There Will Be Blood was seen as a strong competitor at Academy Awards with No Country For Old Men, which was the reason to see these movies. After i've been disappointed with both it once again confirmed the irrelevance of Oscars and IMDb rating.

Daniel Day-Lewis offers a tremendous performance, yet this is a default for any movie he's been in. So, no surprise there. Paul Dano was rather weak and the rest of the crew bearable.

Yet, the main issue was the ambition of Paul Thomas Anderson to create a monumental piece of art. 158 minutes of length only confirm my assumption.

Sorry, but i have really nothing to add about There Will Be Blood.
