No Country For Old Men

It's been a "Hot Ass Minute" since I've seen a movie of this caliber. In fact the last movie I saw of this caliber was Children Of Men. As good as that may sound, Children Of Men ended up loosing to The Departed which I thought was a far less superior movie. For that reason, I really hope that it does not follow the path that Children Of Men traveled.

No Country For Old Men is a movie that leaves the audience thinking throughout the movie and into the next day. It will have you at the edge of your seat and just as you are about to fall out of it, a perfect line or exchange puts your at ease. The Coen Brothers have outdone themselves with this movie. One might say it even resembles Fargo which was also a Coen Brothers superb, yet don't compare it for it itself is its own movie and in a class of it's own.

Theres a reason its #14 on IMDB's top 250. And theres a reason I give it a 9.6/10.

Moo Shu

It was about 5 years ago when my good friend Jack introduced me to Moo Shu. It was love at first taste but for some reason the pairings of tongue and Moo Shu have been few and far between. This changed today as Joel and I got Moo Shu not once, not twice, but three times from the same place. Okay, so maybe I lied, we only went twice but we were really considering going a third time and thats no joke.

Damn you Moo Shu and your delicious pancake wrapped medley!
