Summary: amazing film
Comment: this is a great movie. the power of greed is exposed for the destroying machine that it is. upton sinclair would be proud. daniel day-lewis lies and cheats and drinks and kills everything that he touches because he is empty inside and no amount of money can fill the void where his soul should be. this is a magnificently powerful film that compromises nothing and is an essential portrayal of the history of America. you won't be disappointed. the power of unbridled greed and its inherent evil has never been portrayed better.

Summary: DON'T BOTHER.....
Comment: OK, OK, OK ....Best Actor of the Year....up for Best Picture of the Year...I THOUGHT IT WAS MORE THAN A WASTE OF TIME - IT WAS A REAL DOWNER! Glad I checked this out from the library. Only gave it two stars because of the photography. I recommend you use your time more productively; hopefully on a film that portrays our species in a better light.

Summary: There Will Be Greed
Comment: Director Paul Thomas Anderson ("Magnolia") achieves something very rare in films, he manages to create a really extraordinary film whose main character Daniel Plainview played by Daniel Day-Lewis ("My Left Foot") is for the most part reprehensible. With the exception of rare moments of affection for his deaf son, whose deafness is caused by an accident at his father's oil wells, Plainview cares for no one on earth, hates most people, is highly competitive and filled with unstoppable greed and ambition.
The film is based on a novel by Upton Sinclair OIL and is set in the early decades of the 20th century when a lot of Americans acted like Plainview-- to a lesser degree we hope-- in their quest for wealth at whatever expense.
The critics could not get enough of this film. Daniel Day-Lewis earned an Oscar for best actor for his portrayal of Plainview. While he is supported by good performances by other actors, notably that of Paul Dano ("Little Miss Sunshine") as the hell-fire minister of the Church of the Third Revelation, Eli Sunday, the film ultimately belongs to Day-Lewis.
In addition to his statement about greed, Anderson also shoots a nice arrow into fundamentalist, crazy religion. The soundtrack works very well, particularly the use of the beautiful Brahms Violin Concerto.
It will be interesting to see how this film holds up in the years ahead, but for now it is still white-hot.

Summary: There will be blood by Brandon
Comment: I thought Daniel Day Lewis was outstanding and evil in this movie, but I thought he was the only thing good in the movie. It has a good story about an oil man, but it is very long and it gets boring.
