There Will Be Blood

Watched There Will Be Blood and this is one of those movies that gets heavier the more you think about it after finishing. The biggest reason it works so well is honestly Daniel Day-Lewis. His performance completely carries the movie and makes Daniel Plainview feel intimidating without even trying too hard. Every scene with him feels tense. I also liked that the movie never felt slow to me even though it takes its time. It just keeps building this uncomfortable atmosphere until the ending leaves you feeling completely empty. This feels less like a normal movie and more like watching a person slowly destroy himself from greed and obsession. Definitely a movie I want to rewatch again someday because it feels like there’s still more to understand in it.
