    Hey everyone! I managed to edit this video before my surgery, so might as well release it now. As mentioned in my update posts, there probably won't be any videos in January while I'm recovering, so don't expect anything else after this. Hope you all enjoy my reaction to this film! Don't know what movie I'll do next though...

      Hi @mattrgl. I wrote a comment a few hours ago but it's not here anymore. Did I say anything wrong, or does it have something to do with moderation? Sorry if I did anyyhing wrong, it was not my intention. Hope you be well and back soon.

      @@pedroneto4397 I'm not sure myself. There wasn't any notifications so the comment probably got auto-deleted by RUclips. Usually it's because there's a link in the comment, RUclips counts that as spam, so if there was that's probably why.

      @@mattragel Yes, I didn't know that. It was a small comment about the car crash at the end of the movie, and an invitation for you to read my take on Anton Chigurh in a post I wrote at my personal blog. I argue that he is a deterministic force who creates opportunities for indeterminism in a causal universe. If you want to read it, tell me and I'll try to send the link somehow.

    An interesting fact about the movie is that the original author of the book Cormac Maccarthy (RIP legend) wrote the story as a screenplay in the 80s and later in 2000s wrote the novel version which then was adapted to film by the Coen brothers. That's why the story works so well as a movie (not undermining the beautiful work of Coens and the rest of the crew). I highly recommend to check out other stories written by Maccarthy. Great reaction/discussion btw!

    I don't know why, but the gas station scene has always stuck with me. Definitely one of my favourite scenes in any film.

      @mattragel  6 месяцев назад +4

      To me, that's when Anton was truly introduced. Knowing what he did to other characters prior, only for him to not kill the dude by showing that he "has his own rules" was great subversion and character building.

    What an incredible film. No OST, just pure tension, phenomenal acting, and directing. Recently a group of psychologists stated that they believe Anton is the most realistic depiction of a sociopath put to film.

    The perfect "horror"-movie for the October-movie-reaction... Wait what?
    I've anticipated this reaction so much. The cosmic-irony and the fate of events are one of the core essences of the Coen brothers. It's also always so fun to watch when the story turns out to have such unexpected events and jarring abstract ideas, although I sometimes think that it also can be a disadvantage. The end of the movie left me somewhat 'negatively' perplexed when I watched this film years prior; but it was fun to hear your thoughts and opinions of the film.
    I hope that you will react to Fargo some time in the far future: The movie from the Coens and the series by Noah Hawley, which captures the spirit of the Coens.

    Absolutely great reaction. A well paced and reasoned response to the movie. A couple of more viewings would definitely allow you to pick up on additional content in both dialogue and action.

    Great recognition and appreciation for this!!! Highly recommend "Hell or High Water" for another great Texas crime story with Jeff Bridges as a west Texas sheriff!!!

    This is one of the few movies I've actually lost sleep over. I just couldn't stop thinking about it, and the more I came to understand what it was saying the more fascinating it was to me. I love talking about No Country for Old Men. It's a brilliant story. I've read most of Cormac McCarthy's books and if you ask me most days he's my favorite author - and this is coming from someone who reads Tolstoy and Faulkner.

    Great reaction. I think the story impacted you in a way that you should use it as you introduction to Cormac McCarthy’s writing.

    Great reaction and discussion of a great movie. Honestly, it has been a very pleasant unexpected surprise. I hope you get well very soon.
    PS: In 14:23 you mention that you have seen that shot. If you've seen the opening of Chainsaw Man, you've seen it when it shows the Violence Fiend.

      @@mattragel Ok. By the way, are you going to react to the OST from AOT's The Final Season Part 3, like you did with the OST from Part 2?
      The one in Part 3 is much shorter (5 tracks), but one of the tracks (which only plays at a crucial moment in the first special) seems to have been modified a bit to fit it into the special, unlike the original track that appears on the album (Which I think will surprise you when you hear it).
