[@isaiahquidilla3153]

I freaking love "No Country for Old Men". My favorite scene was the one in the gas station where Chigurh does that coin toss thing of his.

[@WhiteCheddar.]

One of best movies ever made

[@randomguyoudontknow]

The Man Who Wasn't There is one of the most criminally underrated films of all time. If you haven't seen it, do it.

[@mikekock927]

RGYDK I totally agree, amazing performance from Billy bob.

[@gritter2112]

It's in my top ten Coen films but probably around 7.

[@jakeryan9469]

Agreed. Burn After Reading was also really good. J.K. Simmons part was small but made the film.

[@hvitekristesdod]

It’s definitely one of my top Coens films

[@karlhinze]

"He didn't say that". Brilliant line.

[@troddy3925]

I just know that Miller's Crossing was, and still is, an underrated Coen Brother classic. The playful dialog used, the acting, cinematography and a story that demands second and third viewings to understand its true greatness? Not to mention the score that forever has been embedded in my brain like that 'hat in the wind.' Great, great film about survival and conscience, set in a Dashiell Hammett story, with Raymond Chandler language and Coen Bros humor. If you haven't seen this movie, watch it. If you have, watch it again if you felt you missed something, because you probably did. In doing so, the realization of its greatness for all the above reasons will continue to become evident in the process.

[@Manic-Pixie-Dream-Ghoul]

I personally love O Brother, Where Art Thou? It's one of my favorite movies

[@comedeyzone]

Well it was number 5. I was actually surprised too. It's probably their most underrated film along with a serious man.

[@foogledoo32]

It's one of my least favorite by them. I found it verrrry boring.

[@MikeSmith74653]

Justin McDonald At least the soundtrack album won a Grammy for Album of the year!!!

[@jonathanbuchanan6961]

[@dolfan1318]

I just watched 'The Ballad of Buster Scruggs' on Netflix last night. Brand new Coen Bros. Loved it!

[@nightonthetiles6923]

Rick Marvil thought it got pretty boring pretty soon after an interesting start..not one of thier best for me..

[@bodariousbruh4549]

One of their worst but still worth watching once.

[@davidcharles7106]

I liked it, especially the first two stories. That pan dude.....he don't fight fair.

[@HyperionFive]

One of the worst?! Are you on drugs? The only mistake they made is dealing with fucking Netflix and not realising it in cinemas. This film would have been in the top 3 easily and won a lot of awards. It's such an original, fresh and beautiful crafted film. You sure fans of Coen brothers? You seem like haters. The acting, the writing, the locations, everything it's fucking perfect.

[@seldomseensavage3459]

Dan Alexandru damn right Dan! Probably too spoiled to appreciate. I have loved Scorsese & a lot of others through my 68 years, but the Coen Bros. rule

[@keithmckay8620]

jmo, but The Big Lebowski is always gonna be my favorite. The Dude abides

[@keithmckay8620]

let's see what happens after I watch Hail, Ceasar

[@terryabbott9747]

That's just like, your opinion man.

[@davidanon2742]

This.

[@mator2339]

@Scotty St Cloud I agree Hail Caesar is absolutely their worst film till date(yes, worser than Ladykillers and Burn After Reading). That film looks like a badly made parody of all Coen Brothers films including additional parody of 50s Hollywood. The Coens are literally comparable to Stanley Kubrick in terms of greatness but fall short because of works like Hail Caesar, Ladykillers and Burn After Reading which are all good or maybe above average films for other directors but for them. Also their ignoring science fiction films while Kubrick made the best science fiction movie of all time.

[@mator2339]

@@hibbidyjibbidyy you could start with Inside Llewyn Davis, thats their most definitive work I have ever seen then go on to A Serious Man. After that go towards the westerns i.e. True Grit(remake but its better than the original, jmo), then No Country For Old Men( a western but a subvert), The Ballad of Buster Scruggs(totally a cinematographic masterpiece). Then probably their comedies like The Big Lebowski, etc. Miller's Crossing, Hudsucker Proxy are brilliant. And Barton Fink is again a masterpiece.

[@solidzdar467]

Lebowski is #1 for me

[@ShinbrigTV]

My Favorite film from the Coen Brother's is for sure "No Country for Old Men" just because of Javier Bardem's performance.

