No Country For Old Men [SPOILERS]

I was really disappointed that there wasn't a gratuitously explicit sex scene between Brolin (Jesus! What a ******* carbon copy of his pops, eh?) and that broad of his.....she had that redneckish, backwards demeanor down to a tee, eh? Boy do I love redneck broads, man.
Anyway. Other than that small boner, it was a great movie. It was well written and even moreso, well casted. Brolin has been choosing his movies very well for a while now, eh? I see his name attached to a flick and I'm quickly assured that it's gonna be something pretty decent. I wasn't too familiar with Berdem before seeing this flick, but as others on this thread have already expressed, the dude was just ******* flawless in his performance. The dude was just a nightmarish and menacing looking mother****er, eh? At first I thought that I was looking at an even more worn-out and ragged Del Toro, if that's even possible, but this dude was just the ultimate in creepiness. I haven't been this disturbed and frightened by a character since seeing that hideous pervert from Little Children....the dude had my skin crawling everytime that he was on screen, man. I just wish that he would've been the one to have snuffed out Brolin's character. A last fierce battle to the death between the two of 'em would've been a more fulfilling conclusion to the film than Brolin being wasted anticlimactically by that Mexican gang, man.
oh yeah, an excellently understated acting job by Tommy Lee Jones....again, well casted!

Wow dude, great analogy. "I can't." "What? Why!?" "I just can't." "Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! crap!"
^^hurhurhur....ever been deceived into performing oral on a girl with the pretense of her reciprocating afterwards and maybe even letting you **** her but then all of a sudden her just deserting your ass as soon as she's finished getting off, leaving your stupid ass with a severely engorged Cock and a face reeking of sweat, pussy slime and a fairly detectable amount of piss?
Anyway. I'm about to get the book to do some comparative analysis. It's not that I don't trust the Coens in their adaptation of the book. It's just that I like to follow up on an adapted piece by seeking out the original source. I know ****all about Cormac McCarthy personally, but I've heard a lot of good things about 'em and All the Pretty Horses was a very enjoyable movie (didn't know that it was based on his work at that time), but now that I've seen this film, I'm gonna try my damndest to read up on all his stuff, man..........should take me an eternity, but I'll try anyway, man.

hey, sorry if this has been cleared up already, but who was it that got the money in the end? The Mexicans, right? And oh yeah, what's Sugar's(sp?) relation to those crazy ass Banditos....were they his suppliers, was he trying to hijack their ****, or was he their former leader or something?
I'm gonna try to go see this mother****er again later this week, man.

Chigurh gets the money at the end. That's why he hands the kid a 100 dollar bill for the shirt.
so he takes care of the Banditos then? I mean, wasn't the briefcase with Brolin's character when they ambushed 'em?
man, I'm ******* confused. My mind is already hazy and fogged out about the movie and the key scenes....I'm terrible like that, man. I can feel myself forgetting about **** as I'm watching it.

When the cop gets to the scene of the crime, there's two rooms missing locks. And Chigurh is inside one of them. I guess that hints he took care of everyone, and got the money as well. Also when he goes to that chick's house, he says his husband broke a promise. So she was going to die, that to me seemed to hint that he still ended up with the money.
I had to watch it twice to get the gist of it, but it still wasn't clear. I ended looking it up and ****. I think the fact that it made me take so much an effort to see what happened made me appreciate the movie more. Rarely a movie can do that.
SPOILER ALERT....AVERT YER EYES
hmm.....I see. It's just that when you see Tommy Lee's character driving up and the shootout is occuring, you don't hear Chigurh's compressed air gun-thingy, do you? All you hear are automatics and the Banditos shouting something in spanish.
And I still don't know what his relationship to those dudes was. I realize that he's got that superhuman aura about 'em, but why the hell did those banditos just flee without fighting to the death for that two million? I mean, they'd been tracking it for so long, had shed so much blood for it, and were finally within an arm's length of it, right?
Like I said, I've gotta go watch it again. I just wish we could've seen that last battle. I don't mind the protagonist dying in my stories. I don't much care for retardedly simplistic, lovey dovey neat endings, but I also don't want a total mindf(uck grenade being exploded on my lap either, man.
don't get me wrong, it's a remarkable flick....most likely my favorite for the year, but I'm just a bit confused, bro....and in the end, maybe that ain't such a bad thing?.....hmmmmzer

Anyone else find this flick to be oddly hilarious despite the crushing cloud of evil and doom hanging over it from the get go? I was just howling with laughter everytime Chigurh came into contact with a random hick on his journey to recovering the loot. The dialogue was just ******* surreal and brilliant, man.....unintentional comedy at its finest.
hey btw, that scene when he gets to Mexico and he blows up his vehicle infront of that pharmacey....what the hell was up with that, man? Was it just an act of diversion so that he could get to the back in order to procure himself the necessary medical supplies? Seemed an over-the-top act to me for just getting gauzes, needles and disinfectants, man. Anyway, that scene where he's treating is wound was so beautifully detailed, man.....excellent stuff!
Yo, Skip.....call it.

What I thought had happened was that Moss left the suitcase in one of those vents like in the other motel. And in the scene after he's found dead, the Mexicans flee. So my guess is after the scene was all over, Chigruh went in and got the money by breaking into the motel(s). In one scene he's hiding behind a door, and Lee comes in, but never sees him. It's still not that clear to me either, though.
Yossarian;2466298 said:
Haha, yeah. It had a lot of funny moments actually. The way he's so damn cold blooded it comes off as such a badass that you just laugh at it. Also in one scene where Moss is in Mexico on the pavement, and mariachis are playing next to him. Then they suddenly stop cause he shows him his wound. I'm not even sure why that was so hilarious.

It seemed like it. It was pretty over the top to me, too. But I guess if there's an explosion no one is gonna even notice that some weird dude is Carlos*ing medicine.

Ahhhh....I see. I don't recall the scene where he's hiding in one of the rooms and TLJ misses him, but I can totally grasp the scenario of Brolin's character hiding the case in one of the vents, the Mexicans not finding it and bailing out of sheer frustration and the shedding of blood, and then Chigurh coolly and calmly collecting his loot after the dust has settled....still havent figured out what his relations to 'em was, though.

Finally got to see this movie (it only just came out here) and I have to agree with the general consensus that it really is pretty awesome.
Coen brothers back on top form with one of their classic insular movies, loaded with twists and turns and comedy of the blackest kind. I absolutely loved the characters in this movie, everything about them was fascinating and original without going over the top, and the interplays and interactions between them were outstanding. Not one performance can be faulted. I also thought there were some incredible scenes and the story in general was absolutely riveting. There were moments that genuinely made me jump.
If I did have a complaint, it would be that there were maybe too many twists and turns to keep the story consistant, and that the movie was not quite as exhilerating and gripping after Moss crossed the Mexican border. Also, I was a little disappointed that Harrelson's character was so underused, there should have been atleast one scene of him doing something badass.
But all in all this was a phenominal movie, with a great ending, especially for someone like me who loves to see the bad guys win. Also there was enough ambiguity to keep me thinking long after the movie finished - you know I am still half entertaining the theory that the Sherrif and the Killer were the same person?
I'm not quite sure that this movie deserves to win the oscar in such a strong year, but it definately should be up there and I'm thrilled to see the Coens back on top form.
And also, what an amazing career boost this year has been for Brolin!
