Title is wrong, it’s not a rival gang, it’s just the same cartel who hired Anton to get the money back. That’s why he has the discussion about why they gave a second tracker and says “no, you pick the one right tool for the job”, because they also hired other people to go after the money in addition Anton.

There is no film that is as realistically atmospheric as this. The absence of music breaks so many rules of filmmaking. Without it we cannot aniticipate what is going to happen next. The greatest thriller ever made.

1:35 there's a distinct reason why Chigurh shoots the wall here; in an earlier scene he requests an identical room to room 138 (at which this shooting takes place), and while inspecting it he makes sure he knows where the light switch is (that's why he puts on the lights so fast as he bursts through the door), but there is also something else that people might have missed - he actually goes to the identical wall piece and knocks and presses it several times with his finger tips (this is very subtle, as he is in the corner of the screen) He does all this to make sure that, first of all, this very wall is a potential hiding spot for a gangster, and second of all, he makes sure the wall is thin enough for his shotgun to blast through (hence the knocking and pressing) It's these very fine details that prove this movie is masterfully done, but also great way to emphasize how dangerous Chigurh really is, he is extremely calculating and environmentally aware. He predicts what is going to happen and how things are going to happen... and someone who can tell the future is almost impossible to kill. Of course, he too is flawed, like the rest of the Old Men. He trusts the outside signals too much, thinking they really have a say in how the world is going to be (the heads and tails of coins, even traffic lights), the green traffic light nearly costs him his life, and proves he too, along with the old simpler time sheriff and classical lone hero (Moss) is unfit for the new world.

Some of you probably already know this, and others may not. But a few scenes before this Anton is in one of the rooms. He's doing what normal people would consider very weird things. Squeezing the wall, swinging the door open, and cutting on the light very quickly. But that scene truly shows what kind of man Anton is. Because he isn't just doing weird stuff. He's learning all he needs to know about the room layout, to execute the men as quickly and efficiently as possible. In a situation like that your environment can be just as deadly as the guy shooting back.

The answer is clearly yes because when he leaves the house, you see him check his boots for blood. Amazing writing.

🤣👏 god damn. This made my cheeks hurt with how hard I snorted.

No Country for Old Men single handily shattered my perception of what an exciting, and awesome movie could be. I first saw this film when I was 12 years old in 2011, once my dad had deemed I was mature enough to watch it. As a child prior to viewing this film, I thought movies like Spider-Man were thrilling and exhilarating. Any movie that I had perceived as being exciting before I watched No Country for Old Men became a mere afterthought after I experienced what it had to offer in terms of sheer intensity, combined with quality storytelling. I was completely blown away. Until that point I had never been truly immersed into a film before, let alone one of the most most suspenseful thrillers ever. Looking back on it years later, this movie made me understand that realistic films that depict what humans in the real world are capable of just makes for the most gripping cinema imaginable. It conveys a darker side of humanity, and how a persons life experiences and circumstance can shape them into something opposite of a normal human. After I saw this film I asked my father if people like Anton Chigurh really existed, to which he replied “Yes, hitmen like that exist all over the world”. This movie seamlessly takes a very real scenario, and mixes it with truly brilliant acting and fluent screenplay to give the audience an accurate view of how ruthless, elusive and, precise the most effective hitmen in the world can be. I wasn’t interested in superhero movies anymore after this film. It gave me a new perspective on what great storytelling is, and made me more interested in the production of movies as an art, as opposed to a conventional Hollywood blockbuster.

He probably would've been scouted by Gus, or even Don Eladio. The Salamancas probably wouldn't like him though for being another competitor as the cartel's muscle. Him & Mike though would've been too hardcore besides maybe some misses with "cleaning up" certain situations; he'd be running Victor & Tyrus out of there either ways. Keep it in mind, he wouldn't be no spring chicken either in that timeline - think he's around Mike's age (who also was in Vietnam).

Masterpiece is a term thrown around too often. This movie is a masterpiece! I never understood why the guy with the semi-automatic weapon didn’t come out shooting. Instead, he let the door open and then fires. Well, that split second was enough time for Anton to blast him away.

