Gave it 8 out of 10 on the other boards but have decided to knock it another half point.

Probably supposed to be something "poignant" about the "senslessness" of violence or whatever.
Tarantino had a similar take to yours but I'll counter by saying if there's a big climax as you anticipate then there *is* fundamentally country for old men.
