The Best of Cin-o-Matic: No Country for Old Men


No Country for Old Men: 9.1

Well, there's no getting around it: No Country for Old Men is the most critically appraised film of the year, getting a 9.0 on cin-o-matic - higher than last year's Pan's Labyrinth; but less than Army of Shadows (9.5) and Killer of Sheep (9.8!). The former, never before released in the U.S, was my top pick for the best film of last year, and the latter, never thearatically released since 1977, is, as of now, my top pick for the best film of the year as well. Nevertheless, I approach No Country with great excitement - a review will be posted soon, as well as my ultimate thoughts on Ridley Scott's overrated American Gangster
