Additional Footage; Soundtrack English; Soundtrack French; Soundtrack Spanish; English Subtitles; DVD Included Director Paul Thomas Anderson's THERE WILL BE BLOOD is a masterly, unflinching examination of a consummately evil man. Daniel Plainview (via a transcendent performance by the great Daniel Day-Lewis) is, as he likes to remind those around him, an oil man: he finds it, he drills for it, and he makes money from it. Following a tip from a visitor named Paul Sunday, whose family sits atop a veritable ocean of oil, Plainview travels to the town of New Boston, California, with his young son. Sunday's preacher brother Eli (both roles are played by the excellent Paul Dano) grudgingly accepts Plainview's ambitions under the condition that he help fund the town church. As Plainview's plans come to fruition, a series of events begin to fracture the insular world he has constructed for himself, pitting Plainview against Sunday and forcing him to become even more vindictive and ruthless.
Anderson proved with BOOGIE NIGHTS and MAGNOLIA that he was adept at handling expansive storylines and layered plots; however, he stakes out a claim here as a new master of the cinematic epic. The film is visually stunning, and alternates between lush widescreen shots of the desert and meticulously composed, darkly lit close-up of his actors, presenting complex images of the American landscape and the souls that dot it. As a narrative, THERE WILL BE BLOOD is told with a sense of economy, yet never at the expense of the film's inherently grand scope. It's difficult to determine precisely what Anderson wants his viewers to take from the experience: the film is, in the end, appropriately complex and ambiguous. THERE WILL BE BLOOD forces us to confront Plainville, who seems to be a larger-than-life personification of evil; that we don't entirely understand him at the film's conclusion is not a shortcoming, but rather a tribute to the depths of this most vile creature and this most brilliant film. Theatrical Release: December 26, 2007 There Will Be Blood Reviews: "It flows smoothly, linearly, building momentum and unbearable tension....[Mr. Day-Lewis] seems to have invaded Plainview's every atom....It's a thrilling performance..."-- Manohla Dargis, New York Times "[The film] creates considerable heat and light and does some serious aesthetic damage....Day-Lewis and Anderson share a ferocity of approach to their work..."-- Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times "A complete universe is created before a word is spoken in THERE WILL BE BLOOD, a towering new American epic and instant modern classic..." -- Grade: A-- Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly Ranked #7 in Rolling Stone's "10 Best Movies Of 2007" -- "[Anderson's] filmmaking is raw, risky and built to leave bruises. This is his bloody and brilliant CITIZEN KANE."-- Peter Travers, Rolling Stone "In P.T. Anderson's latest and most impressive vision of all-American excess, business and religion go the distance in a battle to the death..."-- Harlan Jacobson, Film Comment 4 stars out of 4 -- "THERE WILL BE BLOOD hits with hurricane force....In terms of excitement, imagination and rule-busting experimentation, it's a gusher."-- Peter Travers, Rolling Stone "[Dano's] combination of cherubic earnestness and steely composure recalls the young Ed Norton; his fire-and-brimstone sermons are the stuff of fever dreams, rivetingly played."-- Hannah McGill, Sight and Sound 5 stars out of 5 -- "The breadth of vision is impressive, but the lean, stark filmmaking more so....This is also Anderson's most classical movie..."-- Tom Charity, Uncut 5 stars out of 5 -- "The last scene is like a gusher, an explosion of high drama after all the low-key tension and unease."-- Helen O'Hara, Empire There Will Be Blood | List Price | $29.99 (You save $7.70) | | Studio | Paramount Home Entertainment | | Orig Year | 2007 | | DVD Encoding | Region 1 | | All Time Sales Rank |  21891  | | CD Universe Part number | 7629630 | | Catalog number | 132574 | | Discs | 2 | | Release Date | Apr 08, 2008 | | Rating | R (MPAA) | | Rating Reason | for some violence | | Running Time | 158 Minutes | | Additional Info | 2-Disc Widescreen | | Movie Details | Color; Collector's Edition; 2-Disc Widescreen; 2-Disc Collector's Edition |
There Will Be Blood Video There Will Be Blood Movie Review Average Rating: (3 out of 5 stars)   Daniel Day-Lewis is magnificent
Daniel Day-Lewis proves once more that he ranks among the best actors of all time. His performance is just as riveting and disturbing as the one he gave in “Gangs of New York.” His Academy Award is well-deserved, as is Robert Elswit’s for “Best Cinematography.”

