The Miami Herald (Rene Rodriguez)
With No Country for Old Men, brothers Joel and Ethan Coen (Fargo, Raising Arizona, Miller's Crossing) remind you why they deserve to be ranked among the forefront of American filmmakers. If they also happen to be among the most inconsistent, so be it....read the complete No Country for Old Men (2007) review at The Miami Herald (Rene Rodriguez)

DVD Authority.com (Matt Brighton)
As I sit here and write this review, no more than ten hours ago Joel and Ethan Coen were on stage in Hollywood, CA accepting their second Oscar of the night (the first for Best Adapted Screenplay) and would soon be joined by Producer Scott Rudin to...read the complete No Country for Old Men (2007) review at DVD Authority.com (Matt Brighton)

Times [UK] (James Christopher)
In a sense, the film is a lament for old certainties which are cruelly swept aside, perhaps purged would be more accurate, by Bardem’s extraordinary monster....read the complete No Country for Old Men (2007) review at Times [UK] (James Christopher)

Washington Post (Stephen Hunter)
I appreciate "No Country for Old Men" for the skill in the film craft. I understand "No Country for Old Men" for its penetrating disquisition on narrative conventions and its heroic will in subverting them.

Whether or not you like No Country for Old Men depends a bit if you can appreciate the artistic thought that has gone into the film. It is thought provoking and very exciting at its high points.
When I first saw this movie advertised, it looked to me ...

There are 723 (or so) other reviews; thus I won't bore you with another generalized plot summary.
It's a profound film; not only because of what it has in it, or the way the plot shifts, but in its presentation. In its presentation, it tears a divide ...

this movie is so action packed and is an awesome movie. i love Tommy Lee Jones's performance in this movie. I Recommend it for ...

This top-notch action thriller's greatest strength is the pulse-pounding scenes where a psychopathic killer named Chigurh (impressively portrayed by a chillingly calm Javier Bardem) forces ordinary people to look death in the face. There's plenty of ...
by James A. Strong on October 26, 2009
Undeniably one of the Coen brothers' greatest films. They've usually been at their best when showing off their flair for updating film noir (as they did in "Blood Simple," "Fargo," and "The Man Who Wasn't There") and this time around, they mix in ...

This movie is first and foremost NOT a Hollywood concoction as many reviewers here would have you believe. Apparently Cormac McCarthy is not required reading in most fields of education. No Country for Old Men is a gut-wrenching book and a stellar film. ...

Product was as good as that song. Thank you for the item...I will watch it into the wee hours of the night. ...

The Coen brothers take a wide step away from the quirkiness of Fargo with this intense adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's novel. Javier Bardem plays Chiqurh, a brutal killer tracking Llewelyn Moss (played by Josh Brolin). Moss finds $2 million among dead ...

I have never had a movie have such a powerful impact on me. As brutal a tale and antagonist as ever hit the screen. Some reviewers seem unhappy with the ending but how would something this terrifying end? A great movie. I have not been able to make ...
