What a clever and satisfying film. If you like Cormac McCarthy - this original story in a setting similar to No Country For Old Men - is a treat. It's like finding a genuine Rolex in a dumpster of crappy watches.
Tommy Lee Jones captures the rawhide quirkiness of saddle-men - vaqueros - cowboys. That face of his is art (OK not-so-pretty) in motion.
It's a redemption story without moralizing or preaching.
Give it a serious look. It's a beautifully shot, well told and rewarding film.
