Advantages: Gripping Storyline, Well Acted, Well Written, Well Directed Disadvantages: None
mentioned above Javier Bardem won an Academy Award for best supporting actor, this was highly deserved as I said earlier, as he played his part brilliantly, however it did not end here, NoCountry For OldMen won 3 more Academy Awards, they were; best director and best adapted screenplay for Joel and Ethan Coen and it also won the coveted bestpicture award, so if my review does not get you to watch this great film, then maybe that will!
DVD Bonus Features
Also included on the DVD are the usual extras you get, including a program entitled 'the making of nocountry for oldmen' this is very good and if you enjoy the film it is well worth watching.

Advantages: Thriller, good story, great characters Disadvantages: A bit of a blood bath!
NoCountry for OldMen
There are no clean getaways!!
I have been wanting to see this movie ever since the Oscars at the beginning of this year. This film won four Academy Awards including bestpicture so I was very interested to see what it was like.
It is directed by the Coen brothers, Joel and Ethan who are themselves 4 time academy award winners so I knew that it would be different and hopefully good. The film came out in 2007 and was actually adapted from the novel of the same name by Cormac McCarthy.
The genre of this film is crime thriller. I would also say it is quite a physiological thriller as the drama was very nail biting, edge of your seat stuff. I have to say that if you are at all squeamish or jumpy do not watch this film as it was rather violent and in some places quite shockingly violent. After some ...
Advantages: It's a Coen Brothers film Disadvantages: It's not as good as other Coen Brothers films

EC: Sigh. Who else?
JC: Josh Brolin, he might get pretty big soon but for now he's cheap as chips.
EC: Jackie Brown?
JC: No, Bargain Hunt.
EC: -
JC: Never mind. So, cowboys mean no dialogue, that cinematographer guy can make it all look good, Tommy Lee Jones holds it all together and the rest of the parts can be filled by gimps hanging around the studio.
EC: You've done Pulp Fiction.
JC: I just like saying 'gimps'. Why does the sheriff have to be old?
EC: That's kind of the hook. I'm going to call it 'NoCountry for OldMen' and the sheriff will mooch through the film bemoaning the fact that he can't relate to the modern criminal mind and the excessive yet pointless violence he continues to encounter.
JC: That sounds pretty lame.
EC: Don't worry, that ...

DVD Description
A collection of three films that won the Academy Award for Best Motion Picture. In the Coen Brothers' masterful NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN, an innocent everyman with a devoted wife and simple existence stumbles across the scene of a botched drug deal. Amidst the carnage, he discovers two million dollars in unmarked bills, which he promptly pockets. What he doesn't count on, however, is the ruthless assassin who's hot on his trail and who will stop at nothing until his gets his man. Based on a true story, A BEAUTIFUL MIND depicts the life of brilliant mathematician John Forbes Nash Jr. Nash suffered for many years from paranoid schizophrenia yet, remarkably, managed to fight his mental illness and go on to win the Nobel Prize. Skilfully blending elements of drama, suburban satire, and black comedy, AMERICAN BEAUTY tells the story of a suburban father who becomes disillusioned with his stale, repetitive existence and loveless marriage to an uptight real estate agent. In an act of defiance, he quits his job and starts regressing into young adulthood, where he befriends the neighbour's pot-dealing son, gets high, lifts weights, and has sexual fantasises about his 16-year-old daughter's best friend. Meanwhile, the lives of those around him unravel in profound and startling ways.
