I am a regular reader of comments on IMDb and trust their ratings more than any given by critics. But seeing this farce of a movie being listed int he top 250 has upset me enough to start posting my reviews, in the hope that I will save someone the agony.

Acting: (Daniel Day Lewis)DDL give a good performance, nothing less than expected. Though I feel that he was better in "Gangs of New York" . The other actors are simply there just to fill the screen space or they are miscast (Paul Dano as the preacher). Its only DDL's performance which lends any sort of credibility to the movie.

Music Score: I shudder when I think of what I had to go through for 2.5 hours. You could relate the sound to the constant whining in your head when the dentist is performing a root-canal.

It is a shame that this movie is being called a classic. Please keep a Tylenol handy if you still plan on watching this one.
