    Bad guy wins

    3. History of Violence. ...

    Those are my 3 worst movies that I didn't get.
    Haven't seen H of V.

    Of the other two, I preferred There Will Be Blood; it's about is power-hungry, vindictive, control freak with barely hidden violent streak. Love's his son? Not more than his compulsion to dominate.

    But whereas 'Daniel Planview' is a sociopath, 'Anton Chigurh' in No Country for Old Men is simply a psychopathic killer, nothing complicated about that.

    I got the crazy killer part. But the whole drug gang/sherriff thing. And the "retirement" at the end. It was very disjointed, and didn't work out for me. I don't mind a movie with a message, but this was just stupid.
