Soulless, and for no apparent reason. Obviously a masterpiece, but in no way deserving of the seemingly endless effusive exaltation it has received. Beautiful cinematography, fantastic performances from Josh Brolin, Javier Bardem, and Tommy Lee Jones, typically brilliant direction from the Coen Brothers, so fun to watch, and yet the audience is left without a chance to empathize. Nevertheless, probably the second-best movie of 2007. If you want a real "unsettling" movie, go see There Will Be Blood.