Nah...real life killings happen much more spontaneously...

The way he asks questions is the chilling part . His whackings are like an afterthought .

Imagine being a hardened criminal who’s lasted 40-50 years in the game and then being taken out by a dude wearing double denim and sporting a bowl haircut.

Imagine being the 3rd guy just heard one partner killed and seen the other shot in front of you. Then you see Anton eye to eye for 5 seconds before getting your head blown off.

Bardem nailed this role. One of the most horrible, terrifying villains in any movie ever. Played to perfection.

The way Chiguhr is walking down the sidewalk. That dead ass look in his eyes.

The second dude coming out of the bathroom didnt even have his gun drawn despite hearing all that? Yeah right..

Javier Bardem is a great actor

This was already my favorite movie when I checked into this exact motel in Las Vegas, NM while working in the area for a few weeks. Recognized it driving in. Although my worst experience was just the lame lobby coffee. The old hotel is also nearby.

The moment he takes his socks off and puts his bare feet on the carpet of a motel room send shivers down my spine. Truly terrifying.

I don’t think I’ve ever watched a movie that made feel like I’m on the edge of my seat like this one does. I tired my best to predict the outcomes of certain scenes but was completely derailed with what followed. This is one of the few movies you’ll see where it’s not based around the guy you think is gonna walk away and live happily ever after. It’s around the killer and all the victims in his wake. It’s a movie that truly has no heroes.

Bro the way he flicks the light switch when he breaks in...this dude is fucking experienced. Such a great movie with subtle scenes

Chigurh is one of the most horrifying characters in cinema

Gang member: “no me mates” Chigurh: “Understandable, have a nice death.”

Second guy deserved what he got for coming out of the restroom like a God damn robot in the situation

The little practical effects make things so visceral. Like the guy’s arm breaking apart at the elbow on the first shot and how when he gets blasted backwards it feels like he’s getting launched as opposed to him jumping backwards like ho it feels in most movies.

@@northaurora1 That might true too, just a simple movie mistake. But there's actually a lot more behind him turning on the switch; he can do it so fast, after he rams through the door, precisely because he is extremely calculating, making him the perfect killing machine. Remember the earlier scene where he gets a room at that motel? He gets a room identical to room 138, and while making himself at home, he inspects not only the level at which the light switch is, but also other points like the small wall at 1:35 which he shoots, in the earlier scene you can actually see him knocking and pressing the identical wall with his finger tips - he does this to know that there's a potential hiding place there, but also that the wall is thin enough for his shotgun to blast through (hence the pressing and tapping). Chigurh uses every possible clue to become environmentally aware and gain foresight into the future, the exact reason why he is almost impossible to kill. The movie wants to emphasize how Chigurh is always one step ahead of his foes, that's why they made him switch the light so fast and well, a mistake was most likely made

Anton is a psychopath and knows no fear. Even when the cartel hitman bursts out of the lavatory and begins firing at Anton, Chigurh doesn't flinch, his expression doesn't change, he just calmly aims dead center and kills the man. As Carson Wells said of Chigurh: "He isn't so much a 'who' as a 'what'."

When a level 50 player comes across a room full of level 5 players

Interesting visual detail: when Chigurh sits on the bed, don't watch him, watch the dead guy on the bathroom floor. You can see the actor is breathing (though I'm sure he is trying not to).

This movie couldve came out last year and would still be classic asf. Really ahead of the curve and visually looks way more modern than 2007

Javier Bardem's character or his portrayal of the character really freaked me out in this movie. Truly chilling.

0:37 that shot of Anton emerging from the darkness is straight up Michael Myers…

That guy is such a good villain for any movie

The uzi guy is terrible.. exposes himself first while pointing downwards

1:18 at “0.25x playback speed”. That arm turned into jello from ONE SHOT 😂☠️

Truly unnerving, that a "scene" can portray something like this

A dirty little motel with the absolute cleanest air duct in the world should call Guinness book of world records

The lack of a score for this scene makes the deaths even more brutal.

This film needs to be in the national archives and a must see for film students.
