Honestly, that's always a possibility, isn't it? I've often wondered whether it was me or the movie - whenever I've watched a movie that I expected to like but just didn't really feel into.
I just got bored with There Will Be Blood. That's really all I can remember about it. Did you like Inherent Vice? |

I thought that 3 Billboards was really overhyped as well, but the more that I meditated on it and what it was trying to accomplish, the more I grew to love it.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I also didn't like it at all. DDL trying to ape John Huston's drawl the whole movie was the least of the issues I had with it.

And DDL handles it incredibly naturally, but he's no John Wayne. Now that's an actor.

TWBB is a fascinating display of power struggle accented by the effects of modern capitalism on the mind and family. The soundtrack, cinematography, and performances are just the icing on the cake. Try again. Quote:

inherent vice is by far his least enjoyable film but it's ok cause all of his others are ****in' bangers
TWBB is like an A+++ the master tho goddamn that's almost as good maybe there and boogie nights oh baby magnolia? just shut the **** up man it's brilliant i guess punch drunk love left a little tiny bit to be desired but it's still a really good movie

Easily his best imo.
TWBB is up there but I prefer the plot and setting of BN.
