Film: No Country for Old Men
31The film was was good but I think it is being a tad overpraised. As for the ending. While it may be appropriate for a novel, it completely dilutes a suspenseful climax one is hoping for in a film.

32i saw it last week.. thoroughly enjoyed it, have to see it again. I too was a little put off by the ending, but it wasn't enough to diminish the brilliance of the film as a whole. I was curious however, if anyone has ever seen a silencer for a 12 gauge in real life?
and did anyone else have to sit through this??

Ugh it seemed like it went on forever and no one in the theater bought it. Horrible band, horrible song, stupid video, I'll never get that 4 minutes back. Then we had to suffer through 7 previews. 30 total minutes of marketing.. ohh the humanity.

33This is one of the best films I've seen in years. Fucking perfect.
The Coen Bros. can do no wrong. Absolutely incredible.

Fucking sucked, no reason to kill the hero in this one, none, pointless. Yeah you could read in some metaphoric bullshit and dig for some poignancy if you want but you would be fooling yourself just like the cohen bros did. What a turkey. Its like nobody can make a point anymore without being completely bleak. Brutality for Brutalities sake thinly veiled with some mish mash philosophical ruminations. Total Bullshit, this confirms that the cohen bros have lost it . They are no longer capable of making a solid movie . Cheap sensationalism masquerading as art. "Perfect Movie" ? You are a fucking retard. IT had promise and threw it away. Incomplete story, no resolution. There was no ending they just gave up. I don't give a fuck that it was based on a novel CHANGE THE FUCKING STORY and change the cop out ending. Fuck this shit I am never seeing a new Cohen Bros Movie Again. Waste of money and time. I paid for an entire movie including a fucking ending and I want one Dammit!! Total Disappointment. Let down.

37There was this "ultimate badass" guy with a funny haircut. His coin-toss speeches were cool as hell. There was a lot of jolting violence and the whole thing looked gorgeous. I don't care what it supposedly means, I enjoyed it and thought about it for days afterwards.
What else do you need from a movie?

So what you're saying is "I want a chicken-shit movie with a chicken-shit ending."
