There Will Be Blood

there will be blood is a movie starring daniel day lewis as an oil prospector in the early 1900s trying to get rich ... the movie got outstanding reviews ... it was hailed as an instant classic ... but i beg to differ ... i thought it was extremely boring ... and long ... i don't get what all the fuss is about ... i mean yeah it's deep and you can analyze the themes and motifs for hours ... but still ... i didn't enjoy it ... neither did my friend who watched it with me ... i give it 5/10 ... i don't recommend it but the critics do ... i'll leave it to the readers to decide who to listen to ...

OMG i thought it was the most boring movie EVER! I sat there with my sister waiting for the movie to begin, ie y2ale3 and for the "blood" to appear! But more an hour into it still had not 2alla3 :S We finally gave up and turned it off!! I did not catch the deep themes you're talking about!! for me it was plain boring..

thank you!!!

i watched the whole thing .. its like 2 and a half hrs .. and when i say deep themes im talking about how the movie is supposed to be a critique of the american dream and capitalism and how his last name is plainview thats not a coincidence and the themes of greed and godlessness and bla bla u know the falsafeh stuff .. il khulasa u agree with me ino its boring :D
