    Simply brilliant

    This slow paced movie is instantly engaging. The texan/ mexican locations are beautifully captured and the direction allows the actors to breathe. The result is a visually beautiful, engaging drama that is often witty and keeps you fully intrigued throughout its duration. A masterclass in all things film.

You can divide the world into those who swat a fly, and those who enjoy picking the legs and wings off one by one. Tommy Lee Jones seems to be in the second group. Levon Helm's cameo as the blind man is brilliant, best thing in the film.

    • 06 May 2008

It seems like only yesterday, but the very first LOVEFiLM weekly newsletter went out at the beginning of May 2004, and four years later we're celebrating our 200th edition. Who woulda thunk it? Online DVD rentals hadn't made much impact at the time - the business was still in its infancy. It wasn't until the... Read more
