No there not moments of intense violence, but No Country for Old Men is their quietest, the most existential film yet. In this modern Western, Llewelyn Moss (Josh Brolin) is a Vietnam veteran who could use a break. One morning while hunting antelope, he saw several trucks surrounded by dead bodies (human and canine). In examining the site, he finds a box filled with 2 million dollars. Moss takes it with him, told his wife (Kelly Macdonald), he goes out for a while, and resumed the road until he can determine his next move. On the road to El Paso to Mexico, he discovers that he has been followed by Chigurh ex-special ops agent (a strangely calm Javier Bardem). Chigurh weapon of choice is a cattle gun, and he uses it on anyone who gets in his way – or loses a lot (in his case, bad luck is grounds for death). Just as Sheriff Bell (Tommy Lee Jones), a veterinarian of World War II, is on the trail of Moss, Chigurh’s former colleague, Wells (Woody Harrelson), is on his own. For most films, Moss remains one step ahead of his enemy. Both men are clever and resourceful – except Moss has a conscience, Chigurh does not (it is, like McCarthy says, “a prophet of destruction”). At times, the film plays like an old horror movie, with Chigurh as Frankenstein’s monster logging. Like the taciturn terminator, No Country for Old Men does not move quickly, but the tension never dissipates. This minimalist masterpiece is Joel and Ethan Coen and their entire cast, particularly Brolin and Jones, at the height of their powers. – Kathleen C. Fennessy

I can not believe that films like this garbage win best picture. There Will Be Blood was also terrible. Rating: 1 / 5
Well, in response to the “enemies” on the discussion page, I agree that the taste is different but a) you’re wrong about me, and b) the film has been and will always stink and be boring as hell. I have over 1200 movies at home, nothing Gandhi and Driving Miss Daisy in the Matrix, historical war films, documentaries, and everything else. This includes all types, all ages, black and white computer generated international mainstream, niech movies, Cult Classics – you name it, I got it. Heck, I even took college courses on film analysis and film production. . . None of this alters the fact that this movie blows. The acting was stiff, 95% was killed by too dark, the gun “was downright ridiculous, the end was nonexistent, and why this film won any awards other than the raspberry is a mystery in Hollywood . The movies that tend to win awards, often do so because there is a limited amount of industry, especially those who want to stand out from the crowd. Sometimes they get it right (Pan’s Labyrinth ) and sometimes they are wrong (as is the case here). Not even violence, as many here, he calls it, is something to write home about – you do not really see anything because it ‘ was shot in the dark, I saw the West with more violence than this excuse for a dull film (Soldier Blue). The critical (and ordinary people) can increase the film beyond its solvency real and pretend to be superior to others, with a better understanding of the intent, etc. blah blah… Nothing changes the fact that I was bored to tears with this mess of an overrated “film.” I went to theater with a friend to see the new Coen Brothers film. We had high hopes entering, but when we left, we wanted two hours of our life before. This is one of those films including “critical” expert hail all the things that keep this movie from becoming public. But for the ordinary citizen, you and me, this is simply a massive disappointment. The characters are flat, the story drags on 45 minutes too, in late May as the worst in film history… Stay away from it. The early reviews announced this one to the canon of “cattle bizarre” and that “extreme violence “, etc. Not true. The gun was a bit silly and most historical events do occur in the dark or behind a door (oooh) so put your imagination to work, rather as your eyes. This may work well for critics, but for an audience expecting a mad rush, it is a recipe for boredom. Rating: 1 / 5
My opinion, if you want a film that has an end, so he does not see it. If you like violence and lots of blood, then go ahead, it will make your day. Curiously, I was wondering how bad has received his curling hair so perfectly. My opinion, this movie was a total loss of my time. Rating: 1 / 5
No Country for Old Men is by far the worst film of the Coen brothers. I was hired at very low thereby opening detailed Graffic. Just to let you guess what happens at the end. I was not familiar as David Lynch, will head the last 30 minutes of film. He does not deserve the praise that the former Coen films do. For the record, I’m a fan of the Coen brothers and David Lynch.

Ok. . . I saw this film and it was terrible. I felt like I was always trying to catch up and understand what the point was. Total waste of time! Rating: 1 / 5
