Yeah I saw the preview, it looks great.....another movie from the Coen brothers.

The Big Lebowski and Fargo are a couple of my favorite movies of all time.

I also plan on checking this one out over the holiday weekend.

I'm very disappointed in this movie. It's pretty bland all the way through. I kept expecting it to pick up but it never did. It may have been a little better if they had of condensed it but even that wouldn't help much. The ending was the lamest. Tommy Lee Jones had a big part but it was completely unnecessary and could have easily been left out.

There could be a sequel but I hope there isn't!

While the television trailer I saw for No Country For Old Men made it look pretty cool, the trailer I saw for it in a theater back in September made it look ridiculously boring.

It now seems as if the initial feeling I had is the right one.

I finally got over to see it before it leaves the theaters..

Fucking great flick

I was on the edge of my seat.

I am so turned off of anything that Jack Nicholson does now-a-days after watching the boring ass abortion that was "About Schmidt". It was completely unwatchable and I am afraid to waste any more of my life by watching something that might be as horrible as that. Morgan Freeman usually only does brilliant movies, though. I am torn. My wife has no interest in this movie, though, so I'll probably never get around to watching it.

Hey Vish this isn't that Nicholson and Freeman "Kick the bucket" comedy flick.

This one has a psycho (one of the best bad guys ever) on a killing spree while trying to get his drug deal gone wrong money back.


"Heads Or Tails"

"The Bucket List" was the movie you're thinking... I'm not very interested in seeing that, BUT Jack Nicholson is one of my favorite actors of all time. I love everything I have seen him in, but I haven't seen About Schmidt, so I dunno if I'd like it or not. Did you see "The Departed" - he's getting older and perfect for those "dirty old man" type roles.

On the topic of this thread, I do actually want to see No Country for Old Men, it looks interesting to me. I can sit through slow movies as long as the acting and plot and character development and cinematography are good. I watch movies more for what they are as a whole rather than if the story line is a bit slow.

I saw The Departed... in fact, I was the one that started the thread for that movie in this forum. DiCaprio and Matt Damon will always drive me to see a movie. Love those guys.

I have no problem with slow movies if they're made nteresting. NCFOM just seemed like it was missing something.

I loved the movie until the ending. Someone needs to explain the ending because it made no sense to me at all.

The ending definitely makes no sense. Other than that the movie is good, but nothing special.
