No Country for Old Men
I haven't seen all of Coen Brothers' movies, didn't like some of them, and loved the rest. This movie just blew me away. I was lucky to have seen it without any pre-conceived bias, had no clue what it was about. Flipping through the video-on-demand menu, I just clicked on it. The title wasn't alluring, I will give you that.
The scenery grabs your attention with the wide open vistas of the American southwest. And then the music, or rather the lack of it (I subsequently read that there was only about sixteen minutes worth in the film). Made in the best of film noir tradition, it does not disappoint. Some things are incredible, but it never insults your intelligence.
You will either hate it or love it, but you won't be indifferent. And I will end my review right there.
Enjoy!
