No Country For Old Men

Before I even say anything about this movie, let me just say that I read the book No Country For Old Men by Cormac McCarthy before I even decided to watch the flick. Therefore, I had to watch it with a somewhat unopened mind. However,

I dug the fucking flick.

It was a Coen Brothers' flick. What's not to like? Javier Bardem was fantastic, Tommy Lee Jones was Tommy Lee Jones, and Josh Brolin was surprisingly great.

It wasn't the same exact thing as the book was, that's fine, but there wasn't a bad thing about the movie.

Therefore, it's my number two of the JD's Top Five Flicks of the Year.

The List:

1. Gone Baby Gone
2. No Country For Old Men
3. The Kingdom
4. To Be Determined
5. To Be Determined
