Review of There Will Be Blood (2007) by Abra K — 08 Mar 2018

There Will be Blood is a masterpiece of craft. Director Paul Thomas Anderson's (PTA) dark tale of oil, greed and capitalism is vividly captured on screen. This sprawling epic excels the raw madness in the early days of business tycoons.

Actor Daniel Day-Lewis has never been better, in his performance of a lifetime as a turn-of-the-century prospector named Daniel Plainview. Blood and oil are running rapidly through Plainview's veins as he continues to grow his business.

There Will Be Blood is a poetic experience for cinema. It's magnificent and it's wholly original. This will be a film that will be study for generations to come.