 The covers lame,and so's the movie!!!
I didn't rent this movie for myself I rented it for someone else.Because I thought the movie looked boring,and lame.I'm not saying that people who rent it on purpose,and liked it,are boring,and lame.But it's possable.Anyway's I'd call this the type of movie you'd fastforward through,and get bored at watching it as it's fastforwarding.Also they don't need to spend million's of dollar's on a cr!ppy movie like this,that look's very amatuerish.Save it for a much better movie...

This review is for a different format. Wow!!!
There Will Be Blood is an impressive work of art.Just when I thought Daniel Day-Lewis couldn't top his jaw-dropping performance in Gangs of New York,he blew me away with his new rivetting character,Daniel Plainview.Paul Dano deserves alot of credit for his role.The film's score is haunting and very reminiscent of the original Dracula soundtrack.Bottom Line:There Will Be Blood's tale of greed,money,power,and madness will make this an all-time classic.

This review is for a different format. not as good as critics say
it never ceases to amaze me that some very well done movies are crited to death as glorified beyond all limits. While the acting and cinemotography were excellent, story was somewhat lacking and the ending far fetched. I didn't know if he was looking for redemption or just a natural prick.

 $14.79  
Based on the journals of Brother Gaspar de Carvajal, AGUIRRE, THE WRATH OF GOD is director Werner Herzog's hallucinatory tale of Spanish colonialists searching for El Dorado, the legendary city of gold, in 16th-century Peru. When the travellers reach an impasse, a scouting party is assembled to search for any traces of the mythical empire. As they attempt to forge their way through the dense jungle, more and more of the party falls ill while their ruthless leader, Don Lope de Aguirre (Klaus Kinski), grows increasingly insane.
Widely considered to be Herzog's finest film, AGUIRRE, which shares much in common with Francis Ford Coppola's APOCALYPSE NOW, highlights the director's visionary approach to filmmaking. Like Coppola's film, accounts of AGUIRRE's shooting are laced with legendary incidents, such as the time Herzog reportedly held a gun to Kinski's head to get him to finish a scene. Whatever transpired between Herzog and Kinski, it made for astonishing cinema, as evidenced by the actor's haunting performance and the entire film's powerfully hypnotic mood.

Sydney (Philip Baker Hall), a mysterious professional gambler, befriends John (John C. Reilly), a young man in trouble, and teaches him the ways of making a living in the casinos of Reno. John gets involved with Clementine (Gwyneth Paltrow), a pretty waitress who doubles as a prostitute, and Jimmy (Samuel L. Jackson), a two-faced criminal. When trouble erupts, suddenly Sydney has to rescue his young friend, but a secret from his past threatens to destroy everything he has tried to build up.
Director Paul Thomas Anderson's highly acclaimed debut feature (based on the films of Jonathan Demme and John Cassavetes) is a tight, intricate film noir character study with a more disciplined plot than his later, more expansive films. The film also features excellent work from his four actors, particularly Hall as the experienced, world-weary Sydney, and fascinating details about the lowlife world the characters inhabit. HARD EIGHT originated as a short film, CIGARETTES AND COFFEE, that Anderson developed at the Sundance Film Institute.

In this highly original comedy, an overworked family man (Michael Keaton) who doesn't have time to do everything he'd like finds a creative solution--he clones himself. Not just once, however--he winds up with four slightly different versions, counting the original. Of course, all is not as easy as it seems, and the clones quickly become a handful for the already stressed-out original.

