In the previous scene Tommy Lee says chigur is more like a ghost the way he keeps disappearing right before he is caught or stumbled onto each time.

I don't want to throw out some cheesy idea that Chigur is a ghost or demon or just has supernatural luck or wtf ever but I think symbolically... that's more or less why Chigur wasn't caught in that scene, because he is like Tommy Lee said, like a ghost. Infer what you want from what I said, watch those 2 scenes again yourself and see what you think but I don't think it was the author's intent for Chigur to be caught (duh yeah) but for him to be represented more as a ghost that can't be dealt with, or as a representation of the evil that can not be dealth with as a whole because it is elusive. That's my take anyway.

One interpretation I heard was that Chigur is in the room next door. There are, afterall, two doors surrounded by police tape.

I still lean towards thinking he was never in the room to begin with, that the reflections and such were more like Tommy Lee's imagination getting away from him.

Finally saw this; pretty awesome all around.

My one question though: does a shotgun silencer like that really exist? If so, where can I get one? ^^

Was I the only one who thought this movie had some great action bracketed by horrendously boring and slow scenes? I was a little tired when I watched it but I literally fell asleep during some of the tommy lee jones scenes.

Really? Man, I could listen to him muse in Texan drawl for hours.

Good movie. Kind of fell asleep though (was running a 2 hours sleep) so I was probably not able to appreciate the movie as much as I should have. It was not as gorey as many people made it out to seem. Maybe that's just me.
