I just watched 'There Will Be Blood".

[Contrefaire]

You listed Spiderman 3 over Ratatouille and Eastern Promises and Bourne Ultimatum.

I mean, I was just going based off what came to mind first, in no particular order regardless of how I felt about it. But I don't think Ratatouille was geared toward the same audience so...

what did you see in this that was so different from the movie you saw

I expected a lot more action. The trailers that ran on TV for it were even more deceptive. It was very talky and at the end of the day, fairly pointless. I don't mind that in a film but I like to be prepared for it .

I never saw the trailer until now. I watched the movie and it was what it was. I agree even from the first 30 mins, I was expecting more..... blood. But it was still good


What you described tho is exactly how I felt about no country for old men. Killer assassin chases man with stolen drug money. Cops chase them both. Awesome trailer

But it was also wordy and artsy with too few action scenes for me. Killed the main guy off screen. Bad ass villain and we maybe see 2-3 kills from him. All that “choose your own ending” ending bullshyt with the wife and the cop.

I really got to be in the mood to sit through it

 

[The Devil's Advocate]

it's between it, No Country for Old Men, The Dark Knight, & Children of Men (my pick) for me

Children of men is one the most amazing films of all time. I try to get everyone who comes by to watch it. Every time, they are stuck to the tv. And me too, like I never seen it.

Blood Diamond came out in '06.... the same year as The Departed that won the Oscar.

idk man fukk this movie. it was so pretentious .

I loved No Country but I feel you on everything you said. It's a dope book though, highly recommend it.

DDL would have been trash in pulp fiction

DDL never been trash in anything....he would have killed that shyt too.

Bout to watch it for the first time now, while getting some work done . Got this confused with no country for old men. Trying not to read these comments so I won’t spoil it myself like I usually do but I’ll be back to compare it to posts on this thread - is it similar in genres like the Road to Perdition? Gangs of New York?

 

[I AM WARHOL]

Not a Daniel Day Lewis fan tbh. Only got halfway through this flick. Ill give it another go tomorrow i guess

This movie is weird to me. I mean, it wasn't bad or anything but idk what the point of it was

 

[AkaDemiK]

DDL is the goat

 

[mag357]

I be telling ppl DDL is my fav actor, by far... they get mad cause i dnt say denzel or some shyt..
This nikka makes a long ass movie, that most ppl would probly fall asleep on... Good as hell and unforgettable.

People say in here complaining about a slow movie

You need to watch The American with George Clooney.

That sh!t was the biggest scam in terms of trailer to actual movie

 

[villain]

That movie taught me a lot about being conniving.

There was this scene where Dano was trying force DDL to do something for him and DDL was like "Sure, anything else I can do for you?" and when then time came, DDL didn't do that shyt at all and instead completely flipped the script on Dano

That shyt let me know that you can appear to take an L in one instance but be plotting against someone the whole time
