Compare a 2023 detective to a ranger of the wild west, those guys hunted people through the whole united states for years with a horse, a gun and a knife, tracking people down with no issue for hundreds of miles. Things are always somewhat balanced, even now it's far easier to get away with things in the court of law, in the past you wouldn't even see a court, you'd just be taken off the map

Well, he certainly is competent and ruthless. He rehearsed that whole entry in his own room before he went and killed those three cartel goons. He timed his door opening and switching on the light, and went about checking the thickness of the wooden walls for bullet penetration. And made note of possible hiding spots in the bathroom and closet. That and the cartel goons probably had no idea that someone like Chigurh was coming for them.
Your average armed goon/criminal, while still dangerous and not to be underestimated, rarely has any training or familiarity with their gun. You see a lot of spray and pray tactics and criminals with goofy tactics like having drum mags in their Glocks. Anton wasn't invincible or a super killer, but he had discipline, ruthlessness and enough preparedness and training to easily overcome whatever incompetent opposition he was likely to encounter.
Well, he terrible peripheral vision, as well :P But seriously, people with the most basic training would know to be suspicious of this guy immediately. He's lucky he didn't run into someone with actual training, he wouldn't have survived.
The killer always has an advantage because they know they are going to kill. A second of hesitation, or a momentary thought to verify a threat is all that it takes against someone who is prepared to kill and has made a plan to kill. Anton is smart enough to only engage when he has the upper hand, and smart enough to have a plan. We see in this movie that as soon as he loses the advantage he runs. So no... he isn't super human. But he is prepared to win every time.
But like why was he sitting there in the dark while the other two men were in the bathroom with the door closed? Were they all three about to get it on?

I really like this scene, because TO ME it explains the *SPOILER ALERT* almost abrupt, anti-climatic ending of Moss being murdered by the cartel. It shows the Cartel were one step ahead of Anton since they are already at the motel where Moss was hiding the money, meaning they somehow tracked him faster than Anton did. You also get a cool glimpse of how methodical Anton is before this scene happens where you see him checking out the empty hotel room and how thick the walls are so, which is why he knew prefiring at the bathroom would be effective. Just my own take on this cool scene.
Somehow? He literally kills the guy that hired him, and says to the guy he was talking to “he gave the Mexicans a receiver. That’s how the Mexicans tracked Moss
@@DILLIGAF785643 Yeah, the cartel members in this scene tracked the money using the same signal that Anton does. This scene just highlights the difference in approach between the two. The cartel members are rash and careless, while Anton is patient and scouts everything before making his move. Anton's preparation to scope out everything before making his move is how he discovers the cartel members before they have a chance to notice him in turn. One of the repeating themes in the movie is the mirror between Moss and Anton, where they are both observant and plan before making their moves. Anton's frustration with Moss being on the same level of planning and prep is what eventually leads to Anton getting anxious and making mistakes. Anton views everyone else as being on the same level as farm animals waiting for their fates, and he starts making dumb decisions in an attempt to take it out on the random people around him.
Fun fact about the books: Anton, like most of the other MC’s is a veteran. He was I forget either an army or a marine sniper. Both in the books and the movies he has a general aversion to getting blood on himself. Hence the closing the curtain with the bathtub guy then checking his shoes at the end and kind of wiping it clean. He enjoys the killing, but doesn’t enjoy the messiness of it. Being a sniper is the best of both worlds. Get to kill people, but you never really have to worry about getting blood and guts on you.
What I love about this scene is nothing is wasted. The kills were brutally and effectively done. No rage or misplaced feelings. Everything is nearly perfectly calculated and necessary.
I would disagree in regards to the shower kill. Anton fully looks away from the guy a good 2 seconds before shooting, which if the guy wanted to he could have pushed the gun away and started a scuffle. Anton's choice wasn't of efficiency, it was slightly reckless.
The best part of this scene which is unfortunately left out is when Chigurh checks the adjacent room to look for all the places where people could hide so he’s 100% prepared when he enters the room with the cartel guys in it. A Horrifying level of intellect.
a brutal detail i didnt notice until now is the man sitting on the bed has his arm bones DISCONNECTED by the first shot, causing it to just dangle before he's killed

If he had managed even a glancing hit with just one bullet, he would probably have messed Anton Chigurh up at least as much as the car collision did at the end of the film.
