Who would've thought that oil discovery would make for such an exciting movie?!? It's like the feeling you get when you realize that Discovery's Deadliest Catch is so addictively exciting.

Set in the late 1800s, There Will Be Blood is a rivetting rags-to-riches story about an oilman's life. It might seem to start a bit slow but when the movie gets its momentum, it just keeps going and going and going to the point that it sort of leaves you hanging at the end and thinking "That's it?!?"

But it is a very good movie with an interesting plot, engaging characters, and extremely talented actors. Daniel Day Lewis did deserve an Oscar for his acting here. After seeing this movie, I even thought this one deserved the Best Picture award more than No Country for Old Men.
