    Just watched "True Grit" and re-watched "No Country For Old Men" properly. True Grit was great,

    No Country For Old Men was phenomenal. One of the best movies made in the last 10 years, without a doubt.

    What was phenomenal about it? The fact that the lead character was killed off camera? That movie was a turd.

    Everything. The killer was a perfect character, and lots of questions were left unanswered.

    I loved both those movies. The bad guy in "No Country For Old Men" was awesome

    While I like 'No Country for Old Men', I consider it a highly overrated film.
