit could have been largely avoided and the ending blew balls. The acting was very very good and the movie strung me along for 2 hours for nothing. |

I mean this guy wasn't a genius. He did the best he could, but he made mistakes. The movie was made and written well and well acted. I loved that you never got a feel for what was gonna happen.Most plots are so predictable. |

The shit was ridiculous and I left with a sour taste in my mouth. I've only seen one other Cohen brothers movie which was the headsucker proxy which wasn't bad but nothing spectacular. |

Haha, you're equating an insinuation about the food of a culture with the validity and social acceptibility of calling Jews rude and cheap. You are an ignorant person, period. |
