Summary: A man stumbles upon a case of money from a drug deal gone awry, then finds himself pursued relentlessly by the former owner of the cash. Meanwhile, an aging sheriff ponders the absurdity of life in these violent times, even as he races to save the man.
Things I Liked: The direction, notably the photography and the composition of the shots. The performances of Javier Bardem and Kelly Macdonald. Except for some muddled dialogue, I felt that the sound design was good.
Things I Didn't Like: The casting of Tommy Lee Jones, Josh Brolin and Woody Harrelson in the roles of three of the film's leads. I also felt that the character played by Beth Grant bordered too closely on caricature.
