 Read the book instead October 6, 2008
Watched this recently, have to agree with some of the other reviews on here, very disappointing. Some great performances, notably oscar winner Javier Bardem, but a difficult film to follow if you haven't read the book.
Do yourself a favour, and do just that. Cormac McCarthy is one of the greatest living writers in the English language.
Let's hope the forthcoming adaption of his book 'The Road' fares better...
frustrating ending October 3, 2008
as usual a well made film, but nothing really to it, didn't really care about anyone, they didn't seem to have proper characters and the end was a complete cop out.
 A Rough Diamond September 29, 2008
This film has some superb performances and some stunning cinematography with some very good action sequences.
The problem is that there are several parts of the film that move at an incredibly slow pace. I'm not here looking for an outright no-brainer action film, and I enjoy character driven films but this film is just too slow in parts.
William Butler Yates September 27, 2008
NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN is so old and tired it can't get out of it's own way. It doesn't even struggle to its feet in order to at least end well. After a couple of tedious hours of the bad guy dragging about a cattle gun attached to a compressed air tank, the Coen brothers are so pleased with themselves, they decide to insult the audience with nothing more clever or novel than a blank screen ending. I was, however, relieved it was over.
I understand the existential angst of the film. The Coen's do portray convincingly the aching despair, hopelessness, and helplessness of the human condition. They point to the gathering storm and darkness on the horizon. Unfortunately, this particular film does not illuminate. I want to tell them that they got it wrong and it's okay; the end has been written; evil is vanquished and the prince of darkness loses.
 No Movie For Old Men September 24, 2008
Great movie. It is difficult to find a modern action movie without all the hollywood bling and this is it. Javier Bardem is haunting and brilliant in his role.
