That very well may be, but you're missing out on a great thriller by skipping No Country for Old Men. The film has hands down one of the scariest "bad guys" you will ever see in a movie.

And, yes, whatever that tiny ass car was, I want one of those for me and my family.
The movie felt like a TV show. It had TV show production feel all over it. It had similar production values to a show like 24. And yes, everyone was groaning after the 2nd or 3rd restart of events. It was like a non clever way to make a plot more complex by slowly revealing layers of information...only without the challenging aspect of not presenting the information linearly. It was like Tarantino for dummies. It was pretty bad.

But alas, it was just a movie.
