I seriously think that TWBB is one of the most overrated movies ever. Great acting? Sure. Great cinematography? Sure. Great direction? Yup.
Absolutely stupid and completely unbelievable story? That's where it completely loses me.
In the old west Daniel Plainview would have been shot in the back at night pretty early on for being such a total prick.
