“The world is a great place, and it’s worth fighting for.” Detective Somerset is such an interesting character to me, if you take into consideration that the story both begins and ends with him, you realize not only that he’s the conductive thread holding the narrative together, but also that it is through his view of life that we experience the events of the film. That’s why, at its core, much like no country for old men, this feels like a cynical exploration of the rapid and banal decay of Western civilization. And if goodness is a choice, then nowadays chaos and irrationality seem to have become our daily nature.
