I get where you're coming from. There will be Blood is based on an Upton Sinclair novel, Upton Sinclair was a staunch socialist and this could be felt in his writing. The film is a send-up of American exceptionalism. Daniel Plainview literally pulls himself up by his bootstraps. In my opinion it's an amazing comedy

Yeah I totally get it, I think the marketing did the film dirty and the pedigree of the actors and director didn't help either plus all of the oscar nominations made people expect something different. It's a very melodramatic and campy film, in the original script Daniel throws Eli down the bowling alley to knock down the pins after killing him.