@@stevekaczynski3793I agree. Out of all of the guys in that hotel room he had the best chance to shoot and injure Anton. When he opens the door to shoot at Anton however he had poor technique.

A lot of this movie's action sequences make more sense when you assume everyone who isn't Chigurrah is constantly startled/panicking. He's the only one who enters the fight with a calm head and a plan. Dude in the toilet probably didn't really process why his buddy yelled out from the bedroom, until he saw Chigurrah. By then, Anton was already ready to shoot. Also since there were two men in the bathroom with no reason to hide there, they were probably taking drugs in there together. Very dulled by the time they heard screams.

Hey everyone, I just realized, if you start watching from 1:15, the man in the bottom left corner who is supposed to be dead is actually blinking... It's a blooper.
Seems Anton is lucky as well as good, the guy in shower could of easily killed him but apparently not up to the task, Moss being a veteran and a hunter should of set up Anton for an easy ambush. He needed to kill him to get away with the money and not have to worry.
He saw the shower guy in the bathroom mirror. The only chance the dude had was possibly grabbing the barrel of the gun when Anton pulled the shower curtain shut.
@@NeoStoicismthat’s what a lot of people don’t seem to get about Anton, he’s not supposed to be a tactical killer but more a semi supernatural force who is on a different playing field entirely.
The beginning of this clip always freaks me out. Partially shot the first time and then finishes him off. Guy yells both times while others who got shot dont make a sound. The sound FXs and "silenced" shotgun is insane
They never stood a chance against Anton. He'd already done recon on the motel. He studied the blueprint, and even measured the thickness of the walls. Killers like him and Malvo from Fargo are second only to Hannibal Lecter who can kill with words.
An "Underrated Bad Guy??" LOL...Are You Kidding? Shortly After The Release Of That Movie, Anton Chigurh Quickly Became One Of The Most Iconic Bad Guys In All Of Cinema History.
Yes , however it’s now generally acknowledged that Blood Meridian is unworkable a film. Too much , just a biblical descent into The Rings of Hell as Judge Holden as Virgil. It would just get so many people from so many angles angry etc even before you try to work out how to portray the violence because that’s what makes up most of the interaction in the novel . Sure, someone might give it a go but I’d be very wary of any modern adaptation of what is meant to be a period novel in its grammatical sense and just sheer body mutilation .
@@goodnightvienna8511 I dunno honestly, horror movies have a pretty large following and those can get naturally extremely graphic (even bordering on cartoonish levels of violence and gore in some cases), which obviously Blood Meridian is not, but I do think you could adapt it to film and keep the violence grounded just fine. The problem is that you couldn't really mince any of the scenes so you'd have to either split the movie up or just make it a TV series adaptation. Something that's kinda floated around in my head for it, and it's more tongue in cheek in nature, is having an adaptation in the style of an mid 80's cartoon a-la GI Joe but keep all the dialogue and gore intact. I feel like that would be an amusing but very fitting take for the story in a strange way. Maybe I'm just kooky though.
@@bolivianbillionaire1349 Nah you can, Silencerco makes a couple specifcally for shotguns. I'd know, I have one on my Remington 1100 because of this movie lol.
Having read the book and listened to the audio book (highly recommended..!!) there are quite a few differences that are in the film but not in the book.. The dog that chases Moss in to the river, the accountant in the office who asks " Are you going to shoot me?" are just a couple of examples. Also when Moss rings Wells and Anton answers, in the book Moss says "i think i got the wrong number" but in the film he asks "is Carson there?" and Anton answers " Not in the sense you mean" Clearly the Coen Brothers have added a few nice touches but both book and film are on another level..i also love the part where Moss picks up the young girl hitch hiker, the dialogue between them is fantastic

@@sliceserve234 You're right, apologizing is gay.
The upside down lamp on the floor provides some pretty cool lighting in the scene.
True, has a very south Texas kinda vibe to it
@@sggsdsgdgsd6897 how do you mean? I live in the Midwest. My cousin spent time at Ft. Bliss, but besides the little he has told me, I know very little of the area.
Im a locksmith, blowing out the clyinder won't bust the bolt.
But it *would* unlock the door.
@botmes4044 exactly, no pun intended lmfao
@@botmes4044I laugh so hard 😂
@@botmes4044nope you need the lock to unlock the door. The bolt would still be door frame. And blowing out the lock would destroy the actuator that moves the bolt in and out of the door
Nothing on one,
Click out of two,
Thwree feels springy.
