Saw No Country For Old Men tongiht...
    #7989250 - 02/06/08 09:24 PM (15 years, 11 months ago)

Powerful film...incredibly violent, fascinatingly so. Anyone else seen it? Did you enjoy it? The ending came out of nowhere to me...I wasn't feeling like the movie was dragging at all, I thought it would go for another hour or so!

Javier Bardem was scary as hell.

It's unbelievably good imo.

So brutal and real.

That first death with the cop was so unexpected, I saw it stoned and it really shocked me in a way that movies usually don't.

And I did like the ending. Plus the action scenes were just awesome.

The first death sets the table. I'll never get shot out of my head...it'll probably haunt my dreams tonight.

This and There Will Be Blood were both just amazing, amazing films.

And the score by Johnny Greenwood was awesome.

Definitely, DEFINITELY see There Will Be Blood on the big screen. It's downright Kubrickian at times. Just epic in scale, such great cinematography, and an eerie, eerie score courtesy of Mr. Greenwood. Daniel Day Lewis is mindblowing...his performance, and Javier Bardem's, are interesting parallels...completely driven men.

The story was great until it left me hanging and wanting more.  :hehehe: I would like to see a movie using some of the same characters completely independant and unrelated to any of the events in this movie though.  The character developement was awesome.

I saw it a few days ago. Thought it was excellent. It has one of the greatest villains ever depicted on film I think. That movie captivated me from start to finish.

I just got done watching Juno. Definitely on the opposite end of the spectrum compared to NCFOM but I loved it as well. I highly recommend both movies to anyone.

usually`the american public watches complete fuckin ggarbage. actually good, artistic movies ar tossed aside. of course the creators of this brilliance ar part of the 'new school' of really brillaint hollywood directors. icluding:

coen brothers: no country
chriatopher guest (smart comedy)
paul thomas anderson (5 academy awards)

no country, there wil be blood, into the wild, atonment, gone baby gone ...these are the movies which are good, entralling and should be blockeubsters

however the moron, fat droooling public drops all their cash on crap film filed with special effect. mezmorized by the pretty colors. like transfomers, which made soooo much money and has a fucking disgustlingly terrible script....fuck

Highlights:
"You don't know what your talking about." That poor fat old man.

"Where does he work?"
" I can't give you that information."
"Where does he work?"
" I just said..."
"Where does he work?"

Being inept at simple dealings with people myself, I loved the way this guy dealt with people and his inability at cordial conversations

Plus: Nothings cooler than a silenced shotgun. Brutal. Just to see what it does, without the loud distracting bang.

Drawbacks.
The ending was anti climatic tic, but such is life. (especially when it isn't your material)

No Country for Old Men = best Coen brothers film in years.

Funnily enough I watched it last night, slouched on my sofa with a cold and ear ache, full of painkillers - in a weird way it really cheered me up!

It felt and looked a lot like Blood Simple.

No Country was a DEEP fuckin film. It leaves you questioning life, and why we all fight within it when it's really just us against chance.
gah

but There Will Be Blood was a much harder pill to swallow. I loved it cause it's my kind of film, but there were many people in the theater with me who just walked out. I guess it's too slow for most people.

NCOM is such a polarizing film. I haven't heard anyone say "it was okay". Everyone either loved it or HATED it.

Personally I LOVED it. The whole time I was watching it the tension was so heavy that I was literally sitting on the edge of my seat. Somewheres about to middle of the movie I had to make myself relax because my tummy was actually hurting.

Then I went to sleep and had dreams about Sugar all night long. I didn't even realize how deeply his character creeped me out until he totally owned my subconscious.

It seems like the most common complaint about the movie is the ending. I can't understand it. If you were paying attention while watching the movie how could you have expected it to end any other way?

One of my favourite moments is when he's standing on the front porch, scraping off his boots. It only lasts a split second, but it tells you everything you need to know.

Man, I can't wait to watch it again. Just thinking about it gives me a semi.

i went to see it in the theaters but didn't really get to pay attention because i was babysitting my very intoxicated friend who kept nodding off and snoring loudly much to everyone in the theaters dismay.

the parts i did get to watch looked pretty good though. i definitely want to give it a proper viewing.

I just saw this film tonight. Anyone else wonder what the hell happened during the final 20 minutes? After Moss suddenly dies (you don't even get to see it happen) the movie just went downhill for me. I felt disconnected from the story and the ending left me frustrated. What happened to the money? Why did the directors skip the scene of Moss's death entirely? He was a captivating character. I don't know. I enjoyed the first 90 minute ride. It was very suspenseful. I loved how they built the tension with the use of silence. And the picture was great. But that's about all that intrigued me about NCFOM.. All in all it left me hanging. Did not live up to the hype in my opinion. :shrug:

I saw it the other night with my girlfriend. She fell asleep, but as someone else said, the first murder had me hooked. The cold and callous nature of Chigurh topped it off for me. Played perfectly by Javier Bardem. Reading this thread makes me want to view it again, i may go and rent it for the night.

Also, what are peoples opinions on the fate of his wife? Do you think Chigurh killed her? Im leaning towards a yes, but it was unclear, got me thinking....

My take on it is that Sigur got the money. At the end when the Sheriff is in the El Paso hotel where Moss was killed, you see that the air vent was opened. The same type of place where Moss stashed the money in the first hotel. Also, I think Sigur was in the room when the sheriff came in to look around.

As far as skipping the Moss's death scene is concerned.. his killers were insignificant, as was how he died. I thought there was more impact in not seeing him killed, because for that brief second they had you really guessing as to whether he was dead or not.. something we were hoping wouldn't happen, but we really knew would come to pass. For such a violent movie, not showing the death of the main character was a way to give it more oomph. Blah, blah, blah. Sigur killed Moss' wife, too. He checked his feet after he left the house.

So anyway. If you want my breakdown, here goes.

Sigur is death. Death is as ruthless as Sigur was. The movie is about Man's denial of death's inevitability, and ultimate acceptance of his fate. Moss is denial. No matter what he did, Moss could not escape his eventual doom. Death followed him the whole way. In the end, the Sheriff is acceptance.

Sheriff: I don't know. I feel overmatched.
...
Ellis: What you got ain't nothin' new. This country is hard on people. You can't stop what's comin'. Ain't all waitin' on you. That's vanity.



And then, at the end in the kitchen, the Sheriff finally comes to terms with it all in his dream..

Quote:

It was like [me and my father] was both back in older times and I was on horseback goin' through the mountains of a night. Goin' through this pass in the mountains. It was cold and there was snow on the ground. He rode past me and kept on goin'. Never said nothin' goin' by. He just rode on past and he had his blanket wrapped around him and his head down, and when he rode past I seen he was carryin' fire in a horn the way people used to do, and I could see the horn from the light inside of it. About the color of the moon. And in the dream I knew that he was goin' on ahead and that he was fixin' to make a fire somewhere out there in all that dark and all that cold, and I knew that whenever I got there he would be there. Then I woke up.



I over-analyze shit, for sure, but this was an excellent movie.

I thought it was a good movie. Way too Cohen-brother-ish at the end though, I love their dialog and everything but damnit finish a movie.

I thought it was boring and overrated. Seems like the critics were falling over themselves to praise anything the Cohen Brothers put out, regardless of whether it sucks or not.

There Will Be Blood should have won best picture IMHO. :shrug:

I hear so much praise for this movie. I have yet to see it. Dude's haircut is pretty gnarly, though. I'ma go buy the DVD.
