There Will Be Blood

In A Sentence:
While I consider Daniel Day-Lewis to be a phenomenal talent (and this performance is absolutely no exception), I nearly choked on the whole "Epic feel" of this film, as it is consistently and rudely shoved down the viewer's throat without giving you a chance to decide its epicness on your own, and I simply can't decide if the lack of insight into the main character's motivation was a sorely obvious oversight in writing and directing, or if it was an intensely profound theme on the soul-less cavity of greed.

In Three Words:
Citizen Kane??? Hardly.