I love how the guy on the beds arm just flaps about completely severed at the bone only the skin keeping it from falling off
People overlook that the second guy Anton shot was already wounded after eating a couple shrapnels through the wall..
That maybe true but he still he should have hit Antwon with that uzi.
He was not, Anton did not fire where he was
Anton did fire into the closet. The second guy was in the bathroom
@@Cthusiest_jeff he shot the left of the door, uzi man was to the right
Stop the clip at :22 -Man is firing the gun and brings the muzzle up while doing so. He would have hit Anton and/or made many holes in the wall, furniture, etc. and out through the front door of the room to the outside.
At :24 -Anton actually missed and hit the wall to the right side of the door. 😆
The silence is deafening.
When he shoots the first guy and it nearly rips his arm off, I love how the second shot throws him up the headboad!.. 😮
you can see the guy dead on the back is still blinking lmaoo min 1:15, didn't catch that the first time I was watching it
That guy was cold as ice and brutal
Unpopular opinion - that random Mexican guy with an uzi was the closest guy ever to kill Anton (maybe on par with Llewelyn).
If he had managed even a glancing hit with just one bullet, he would probably have messed Anton Chigurh up at least as much as the car collision did at the end of the film.
@@stevekaczynski3793I agree. Out of all of the guys in that hotel room he had the best chance to shoot and injure Anton. When he opens the door to shoot at Anton however he had poor technique. If you notice he had the uzi held down and had to raise it up to shoot. That gave Anton that second to get the first shot off
@@monddubb9792 You think he has poor technique because he is poor financially?
@@mkultra2456 wth are you talking about?
@@monddubb9792 Answer the question
The guy running out with a UZI pointed at the floor is not too self preservation conscious.
Not a great marksman.
You're right but that was a poorly written sentence.
@@mkultra2456 Dude English isn’t my first language gimme a break.
@@cedmelancon NEVER! You must learn the master language!
I think my favorite part is when Anton is taking off his socks you can see the guy in the bathroom blinking a bunch.
On way of getting a room in a motel if the manager tells you we are fully booked.
What if the guy at 0:57 side-stepped as he pulled the trigger and just chilled in the shower for the rest of the scene lol
it's a shotgun, bruh
@@kangaroosoup. At that range (point blank), there wouldn't be any spread whatsoever. Sidestepping would have worked.
You can see the guy in the bathroom blinking in 1:14
How u noted that🧠
Also he didn't hit the TV when he shot at the wall, from the angle it seems he should have 🤓. It is a great movie anyways.
Didn’t even flinch with that first hit marker 🤣
TIP: When I remove wet socks, which is not often, I think of this scene 1:20... Then I try to approach the rest of my day with Anton intensity
I always see the guy with the Uzi and think his previous acting gig was being a character model for the Area 51 arcade game 🤣
Haunting disturbing and intense, one of the 10 best films of the decade 2000 thru 2009.
The power of Bardem’s performance is electrifying.
0:23 reminds me of GTA 4 Euphoria Physics
"Housecleaning. You want mint for pillow?"
Deal the LEAD! The way he shuts the curtain is a JEWEL
Imagine hearing gunfire and opening a door with your fully automatic weapon at your knees…😂😂
nothing scarier than no emotions
No emotions for old men.
It really feels like when my mom enters my room while I'm resting
you’re not lying. one time im taking a nap in the dark and my father slams my door open and literally screams my name, i jumped straight up and clutched my heart omg he almost fucking gave me a heart attack
This was technically the right room. Moss swapped rooms after storing the money there. This WAS the first room he checked into.
Something is missing her , moss asked for an additional room, that means that his first room should stay empty, so why do we have three Mexican in it ?
@@salimsalim-sf2yt they raided it
@@salimsalim-sf2ytThey got there before Anton did, since it’s their money. It pays off later when they beat him to the punch and kill llewyn off screen, robbing Anton of his satisfaction.
@@salimsalim-sf2yt They were waiting for Llewelyn to come back. These were the same guys who shot him and put the Pitbull on him when he brought the water for the dying man.
