No Country for Old Men

This film is interesting and different but doesn't really have a new story line. We have drug money found by a sort of good guy, drug runners looking for the money, and a bad cop with absolutely no problem killing someone just because also looking for the money. What sets this apart from other movies that had the same basic storyline would have to be the characters. I don't know how to describe it other then the characters in this somehow feel less extreme then characters in many movies. If you have a weak stomach this is not the film for you. Although there isn't extra blood and guts you do see things like bodies days after a gun fight, and an injured person giving them selves stitches. I give this film a B. I would give it a higher grade but the storyline has been used many times it would have been nice to see something a little fresher with these kinds of characters.