[@Vaisin]

Agreed! One of the best movies ever made

[@docholladay13]

IDK, it may be in Brolin's top 3 as well.

[@michaelhassler7446]

I agree totally, as much as I liked The Big Lebowski, it's a comedy...they do comedy so well, but it doesn't leave the emotional impression of the intense thrillers they crank out. True Grit doesn't belong anywhere on the list though, it's a Coen stinker, which actually is a better movie than most people put out.

[@flavio7180]

Michael Hassler True Grit is fantastic imo

[@shaubooker1037]

ShinbrigTV they definitely had the top 3 in the right order. SHOCKED that Raising Arizona is so low.

[@333ministries]

[@MrHyde80]

I like to think of "No country for old men" as a sequel to "fargo", where the authors grew old enough to realize that the good has become too old and slow to catch up with evil

[@MeesTW]

Personally I think Inside Llewyn Davis should be higher on the list.

[@nedd.8479]

How the hell is Raising Arizona only tenth place?

[@bluegenes2273]

I love that goddamn movie so much. Relatedly, i only really appreciated how frequently my mom and i carry on whole conversations using movie quotes and references when, totally out of nowhere, she had a serious stroke. While she was in the ICU, we didn't know if she was going to have severe cognitive impairment or what. And, naturally, she was as soupy as you'd expect; "...maybe it was utah" became her kind of shorthand for acknowledging the days blurring together, and general confusion and delay that comes with losing a chunk of time. Haha, paradoxically enough, her penchant for incorporating good quotes into daily life had half of the hospital staff convinced that she was utterly off her fucking rocker.

[@shotbro4998]

Ned D. Of the 5 Coen films I’ve seen, (4 of them being on the list), I’m surprised to c that my ranking is actually in reverse?

Haven't seen many of these but No Country at #1 is great. One of my favorites of all time.

[@SilentTree12]

I still prefer Fargo over No Country (but only slightly). The amount of subtle and absurd humor meticulously placed in Fargo gave the film some energy and charm.

[@dank1j]

SilentTree Fargo is better in a lot of ways. I only saw no country on the big screen, so a second viewing will be required. I have Fargo on VHS from when it first came out and have been able to pick up and watch it again at any point I see it on TV.

[@kathycaldwell7126]

Fargo is amazing. I’d rank Fargo #2, just a notch behind “No Country”-which is damn near flawless

[@johannaward889]

If you haven't seen it yet, their newest Netflix original, The Ballad of Buster Scruggs, is the best film I've seen in a while. Visually beautiful and intriguing, a very unique style even among other Coen brothers films, and yet still reminiscent of some of their common themes. If you are a fan, it's definitely worth the watch.

[@ang4lyf]

Though 'Fargo' and 'No country for old men' are absolutely brilliant films, i personally think 'TRUE GRIT' is the coen brothers greatest film. People most often do not give it the recognition it deserves. To remake a classic and absolutely nail everything that made the first great is a hard task and when i watched the coens version i was amazed to see how good it actually was and i take my hat off to them for doing such a thing. My Opinion: True Grit (1969) - Focused and driven solely by John Wayne True Grit (2010) - Gave importance to all characters involved Hailee steinfeld was absolutely brilliant as Mattie Ross and deserved the oscar nod, Jeff bridges did his version of cogburn and came out in flying colors, Matt Damon played his part well. Great soundtrack and One of the best introductions to a movie's story. BRILLIANT! I did not compare the film with the earlier version like others normally do. This film by the coens on its own is a masterpiece and is currently my favorite movie of all time.

[@tarnim80]

Glad to see that Inside Llewyn Davis made it to the list. I LOVED that one and it's among my top-10 favourite movies of all time.

[@15Candles]

The Ladykillers 5. Oh Brother, Where Art Thou? 4. No Country for Old Men 3. Raising Arizona 2. Big Lebowski 1. Fargo The top 2-3 could fall on my top 100 movies all time

[@TubawithLegs]

[@ChubbyChecker182]

Miller's Crossing is my number one, great movie, fantastic script and cinemtagrophy, and Gabriel Byrne is soooo cool. It came out the same year as Goodfellas, and Godfather 3, a great year for gangster movies

[@captainmarvelwilson508]

Goodfellas is a masterpiece and Millers Crossing is also great, but Godfather 3 was a big downgrade from the first two. It is not bad, but it doesn't come close to the best gangster movies.