A lot of this movie's action sequences make more sense when you assume everyone who isn't Chigurrah is constantly startled/panicking. He's the only one who enters the fight with a calm head and a plan. Dude in the toilet probably didn't really process why his buddy yelled out from the bedroom, until he saw Chigurrah. By then, Anton was already ready to shoot. Also since there were two men in the bathroom with no reason to hide there, they were probably taking drugs in there together. Very dulled by the time they heard screams.
How did he hit the second guy? He shot the doorframe!
@@spencerpbringhurst3792 yea but i thought with this surpresser the spreading is not so big.
@@Oelsn92 suppressor wouldnt really affect the spread much i believe but there are a lot of different types of buckshots, some with slim and wide spread, theres even some that go wild like birdshot
@@cherrypoptart2001the choke tube in the barrel is what changes the spread of a shotgun round
you set the choke with a barrel or device after the barrel, the suppressor itself wouldn't change spread dramatically
@@cherrypoptart2001 You gotta lay off the anime.
The ballistic/ kill audio in this movie is God tier
It's been a few months since I've seen this movie, and I'm a grown man, but sometimes Anton Chigurh hunts me in my dreams and I can't ever stop him.
That’s how you know it’s one hell of a movie/character
What about Clarence Bodikker from RoboCop?
I'm a grown dude too, and lemme tell you this guy was the first movie character in a non-fiction to actually scare me! For most of the movie I was nervous what he would do next.
This is not a non fictional film, friend
I dream that I am him
With the appropriate soundtrack, this scene could be comedy.
Benny Hill soundtrack all day
@@MaxPower-ke5rq
Reading my mind.
Damn that first guy is one of the most brutal scenes ever filmed.
I never caught the way his first victim’s arm was nearly severed and flailing before the second shot sent him off the bed. Gonna have new nightmares now!
The look on Anton's face is about as cold blooded as it gets.
the dude laying in the bathroom is breathing and even blinking lololol
Hey everyone, I just realized, if you start watching from 1:15, the man in the bottom left corner who is supposed to be dead is actually blinking... It's a blooper.
Not a mistake. Intended realism.
He didn't die that long ago so he could still technically be 'alive' and twitching
That is one Sexy silent shotgun❤😂
One of the greatest films ever made
I never realized that the first shot in this scene blew the dude's arm half way off. Crazy in slow-mo
Glad they’re the only people at this motel or in that entire town lol
Seems Anton is lucky as well as good, the guy in shower could of easily killed him but apparently not up to the task, Moss being a veteran and a hunter should of set up Anton for an easy ambush. He needed to kill him to get away with the money and not have to worry.
Anton is operating on cosmic law, not tactics.
Not true, he was killed off screen by the cartel anyways when the sheriff found him.
He saw the shower guy in the bathroom mirror. The only chance the dude had was possibly grabbing the barrel of the gun when Anton pulled the shower curtain shut.
@@hecticgHe could’ve potentially avoided that confrontation had he not gotten into a fight with Anton.
@@NeoStoicismthat’s what a lot of people don’t seem to get about Anton, he’s not supposed to be a tactical killer but more a semi supernatural force who is on a different playing field entirely.
The beginning of this clip always freaks me out. Partially shot the first time and then finishes him off. Guy yells both times while others who got shot dont make a sound. The sound FXs and "silenced" shotgun is insane
Plot twist: the guys he just killed were actually just the landscaping crew the motel manager picked up from Home Depot earlier that day
Man, just because they’re Mexicans doesn’t mean they must be gardeners, they could be a Mariachi band from out of town, stop stereotyping 😢
who happened to have Uzi and pistols with them?
@nazmul_khan_ hey man stop stereotyping. They couldve been the oversized wheel and tire mechanics with speaker system mods.
@@DavidL1986 they adopted American culture upon climbing the wall to this side
@@nazmul_khan_ that is possible tbf
Okay I’m convinced the guys in the bathroom were investigating the squeaking sound.
Obra mestra del cine.Todos los actores sublimes.😎👍
El final es malísimo
They never stood a chance against Anton. He'd already done recon on the motel. He studied the blueprint, and even measured the thickness of the walls. Killers like him and Malvo from Fargo are second only to Hannibal Lecter who can kill with words.
If you guys liked this version of Anton, you should read the book!
Dude shooting that machine gun from the ground up😂
An "Underrated Bad Guy??" LOL...Are You Kidding? Shortly After The Release Of That Movie, Anton Chigurh Quickly Became One Of The Most Iconic Bad Guys In All Of Cinema History.
