Seems to end on a discordant note, but all is pretty much resolved as far as I could see.

What a GREAT movie!!
I loved the ending: An undercurrent of Evil persists unabated. And all our fathers are out there waiting for us in the dark. CLASSIC!!! |

Best.....Movie.....Ever
I've come to expect big things from the Coen brothers and they didn't disappoint.

the book is a must read. not mccarthy's greatest, but a good one. i rank them like this: #1, The Road (2007 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction) #1, Blood Meridian, and last #1, Suttree. from there we go to mccarthy's lesser fiction, which of course, are all rated like this, as far as i am concerned--#1
superb movie, one of my favorites of the year. of necessity, they dropped a major character development element in the sheriff, which played highly in the book, and which in many ways helps you grasp the title.

Sorry Folks, but that movie was a total mutt. Lots of top notch talent in one sorry waste of a movie..........Pearls before swine, I'd say.
Coen Brothers could, and have, done far better. That's my opinion, anyhow. Dave

Great movie with a dialogue that is sparse but telling. The moral:when you are ahead bury your good side.

I just hated the ending and I wasn't the only one. Everyone in the bathroom after it was over were just shaking their heads. I would have loved for Sheriff Bell and Chigurh duel it out and finish on a realistic note. What became of Chigurh?? He hurts his arm in the car wreck and walks away and gets away with murder.
