its always the no music movies that are the best they captivate the viewers

not 'practically', but 'actually'. there's no soundtrack.

fuck yeah. Can´t describe the raw emotions you get in non-music movies. Bone Tomahawk is a great example too.

@@ching574 I know right. For some reason, when there isn't any music, your brain is just so laser-focused on the action and the dialogue.

Music in films has it's place, but too often it's used to elicit emotion when it isn't earned by the movie proper.

You can see him a bit on the window when he shoots down

A little too early? I feel like he shoot much too late. Anton was standing there for a good while scanning the vehicle, and he waited... waited until Anton already saw the blood and was expecting the attack.

@@adrianvelazquez6085 No, my post was about when Anton was sitting in the dark, waiting for him and the lock hit him in the arm.

@@gordons-alive4940 Llewelyn did have a chance though back before any shots were fired, at 0:16, where Anton STOOD in front of the door and Llewleyn didnt fire only because he didnt know who it was.

⁠@@michaelbabb1087i think he wanted to make sure that he comes in in case the door somehow miraculously prevent the shot to properly hit Anton, but then he got shocked when the lock flew towards him so he ran away

In the book Llwelyn completely jukes Anton with a simple shower trick and has him at his mercy.

I think that in the book Llewelyn even had Anton at gunpoint for a bit... ?

No. Anton's aim is perfectly fine, it's the fact that he is using a civilian legal Tec-9 which are famous for inaccuracy at long range.

Anton didn’t miss Llewelyn from the window,the bullet went straight through his hip and didn’t feel it cuz of adrenaline,you can see the wound when he gets in cover

@@CoolGuy-xi8pvi thought that was from the inner part of doorknob that hit him that wounded him

@@marksanchez1194 That wouldn’t wound him,it hurt him tho obviously

Surface level take

gun make no sound, take discarded

Please 🙏 read the book. It will change your view on not only the film, Antons world view, but your view of life in general. I think that’s not a hyperbolic description. It’s a very easy..deceptively easy 😂….read takes about 2 hours to 3. Let me know if you do I’d like to hear your thoughts 💭

what does that have to do with the realism of this scene@@goodnightvienna8511

nah it's still unrealistic but it's great mythic filmmaking.

That means he's 4x weak to dark types

There was easy ways to outsmart him. Especially in this scene. Build up pillows on the bed to make it look like a body, position yourself not infront of the door and go 90 degrees from the opening and crouch, he blows the bolt, hears nothing, opens, sees the body, either walks in to interrogate or shoots on site, you allow him to walk in blast him done deal.

Chigurh is a T800, cyberdyne systems model 101, living tissue over a hyperalloy endoskeleton

@@zachhoernemann2104 Did you just copy-paste "Things to Do in Denver When You're Dead"?

@@kyrpajooseppi888I’m sad no one else made the Pokémon connection.

I was wondering if he did that on purpose or if it was accidental

​@@Chrisishere21On purpose, he wanted to finish him off.

Yeah because the first thing you do when you hear gunshots is to go outside?

@@glorytoukraine5524 True. Although its surprising that the police weren't called.

Its 70s folks not some tiktok things happen that time 😂😂😂

@@HeeHeeHawHaw-ts8mt This is no country for old men, only old men calls the police. Heh. Seriously tho.... police response in films is damn unrealistic most of the times and... to be quite honest, I've been in the situation of hearing gunshots from the streets more than once. I really don't think anyone ever called the cops. You just don't know what the fuck is happening, as far as you know it's the police shooting someone.

If you know how many serial killers were out there in 70-80, you know people really didn't care that much.😂

Anton didnt kill him it was cartel

There was still a tracker in the money bag. He only found it because they kept finding him and it made him suspicious. If he hadn't looked through it before taking it to Carla Jean, it would have enabled Anton or whoever to find him and kill him

It would've been like chasing a needle in a haystack. Without the lead from Moss's vehicle, that satchel & tracker could've been literally anywhere.@@wll1500

Exactly!

?

@@xeno_19 It's very smart, Anton would have to make the assumption that at night he could be in the shower. He might wait in the corner on a couch, like he did to the women at the end. Or blast his way through into the bathroom and kill the showering victim. Either way, Anton would have no reason to suspect this play. Since the "good guy" had known Anton was coming, he also could've just not been in his room and waiting outside or even take a fire escape to the roof. The Vet was simply to paranoid to think of another strategy as he had no clue how far behind Anton was. So he made a bet on the shotgun/ambush play. It didn't work out well.

He actually does that in the book.. kinda. In the book he turns the shower on and tricks anton into thinking he’s in there. Anton actually enters the room and moss gets out from under the bed and holds Anton at gunpoint, takes him downstairs and then begins the shooting

Llewelyn shot too early - Anton was opening the door from the other side - he shot too far to the right

he didn't know for certain it was him and he didn't wanna make a mistake by killing an innocent person

​@@nifaco581that's why he's the good guy. Chigurh would have shot in his place.

Chigurh is a narcissist psychopath. If you ever meet one, and i have, im old, they cant fathom that someone else is smarter, and can do what you they can do, in this case nor that another Mexican hunter would be hired as well as him. "You choose 1 reliable tool". Chigurh was a very flawed killer. He left too many clues, got arrested, never got the money and made everything personal.

He placed an object in front of the door so he could square up his trademark doorknob shot It's supposed to be ambiguous as he set up the element of surprise. We've seen him shoot from a distance and press right up against the door for that cold glass of milk Plus you've got to consider the spread shot. These aren't slugs, police grade. He was using a sawed off for this very reason. I'm sure Llewellyn knows how to line up his target, but this is CQC. Anton is a bit of a vampire in these straights, you never know how he intends to approach

You don't know how shot guns work do you. He probably blew the bolt from an angled degree away from it, if you expect a gun man on the other side you never stand behind the door, unless it's a steel door, doors usually are made of shit material that you could punch through.

