So I saw No Country For Old Men last night.

[Your pal, Wally]

I liked it.  But I think the trailer park guy who found the money just wasn't very smart.  I think his first mistake was walking up to all the trucks out in the desert.  I wouldn't have done that.  Once I saw all the dead bodies I certainly wouldn't have touched anything, and I wouldn't have walked up to the truck with the dirty windows that you couldn't see into, that's just ignorant.

When I found the money, I wouldn't have just taken it home without looking through it.  There could be a snake in the bottom or something.  I think I'd have dumped it out and gone through it right there in the desert where I knew I was alone, which is when I'd have found the transmitter, and not after some guy had been chasing me from motel to motel all over the state.  The only smart thing to do with the money would be to bury it, with a gun.  That way if things do get hairy, you can use it to bargain for your life (You know, the old "If you kill me you'll never find the money" bit), and then when whoever makes you dig it up, you've got the gun right there.  I think Clint Eastwood did that once.  Smart man, Clint Eastwood.  Under no circumstances would I just be carrying it around with me.  If I did have the money on me, and I was in a motel room, I wouldn't have hidden in the vent.  I mean, come on, seriously?

I would not send my woman to go stay with her mother.  Anybody and everybody could find out where her mother lives.  It took the hit man like ten minutes.  That's an amateur's mistake.  I'd be like, hey baby, go pack your things, we're going camping.  If you're just hanging out in the middle of nowhere, nobody who is looking for you is going to find you. 

But all the trouble could have been avoided at two critical points.  If he absolutely had to poke around the truck with the injured mexican in it, use a glove or a shirt tail or something so you don't leave any prints.  Then, don't come back.  Returning hours later with water for the guy?  That's just retarded.  That's asking for it.  Number one, there's no way that guy was still alive by the time he got back, so it wouldn't do any good.  Number two, fuck him, he's a drug running mexican piece of shit, he can get his own water.  I mean, if you absolutely couldn't live with yourself (Not sure why not) call up the police from a pay phone and tell them there's a real thirsty beaner out there and they need to take him some GatorAIDS.  Or better yet, call up immigration and tell them that.

Take it from me, I have more experience with finding large sums of money than almost everyone.

Give us the ending too.

So... if you had to rate it, how many cabbages (out of 5) would you give it?

Give us the ending too.

Have you never seen this?

Why you gotta crap on my posts? 









Yep ... have seen it. 

[Your pal, Wally]

The trailer park guy dies, they strongly hint that his wife dies, the hit man has a bad car wreck but lives, and Tommy Lee Jones' character is completely pointless.  He never even sees the hit man, who could have killed him without him even knowing it, and then he retires.  Oh, and Woody dies too.

Four, four and a half.

I haven't seen it, so I just kinda skipped the OP.

[Legal immigrant]

huh?

If you were the driver of the Fairmont who gets stopped on the roadside, what would you do?

I mean, here comes a cop car with the lights flashing and you pull over.  The psychopath gets out of the cruiser NOT IN UNIFORM and proceeds to instruct you to remain still whilst carrying a compressed gas bottle and a thingy attached to it.  The psychopath then holds the thingy up to your forehead while you look like a deer caught in some headlights.

This is one reason I would NEVER consider living in Texas... the people there are just fuckin' st00pid!!!

In all seriousness, this is one of the best made films I've seen come along in years.

Well written and expertly directed.

His first mistake was feeling guilty about the thirsty mexican and driving back out there.
