Critics Consensus

Bolstered by powerful lead performances from Javier Bardem, Josh Brolin, and Tommy Lee Jones, No Country for Old Men finds the Coen brothers spinning cinematic gold out of Cormac McCarthy's grim, darkly funny novel.

Roger Deakins’s cinematography is as much a star of the film as any of the cast.

The lack of respect for the body, the sheer bloody aftermath depresses me. Yes, they may handle the killing with verve and ironic tension, but this is a Coen brothers film too far.

4/4

No Country for Old Men is a delirious drama that often echoes such classics as Psycho, Touch of Evil, and Chinatown.

5/5

The folksy characters typical of the Coens’ work are perfectly juxtaposed against the ruthlessness of Bardem’s incomparable performance. Both the landscape and soundscape are simultaneously barren and rich, mirroring the understated yet powerful dialogue.

Whether the Coens have made better movies is subject to opinion but there is something incontrovertible about No Country’s status as god-tier filmmaking. Repeat viewings do nothing to lessen its staggering power.

A mí parecer es una película intensa, silenciosa y profunda que deja pensando más de lo que explica,en lo personal me parece que el asesino es bastante bueno,de los mejores que he visto en películas,en general me causo bastante suspenso durante la trama y me agrado bastante,aunque la verdad no me esperaba que terminara de esa manera.

La verdad me gustó la película porque estuvo entretenida, había mucha tensión por los diálogos cortos y los tiempos largos, ya que no sabes que puede pasar y te tiene pensando sobre las acciones de el asesino o de los demás personajes, y aunque me gustó, algo que no me terminó de convencer fue la muerte rápida de lewelyn, ya que toda la historia nos estuvo hablando de él y haciéndonos creer que es "inmortal" ya que se salvaba de todos, y pues solo termina teniendo una muerte no tan gloriosa como lo esperaba

Es una buena película, genera la tensión suficiente sin necesidad de mucho diálogo o grandes escenas de acción

Beautifully shot, acting was phenomenal. Don’t think I’ve witnessed a character more terrifying than Javier Bardem. Just can’t bring myself to rate it higher given there’s no resolution to the film. Maybe that’s the theme, but I like a story with a good ending.