People are overusing the word "underrated".
Underrated is overrated
And one of the most cool, badass and intelligent ones to
That hair is iconic in itself.
That dude will shoot yo arse and be in Mehico by sunset!
The silenced shotgun is so badass he doesn’t even need to cock it after he shoots
Man, I'd love to see Bardem play Judge Holden
Yes , however it’s now generally acknowledged that Blood Meridian is unworkable a film. Too much , just a biblical descent into The Rings of Hell as Judge Holden as Virgil. It would just get so many people from so many angles angry etc even before you try to work out how to portray the violence because that’s what makes up most of the interaction in the novel . Sure, someone might give it a go but I’d be very wary of any modern adaptation of what is meant to be a period novel in its grammatical sense and just sheer body mutilation .
@@goodnightvienna8511 I dunno honestly, horror movies have a pretty large following and those can get naturally extremely graphic (even bordering on cartoonish levels of violence and gore in some cases), which obviously Blood Meridian is not, but I do think you could adapt it to film and keep the violence grounded just fine. The problem is that you couldn't really mince any of the scenes so you'd have to either split the movie up or just make it a TV series adaptation.
Something that's kinda floated around in my head for it, and it's more tongue in cheek in nature, is having an adaptation in the style of an mid 80's cartoon a-la GI Joe but keep all the dialogue and gore intact. I feel like that would be an amusing but very fitting take for the story in a strange way. Maybe I'm just kooky though.
@@eurekasevenwave2297 haha I’d definitely watch that 👏🏻
I love that silencers in shotgun didn't become a real thing until this movie came out and companies were forced to figure out a way to make it work XD
That suppressor sounds like it hurts
Not that the double O Buckshot is worse than regular so u can still blow off a limb with out using slugs
If you thought Anton was a psychopath, keep in mind he's got a barber, that made him that haircut.
Très bon acteur 👍
Macron is gay and his wife is a dude.
He fired five shots - exactly what a Remington 11-87 would hold. Nice detail.
I'm so disappointed with that suppressor's sound
I love the sound even though it's not realistic. Sounds unique
@@theplayeralsoknownasmousecopwhy is it not realistic?
@@HarrisonHollers it would be a hell of a lot louder than that
@@HarrisonHollers cant put a silencer on a shotgun, mate.......
@@bolivianbillionaire1349 Nah you can, Silencerco makes a couple specifcally for shotguns. I'd know, I have one on my Remington 1100 because of this movie lol.
Having read the book and listened to the audio book (highly recommended..!!) there are quite a few differences that are in the film but not in the book.. The dog that chases Moss in to the river, the accountant in the office who asks " Are you going to shoot me?" are just a couple of examples. Also when Moss rings Wells and Anton answers, in the book Moss says "i think i got the wrong number" but in the film he asks "is Carson there?" and Anton answers " Not in the sense you mean" Clearly the Coen Brothers have added a few nice touches but both book and film are on another level..i also love the part where Moss picks up the young girl hitch hiker, the dialogue between them is fantastic
Snakes turn against snakes
Anton was Lucky the Dude in the Shower didn't have a Gun because He def would've gotten the first Shot when Anton walked in the Bathroom LOL
I can't be the only person to wonder what were those two Mexicans doing in the bathroom at the same time when Anton entered the room. 🤔
They were hiding in there to ambush Moss
I love this detail: look at the unarmed guys pinky finger. He has a bump of cocaine in his nail ready to go. They were doing coke.
0:57 - I don’t know about you, but the moment he starts pulling that curtain across but I see the gun still pointed at me, I’m ducking down.
I never saw this movie…what is that sound that that suppressor makes? Is it from the future? Is this sci-fi?
I have no idea, but this movie is so cool you can easily give it some technical suspension of disbelief.
@@albertovalcarenghi350 Cheers thx, his character/the acting looks savage
If I remember correctly, he had an air bomb, I think he was shooting compressed air with some slugs
It's about compressed air.... seriously watch the movie.
@@albertovalcarenghi350 it's a compresed air....just like his nail gun .
Que mirada mas Fria y Implacable tiene Chigurh 😮😮
Of all the people Anton murders it seem ironic that his barber isn't among them.
Anton did kill his barber. Why do you think his hair looks like that?
1:02 You know he is not going to let you live. So why not fight for your life?
The feeling you get when you get wet socks indeed
