This movie is underrated AF(on trakt.tv) even though it's one of the best movies of this Millennium with it's great acting, breathtaking story-line and the amazing directing.
10/10 in my opinion.

Oh, everything was soo well made till the last half of hour. . . They could do it better, or director wanted to show us other side of story, that "greed of money" dont takes you down.

Der Film ist so ziemlich spannend und gut, aber ich versteh überhaupt nicht was das für eine ende ist...

This is some crazy shit! While the reto look and the cast are both quiet good, the plot is mediocre and at no time was I sucked into the story. Wouldn't watch it again.

A fantastic movie; even-paced, gripping at some points, placid at others, and with a strong philosophical perspective which makes for one thought-provoking film worth multiple viewings. It's ambiguous ending might take the first-time viewer by surprise, leaving them scratching their head. But I think that it is an appropriate ending because it follows the movie's enduring theme and ends on a succinct summation of that theme. On another note, I like the film because there is nothing obscene and the dialogue has minimal profanity. There is a considerable amount of blood and violence, but nothing gratuitous or overly graphic. From an artistic perspective, I love how there is no score; there is no background music which helps accentuate the realism of the film and draw the viewer in closer. It was a really effective choice. The Coen brothers really did a very good job overall with this film.

I waited far, far too long to see this. I'd give this a perfect score if it weren't for what I think is a mistake made as the film concludes. The gritty, dusty Texas desert is the backdrop for an unforgettable tale of moral depravity and senseless violence. It's difficult to determine who's good, who's bad, and who's entirely psychotic, but that is the fun of this film. And it is a lot of fun.

Every character is likable in their own demented way. I could not wait for crazy Chigurh to appear on screen. He's nearly a ghost in his pursuit of Moss and he is absolutely merciless with everyone he encounters. He does, however, manage to engage his future victims in some of the most intriguing exchanges of dialogue I've heard in ages. Chigurh is a bad guy. No question about it.

I'm not a high brow film connoisseur by any stretch, but the Coen's complex yet addicting films make me feel like one.

Definitely one of the worst movies in my life.

"Beer leads to more beer"

That one of my favorite quotes. This is one of the Coen's best. Anton Chigurh is truly one of the greatest villains ever. Just relentlessly evil and smart. Javier Bardem is fantastic. The story takes a lot of risks, especially at the end and they work. It has the witty dialogue that the Coen's are known for. It's beautifully shot, which is expected with Roger Deakins. Overall it is a masterpiece.

"You can't stop what's coming"

Javier Bardem got all the attention for this role (not that it wasn’t undeserved), but for me Tommy Lee Jones is the heart of this movie. His character’s existential weariness had to have been such a difficult thing to communicate, but it seems so effortless. The film is pretty faithful to McCarthy’s source material so he deserves a lot of the credit–but Bardem and Jones elevate this beyond anything a book could accomplish.

Javier bardem....what a menacing performance

Great movie, great acting and directing, and extra points for cats and great monologues.

But wouldn't anyone in their right mind take the money out if its original case and put it in some different bag? I mean that's just common sense to me. Someone might be looking for a case _just like this_ which had money in it.
Had he done that, he wouldn't have gotten tracked.

And we wouldn't have a movie I guess :laughing:

Overrated boring movie not good

Would have been a perfect movie if it wasn't for that ending. Really underwhelming...

It's a rare thing when you manage to find a book adaptation actually worthy of the book.
The Coen brothers have turned Cormac McCarthy's modern classic into a cinematic masterpiece.
Everyone involved delivers their parts perfectly and the dialogue is spectacular.
I've read the book and watched the movie several times, still it is infinitely rewatchable and ages like fine wine.
One of the best movies to come out this century and in my opinion the Coen brothers finest hour.

I think this movie is totally a Coen brothers movie includes different subjects and stories in it but like the others it makes the movie hard to follow. Also, its plot has a lot of fault and unnecessary details, on the other hand, it is a one of the best directed films i have ever seen also the message is in the end kinda unnecessary but i like it. To conclude,its quality depends on the audience.

Definitely one of the most intense non-horror films ever made, Javier Bardem is absolutely terrifying in this role and really adds to the suspense and intensity of the film. Joel and Ethan Coen really capture the essence of westerns in such a modern and refreshing way through the incredible writing and directing and the cinematography really just hammers this home. It’s genuinely amazing how such a bleak and depressing film still feels so suspenseful and in no way boring. Out of what I’ve seen from the Coens this is probably my favourite which is saying a lot. It would also be wrong not to mention Josh Brolin and Tommy Lee Jones’ phenomenal performances and the last scene is absolutely perfect.

A movie to enjoy the ride that leads to nowhere.

Everything was going excellent and the... that ending. Javier Bardem did his best performance here, he is outstanding. But this movie has some unanswered questions and illogical situations that lowered the movie. And that inconclusive ending. So basically it is a movie to enjoy the ride because it leads to nowhere.

“No Country for Old Men” is a simple but carefully constructed cat and mouse thriller. It puts aside the goofiness and over-the-top dialogues that made the Coen Brothers famous to instead deliver raw violence and nail-biting suspense, with the complete lack of music constantly emphasizing the gritty and tense atmosphere. The snowy plains of “Fargo” are replaced with the gritty desert landscapes of Texas, the inept criminals give space to cold-blooded professionals, the cops are worn out by age and always one step behind. In the end, it’s not important who dies and who lives, as the plot is just a way like another to underline the profound resignation of a tired sheriff who can’t understand the ages he lives in anymore. I don’t think there’s so much worthy philosophy behind it, but it’s still a perfectly packaged thriller with great cinematography and a notable cast, particularly Josh Brolin as the resourceful redneck and Javier Bardem as the henchman with the ugliest haircut ever.
