Llewelyn Moss stumbles upon dead bodies, $2 million and a hoard of heroin in a Texas desert, but methodical killer Anton Chigurh comes looking for it, with local sheriff Ed Tom Bell hot on his trail. The roles of prey and predator blur as the violent pursuit of money and justice collide.
It’s what you would call a “classic” movie. And when I watch it I’m like yeah, it does feel like a “classic”, although I don’t know what makes it a classic. I don’t really see what makes it as good as what people make it out to be. It has a disturbing villain, it does have good tension but beyond that I don’t see much that makes me rate this higher. The long pauses and silence can create tension but sometimes I feel it’s overly dragged. The “weirdness” of the villain can make you feel disturbed but sometimes I’m like bro why you speaking like this, stop making your voice 10 times deeper for the aura effect. Overall, I didn’t vibe with the movie too much, I’m going to give it mid.