The thing about The Ladykillers which is so blithely ignored when people hate on it, is the absolutely brilliant soundtrack which juxtaposes classic baptist music with dark rap and hip hop. It's easily one of their top 5 soundtracks, and makes for a really fun and fascinating composition.

[@izzadrinkin]

The fact that so many different titles are named number one or top 3 or even top 5 buy fans that have watched their work, cements them as the top directors in the world today.

Fargo and No Country are two of my favorite movies. Fargos got a bit more plot, wit, and substance. But No Country has got a much darker tone, which was done with perfect cinematography. Javier Bardem is damn near perfect as Chigurh. Tommy Lee Jones also gives a great performance. If I had to pick id say No Country.

[@TheRedWaltz24]

They can do both comedy and drama... whereas guys like Tarantino can only do dark comedy and Nolan only drama. They are a very diverse director/writer combo.

[@michaelwilson4972]

+TheRedWaltz24 agreed. definitely the most versatile and genre bending filmmakers of the industry. only other name that comes to mind is Paul Thomas Anderson

1. O Brother, Where Art Thou? 2. The Big Lebowski 3. Fargo 4. Barton Fink 5. Raising Arizona 6. No Country for Old Men 7. A Serious Man 8. True Grit 9. Burn After Reading 10. Inside Llewyn Davis Haven't seen Blood Simple or Miller's Crossing yet so may have to make some revisions to this, but here's what I've got so far.

[@John-wu2mn]

True Grit - an amazing movie...

[@roloug95]

Fargo should have taken the top spot. That film is honestly one of the finest ever made.

[@JohnHondo11997]

+roloug95 Completely agree. Top 5 of all time for me.

[@brucewayne3927]

Expect that number 1 is even better

[@albiehardwick6340]

+roloug95 The top 2 were both great but for me Fargo was better.

[@jonasg6257]

You betcha!

[@mateil2277]

Yes,I think Fargo and Big Lebowski represent the whole Coen Brothers body of work way more than No Country.

[@JohnHondo11997]

+Rise of the sugars Fargo Number 1 for sure.

[@yudhveer99]

am I the only one around here who didn't like no country for old men

[@Bassguitarist712]

+Rise of the sugars Big Lebowski should be over True Grit. As far as cult films go, you can't do any better.

[@ayitijones811]

+Yuvi Singh i fkn hated it

[@RedRabbleRouser]

+Rise of the sugars Everyone sleeps on Inside Llewyn Davis! Damn... Its in their top 3 for me.

[@ElroyMcDuff]

The Hudsucker Proxy is my fav so far, though I haven't seen a few of these. The music, the art direction, the casting, everything is spot on.

[@ellnats]

i actually saw raising arazona when i was in high school, literally my drama class showed it once (well twice we couldn't show it all in one class)

[@mateuscarvalho3870]

I remember when I first saw "No Country". I was 14, and I came out of the movie saying it was one of the worst movies I've ever seen, mostly because I didn't understand the ending. Today, it's one of my favorite films. My top 10: 1 - No Country for Old Men 2 - True Grit 3 - The Man Who Wasn't There 4 - Fargo 5 - Big Lebowski 6 - Blood Simple 7 - A Serious Man 8 - Barton Fink 9 - Inside Llewyn Davis 10 - Burn After Reading

[@ckotcher1]

is that Llewyn Davis as your profile pic?

[@mateuscarvalho3870]

Cari Kotcher Yup.

[@ckotcher1]

Mateus Murozaki nice

[@LegendsLiterature]

No Country is a movie that requires multiple viewings. That ending is polarizing to a first-time viewer. I was dissatisfied and underwhelmed the first time. Now I get chills whenever “then I woke up” pops up in my mind.

[@sparnman]

The Dude abides at #1

[@hiway237]

I have no problem with this list. It's hard for me to sort out the top 3 though. They are all in my favorite 25 movies of all time.

[@scottbrixey6284]

I brother where art thou is one of my favorite movies of all time. It would fit on my top 10 films of all time

[@Moreththerogue]

Dishonorable Mention The Ladykillers? I loved that movie. Tom Hanks was brilliant!
