After the modern western "No Country for Old Men," it only seems fitting that the Coen brothers would do a classic western with true grit and a wicked sense of humor. Instead of the remaking the film of the same name, they went to source novel by Charles Portis which pays off for all involved. The story about young girl who enlists a former U.S. Marshal to hunt down the killer of her father. While the story might seem familiar, the Coens along with the excellent cast and crew show the West as it might have been without any sense of nostalgia, an unforgiving place that's truly dangerous. Jeff Bridges reunites with the Coens for another classic that also includes Matt Damon, Josh Brolin, Barry Pepper and newcomer Hailee Steinfeld with solid performances.
