No country for Old Men..Overrated? email this discussion to a friend?

LillyRose (23)7 months ago

Ok. I am beginning to notice that I don't enjoy a lot of films that are hailed by critics (sideways anyone?)or loved by the masses. Except one. Which was there will be Blood. That was awesome and it broke the mold

Now I just saw no country for old men and it just left me with a "that's it?" feeling after it was over. I loved Javier Bardem and I think he deserved his oscar. There were too many plotholes and tommy lee jones to me plays the same character in every film. I just could not enjoy it.

lol, exactly my thoughts. i watched this movie and i was like "what happened?" it was completely awful and all that southern accent!!! i didnt even get half of the dialogues=P all i understood was that there was a drug deal gone bad and a guy picked up the money and somehow the mad man went after that guy for the money and end up killing him and his family and in the end he had a car accident and tommy lee jones was talking to that old lady and... ummm the end...=S and i am totally blank why it got the oscar.

and same goes for last year's best movie 'the departed'. it was extremely boring as well. i dunno whats up with such movies getting the best movie oscars.

Oh yeah! I completely forgot about the departed. It was more like a comedy to me then a thriller with the actors trying so hard with their accent. To me it was just an average film. Why everyone went gaga over it is beyond me.
