Does Daniel Day-Lewis' overwrought, Oscar-nominated turn in "There Will Be Blood" prove he's too taken with himself to surrender to a role?
  • first the movie, now the actor...

    This critic has spent a lot of time trying to prove that this film is not all that good. Wow, that makes about 99% of all the films ever made absolute garbage. I must be really stupid for having enjoyed it so much--oh, and pretty much every other critic is stupid too I guess, since the movie scores a 92 on metacritic....

    I'm all for contrarian opinions but this one just isn't defensible. Overwrought? Isn't it supposed to be?
