In the San Jose Mercury News review of There Will Be Blood, film critic Mary F. Pols says "there will be no other film like it this year or next, nothing that sounds like it or looks like it or feels like it." And Jonny Greenwood's score, she writes, is "as primitive, ominous, and exciting as the movie itself."
In the San Jose Mercury News review of There Will Be Blood, film critic Mary F. Pols says "there will be no other film like it this year or next, nothing that sounds like it or looks like it or feels like it." And Jonny Greenwood's score, she writes, is "as primitive, ominous, and exciting as the movie itself."
Pols praises Daniel Day-Lewis for his "insanely good" performance and his co-star Paul Dano for a performance that "could and should change [his] career." And speaking of careers, Pols writes that the film "should also do wonders" for its director, Paul Thomas Anderson, for "revealing a wider range of interest, skill and an admirable fearlessness as a filmmaker."