@@zachhoernemann2104 I’m saying if Llewelyn had a pistol and put rounds through the door and wall, _guessing_ where Chigurh was standing he definitely could have hit him, hard. I understand how shotguns work? He used the cattle pistol to blow the lock off, then Llewelyn shot once at the door frame and ran off. I’m not saying Chigurh could have ended it if that’s what you’re saying?

the T1000 would have definitely been hit, being a mimetic polyalloy it was able to keep advancing

And the movie end up just only half hour. Cinema goers must be supper piss and demand their money back

He also could've picked a better spot to take his position. I mean directly in front of the door seems like the most dangerous option. Maybe behind the bed or to the side? Also, why did Chigurh snipe the driver and not Llewelyn?

And in the end it wasn't even Anton that got him, it was the cartel itself

If llewelyn had killed cighur, would the assassins that would come after him be less or more skilled than cighur?

i don’t think he meant to wreck lol. probably thought it was a better idea to reposition instead of trying to leave

I think he staged the wreck and waited across the street to bait the shooter into thinking he died so the shooter would inspect the car and he could pop out and finish him

He wanted to end the life of the guy that was trying to end his. so he didn't have to worry about him anymore. smart but also a wild card of a decision

I saw somebody else answer this, I think it's because technically it could be some random person in the hallway. Gotta wait until the lock is popped, at that point you KNOW it's Chigurh.

I think Anton was a Vietnam vet as well

Perhaps they're all psycho? Killing so many innocent people!!!

Not underrated at all.

If Llewellyn could shoot through the door, so could Anton

@@glorytoukraine5524 Yeah but he's still shooting blind. He has no idea where llewellyn is. If he enters the doorway, llewellyn has the upper hand - first shot which is hard to miss. Although if he somehow does miss, he's screwed. Oh well, people don't always think rationally in the heat of the moment. He is far from a professional killer. So it's understandable

@@kuruptzZz Llewellyn in just a normal dude with some combat experience and training from war. He isn't the Punisher or Peacemaker, the dudes a normal bloke with some extra survival skills. He is being hunted by a sociopathic hitman, who so far has killed everyone he has wanted to. Llewellyn was fighting a ghost, Anton knew were Llewellyns room was and that was enough to discombobulate Llewellyns actions through paranoia. Dude was just scared, like anyone else would be in his situation.

@@dko-JackSkalington Chigurh is a human like the rest of us. He's not getting up after eating a shotgun blast

anton was flawed, but cmon he worked alone. Alejandro had the top military whispering in his ear.

Anton feels menacing by association. He's competent, compared to the incompetent people.

still didnt get the money. He lost and would have been taken out for failing.

​@@meisterlymanu5214it is heavily implied he retrieved the money in the movie.

​@@meisterlymanu5214He got the money 😅

he didnt, the mexicans drove away with it celebrating. @@alejandro10751

Anton is implied to be the essence of death in the story. You can't beat him, just keep running until he gets you

Jajaja

Batalla epica 😂

I believe it's a suppressed TEC-9

Which is impressive considering their dogshit when it comes too accuracy @@Bongo_Bain

​@@Bongo_Bainhow did anton get his gun back if lwelen got it when anton ran away with his injured leg?

Agreed, like I understand the decision on a thematic level but as a casual movie watcher it would’ve made the movie more engaging

Now also throw in the Joker.

Now also throw in the Joker.

The shot from the window.

You can try Tom Clancy's The Division and see if that's your liking

@@PrinceGummythe sequel to that game was dicks

GTA game with Dark Souls mechanics would make me break up with reality

No, he wouldn’t

I think it served two purposes, let me explain: first is that incapacitating the driver puts moss in a bad spot because he can either try driving from the passengers side, making him a sitting duck, or get out of the vehicle, giving Anton time to close the distance and secure his mark. Secondly, hitting moss first would have gotten the driver to react and probably haul ass; should he have been fortunate enough to escape, Anton would have had a body and at least a single witness to worry about. Edit: As @FabledGentleman said, the money could disappear with the driver too, which is Chigurh's goal at the end of the day.

He is not after Moss, he is after the money. The money is in the car, so he has to kill the driver so the money isn't disappearing for good. The Bonus is that once the driver is dead at the wheel, it's very difficult to oust the driver and take over the vehicle while Anton is approaching.

he assumed he was driving. Because Anton would have killed the driver and driven if he was llewelyn.

To stop the car driving away, no matter who is driving. Also, Anton could probably not tell who was driving at that range in the dim light.

trackers were aliens in 70s, hed never seen one. No one had. He was just a ex con hunter.

It’s allegory. Cormac tends to rely heavily on allegorical writing, lots of Blood Meridian is like that, almost Biblical in its essence.

No

agreed, i felt the same about Nolans Inception and Interstellar, yet millions younger than me ejaculate to both of them.

It's 1980 West Texas, remember no 911 system existed until the mid to late 80s, the sheriff probably had 1 or 2 officers on duty and probably far away. Not a bustling city yet so nightlife was quiet unless you went to Austin.

yes cartel tracked his mother and killed him in the hotels anton got away in the end

Anton will just keep after him; better to just try end it now especially when he had the advantage.

yeah,,, but he was a viet vet. not in his thinking to run. He fights, and soon enough is following Antons blood trail.

It would ruin it all

@@Jajusz you just ruined it
