Review of There Will Be Blood (2007) by Rory P — 16 Apr 2014
Daniel Day-Lewis is a great actor and undoubtedly outshines everyone in this film. The cinematography is impeccable and some of the best I've ever seen, and the soundtrack is beautiful, albeit a little overused in the film.
The first twenty minutes is my favorite section of the film, which shows ambitious protagonist Daniel Plainview and friends prospecting for oil with zero dialogue, so that the atmosphere and music sink in the viewer instead.
There Will Be Blood is without doubt directed beautifully, even if it has a slight over abundance of slow moments.