There Will Be Blood video
$14.99
With NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN, the Coen Brothers have found a perfect match in Pulitzer Prize-winning author Cormac McCarthy. Their adaptation of McCarthy's praised novel is a staggering masterpiece. In this almost impossibly faithful adaptation, the film takes place in a small Texas border town in 1980. Sheriff Bell (a never-been-better Tommy Lee Jones) has ruled the land for years without the use of a gun, but a new brand of reckless lawlessness has taken over his town. Llewelyn Moss (Josh Brolin) is an innocent Everyman with a devoted wife, Carla Jean (Kelly Macdonald), but when he stumbles across a drug deal gone deadly and finds two million dollars, he's determined to keep it for himself. There's only one problem. He's being pursued by one of the most amoral, evil psychopaths that the big screen has ever seen. Wearing an absurd haircut and brandishing a pressurized weapon that's used to murder cattle, Anton Chigurh (Javier Bardem) creeps forward on his mission to track Moss down and return the money to its rightful owners to save his own skin. As the tension mounts, the body count begins to rise, confirming Sheriff Bell's inability to battle this new wave of modern brutality.
The most striking thing about the Coen Brothers' thriller is their masterly use of silence to create an almost unbearable level of tension. Cinematographer Roger Deakins is once again at the top of his game, beautifully capturing this stark and lonely world. The well-rounded cast is clearly excited to be a part of such a stellar production--particularly Bardem, whose Chigurh is a freakishly mysterious monster, and is certain to haunt viewers long after the final credit has rolled. In a career filled with striking achievements, this might very well be the Coen Brothers' finest. It is filmmaking at its best.

There Will Be Blood film
$8.35
A landmark in film history, EASY RIDER blew the studio doors open for more young directors than any film before or since, helping to create the wide-open climate that would lead to the production of many outstanding films in the 1970s. As its director, Dennis Hopper is usually given the lion's share of credit for the film's success, but the revelations of time suggest that the contributions of the late Terry Southern and, to some degree, Jack Nicholson have endowed the film with much of its residual power.
Starring Peter Fonda as Wyatt (alias Captain America) and Hopper as Billy, it traces the hippie duo's adventures as they mount their seriously chopped hogs on a journey to find the real America en route to Mardi Gras. In Arizona, they visit a commune whose members are having a tough time, and in a small Texas town they're jailed for joining a parade. But they're quickly sprung by an ACLU lawyer, the quirky, hard-drinking George Hanson (Jack Nicholson), who accepts their offer to join them on the trip to New Orleans, eager to visit the best whorehouse in the South. EASY RIDER accurately reflects the tensions and hostilities of the period, Laszlo Kovacs's photography is superb, Nicholson is exceptional in his breakthrough role--and the startling, stunning ending is a shocker.

This chilly adaptation of Oscar Wilde's novel stars Hurd Hatfield as Dorian Gray, a handsome young Victorian gentleman who remains eternally young while a portrait of him grows old and bears the ugly scars of his vile undertakings. The otherwise black-and-white horror film is notable for its lavish Technicolor finale--perhaps helping it score its Academy Award for cinematography. Angela Lansbury gained an Oscar nod for her role as an innocent singer whom Dorian corrupts.

If the actor extraordinaire Jeff Bridges's Excellency were to ever be put under trial, this double feature would be the defense's ace in the hole. In John Carpenter's unusually gentle STARMAN, Bridges plays an alien that has come down to Earth on a peaceful scouting mission and rapidly learns about the human race through his relationship with a young widow. In JAGGED EDGE, a wealthy socialite is found brutally murdered and her manipulative husband (Bridges) becomes the prime suspect. After an attractive attorney (Glenn Close) agrees to take his case, their relationship quickly evolves into what on the surface appears to be mutual love.
