Default Coen Brothers

Anyone think "No Country For Old Men" is their best yet? I do believe it is.

Default Coen Brothers Overrated?

I have heard this opinion before but I disagree. "No Country For Old Men" was a fantastic movie, arguably their finest to date.

The movie is slated for release on November 21, 2007. Starring Tommy Lee Jones.. I do think that it is the best movie for Cohen Brothers.. I like the cinematography of the film based on the trailer..

I've never thought that they were overrated. In fact, it may be just the opposite.

With movies like Raising Arizona, Millers Crossing and Fargo to the credit, they have demonstrated the ability to do a wide range of quirky, yet enjoyable, films.

I am really excited to see this movie. The Coen brothers are probably my favorite film-makers as far as consistency goes and this film looks like it will be right up there with the others. I have heard a lot of good things about it.

From what I've read about it, I'll be surprised if this one doesn't get some Oscar consideration.

It will win an Oscar I believe, yes. Coen's will likely win best director as well.
