No Country For Old Men (2007)
I just wrote a review for this but blogspot was stupid and erased it. I just want to say this is one of the best films of the year. Javier Bardem's performance as the bad guy is one of the most memorable ever put on film, an evil dude posed of a strong personal code that doesn't allow him to give anyone anything, the best he can do is let you call a coin toss on wither you live or die. The Coen's are in a full form they haven't been in in some time and the parallels to Fargo and Blood Simple abound. But this is its own distinct story beautifully rendered from the novel by Cormick McCarthy. A real find and strong contender for the Oscar for best picture.
