No Country for Old Men Ratings & Reviews
- N8October 10, 2024Definitely 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.
- 匚卂尺ㄥMarch 29, 2025This is one of the best films I’ve seen for a long time. The acting was superb. The three lead characters were clearly defined and very different. Javier Bardem as the psychopathic multiple killer Anton Chigurh was quite outstanding. Almost every time his face changed expression, the hairs stood up on the back of my neck. The story basically is about a man finding a suitcase full of money and deciding to keep it. Simple, straightforward stuff. Almost every scene builds up to a blood stained climax or a narrow escape. The minor characters are well done too. Mrs Moss played by the lovely Kelly Macdonald was charming and Woody Harrelson was excellent as a rational hitman. My only problem with this film is the ending which lacked resolution (as others have pointed out). In one way, this is not important - there was never going to be a ‘happy ending’ and justice was never going to be done. In fact a happy ending would have been out of place and probably ruined the ‘existentialist’ message of the film – which seems to be ‘life is a bitch, get on with it’. Be that as it may, I was left unsatisfied at the end, which may reflect more badly on me than on the film. All the same, because of the sustained brilliance of the direction, script and film making, I would strongly recommend it.
- NonPlayableContentMarch 7, 2025The movie starts without us and just steam rolls from there just not how you'd expect. Only down point for me was missing a big gun fight and being confused for a moment which took me out of everything.
- Lasse Viinikainen5d agoSlow and simmering burn you don't want to look away from.
- ONEshotONEkil630July 17, 2025Horrible.
- bemi82April 1, 2025The greatest silent film ever made!
- Eric BakkeOctober 11, 2024Undeniably one of the finest crime-thriller-horror films ever made, packed with an overwhelming sense of tension and dread. Its gripping atmosphere keeps you on the edge of your seat from start to finish, and creepy as heck.
- thomasrogers753July 16, 2025Don’t hate but lowkey kinda overrated Not bad by any means, but a little overhyped
- JoelJuly 14, 2025If you made a movie this good in 2025, the streaming overlords would take you out back and execute you. First time revisiting this since my freshman year of high school I believe. Not much to say that hasn’t been said a million times before, it’s simply a complete masterclass across the board.
- mickerdooJuly 8, 2025Edge of your seat character, developments and action. Three leads are riveting. Cool weapons and smart moves. Ending was meh.
- EtrrnalJune 30, 2025This is an absolute masterpiece, no questions asked. The lack of music in the movie still leaves me in awe because of how intense every scene was regardless. Favorite movie of all time, would recommend.
- Chip GJune 11, 2025No good. No real plot. Just a psycho and guns.
- markb2001May 6, 2025Coen brothers do not disappoint
- Toufiq Ibna MustafizMay 3, 2025No Country for Old Men is the kind of film that will only cement the opinion you already have about its uniquely eccentric makers. Approach the ticket booth accordingly.
