Movie: There Will Be Blood Sucks

there-will-be-blood.jpgDaniel Day-Lewis gave it his all in the bland role of Mr.Plainview in There Will Be Blood. There isn’t much of a story to talk about. This movie mainly circles around Oil drilling in early 20th century along with a half-cooked plot diversion about early evangelical christians . The movie seriously lacks any coherent characters and just like the protagonist’s name, it’s very plain, bland, and boring. The climax scene is a true stinker. PTA never made pretentious movies before this one. His movies were coherent and super-layered, but this one is truly an exception. The title of this movie should seriously be, “There Will Be Boredom”. If you want to see decent acting, you can watch it. But, I seriously recommend that you wait for the DVD. If you haven’t seen the Coen Brothers’ latest movie, “No County For Old Men“, please go see it ASAP. You can thank me later. That movie was extraordinary with a story, screenplay, and action that will blow your mind. I am not exaggerating one bit. I think it is the best movie of 2007, and it may very likely be the best movie of this decade.

It seems to me that most of the people who comment at the gazillion sites scattered on the net never bother to actually see the movies they are commenting about. I notice a huge herd mentality among the users of the endless web2.0 sites. Most of them seem to comment just for the fucking sake of doing it. Ignoranuses with their half-assed understanding of Google and its PageRank, always seem to be motivated to write some junk with their site link thrown in somewhere for sure. And, when you have professionals employed for $4/hr by hype creating machines(Marketing Companies) polluting the web, the best way to not be influenced is to pay no mind to the ever present generic/useless comments on most sites . I know I will, at least, from now onwards.
