No country for old men

I have always enjoyed the Coen Brothers movies (Fargo, Millers Crossing, Big Leboswki, Blood Simple etc). They take their favorite topic of a common man saddled with tonnes of money procured illegally and what happens to his life after that. This movie is probably their best, it’s gripping; chilling and you almost want some scenes to go on longer. My prediction is that it would sweep the Oscars this week and Javier Bardem (the most menacing on screen villain since Hannibal) would get the best supporting actor.
