This movie has changed the whole idea of filmmaking. Both Ethan Coen and Joel Coen were successful enough to make it intense, dark and yet neo-noir thriller. The psychopath's character was very well written and polished. Maybe a remake of 'No Country For Old Men' should be made in Bollywood.

To be fair this was the 2nd product I've seen by Coen Brothers (after Fargo TV series) and the first movie with Javier Bardem I've seen. There wasn't too much dialogue, but the story tells it all. That's something I actually like, personally. All the dialogue occurs in the movie has a reason & also a meaning behind them. For the characters, there are three person we see the most: a hunter who accidentaly finds the money from a drug deal gone wrong, a sheriff who goes after the case and a hitman who's been sent to bring the money back. I can't say there was a prior protagonist to follow. Movie mostly focuses on each main character equally (maybe slightly more on Anton Chigurh).I must say I really liked the performances. Easily one of the best movies ever, but it's up to you to decide if you like it or not. I highly recommend it.10/10

The main thing about this movie I love is the way the Coen brothers use sound, particularly silence, to create tension. There is not a ton of dialogue in the movie, much of the film is just silent. One scene in particular that really stood out to me was the one where Llewelyn was fashioning a hook to retrieve the package of money from the air vents while Chigurh was moving from room to room attempting to locate the case. There was no dialogue at all through that whole sequence of events other than Chigurh talking to the man in the bathtub. But you could feel the tension building slowly, as this monster of a villain made his way toward our average joe protagonist. That leads me into my next point - Chigurh is an excellent villain, he's not too cliche, but he is also clearly defined as a villain enough to where the audience won't mistake him for a anti-hero type. I believe the decision to use the oxygen tank weapon was incredible. It makes Chigurh an incredibly unique character, and every shot of his heavy boots with the oxygen tank was terrifying and built tension very well. That's what this whole movie is about, suspense and tension. They pull these off very well. The reason I don't want to give this a 10 is because I feel as if the plot is still a little too cliche for my liking. The actual story telling, filming, and dialogue were all exquisite, but the story was a very predictable one, typical western style stuff.Overall, the uniqueness of Chigurh's character, the suspense/tension built during Chigurh/Llewelyn's showdowns, and most of Chigurh's dialogue all create a wonderful, gripping, suspenseful film that deserves a good watch.

A gritty and grim movie about bad stuff happening to relatively ok people.. Javier Bardem plays a villain with the stupidest haircut ever, I guess that's the downside of being as menacing as he is, nobody dares to tell you... features a coin flip more dramatic than many "thrillers" and "dramas" put together!
