Just finished No Country for Old Men and I gotta say, the movie was genuinely great. The shootouts, cinematography, acting, atmosphere everything was top tier.

And Sugar was an absolutely peak villain. Every time that dude appeared on screen, it felt like homelander himself had entered the room.

But are we really supposed to believe Sheriff Bell was the mc👀 Hell nah. The real MC was Llewelyn , aka the hitchhiker dude. Bro was going toe to toe with one of the most terrifying villains in movie history.

Llewelyn was actually a decent guy too. He came back to give water to the guy who got shot in the desert. Was it a dumb move? Absolutely. From there the movie was peak. Bro survived cartel shootouts, got hunted across states, almost got his ass cooked multiple times, and somehow kept going.

SPOILER ALERT ⚠️

Then he gets officially smoked... and not even by Chigurh.

You're telling me after all that bro got slimed OFF SCREEN😭🥀 his wife's old-ass mother couldn't keep her mouth shut and basically got him found? That's how my guy goes out?

And the biggest crime of all...

WE WERE ALL WAITING FOR THE SHOWDOWN.

I mean WE all expected the final battle between Llewelyn and Chigurh. That would've been absolute cinema💯

Instead the directors just smashed the entire pot and said naah 🫠

I genuinely thought Llewelyn would come back somehow. Like he had some master plan, got another guy killed, faked his death, and disappeared. Some Better Call Lalo typa move.

But nope. Bro was just ded💀

Then the movie ends so fast I was sitting there wondering if I accidentally skipped 20 minutes.

And don't even get me started on Mrs Llewelyn, She could've just called heads or tails. This is why, kids, sometimes in life it's okay to gamble with life😀

Also shoutout to the Zombieland guy. Bro showed up, figured out everything in like 3 hours, knew Chigurh was dangerous as hell, and still went after him anyway.

Got smoked 🕊

Respect tho..

In football terms, No Country for Old Men is like Bradley Barcola. Great player, beautiful dribbling, creates chances, looks amazing on the ball...

...but can't finish. 😭

Am I the only one who feels robbed by No Country for Old Men's ending?👀
