Movie Review – No Country For Old Men – 2 Stars
Here’s another example of a film that was hyped so much that I was quite let down by the actual thing. I’ve loved most of the Coen brothers’ stuff, so was more than a little disappointed by this. The story was acceptable, but Brolin seems to just be passing the time in his role. And while Bardem seems to be sufficiently un-emotive for the sociopath hitman, he just never scared me enough. I don’t know if it’s because the Coen brothers are adapting someone else’s work; but I just didn’t “feel” this film the same way as with their others.
