Movie Review - No Country for Old Men

It goes without saying that this movie has been nominated for and won MANY awards. That said, this is one of those movies that keeps you on the edge of your seat and thinking about it for long after.

I still really haven't figured out what the "moral" of this movie is or what the many symbolisms are, but it all starts out with our hapless hero hunting in the desert of Texas. Soon afterwards a symbolic dark cloud glides across the sky casting a shadow upon the land in front of him.

Our Hapless Hero

One of the best things about this movie of course is the "villain". Is he psychotic? Maybe. That will be left for the viewer to decide, but J thinks that he is symbolic of death, so his actions are justified.


Our Evil Villain

At the end of the movie, I wasn't sure what to think. There were a bunch of old people babbling about morals and stuff that I just couldn't understand. Maybe that is why it is called "No Country for Old Men".



UPDATE: Since everybody is too afraid or "busy" post a reply, here is a trailer of the movie. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED, WATCH THIS MOVIE!
