Battle of Best Picture winners. This one isn't close. No Country even has a better villain.
on 9/19/2009
No Country wins by a smidge due to the Chigur character and Boland's performance.

NO COUNTRY is an art movie dressed up like a pulpy thriller. LAMBS is a pulpy thriller dressed up like an art movie.

Go Silence Of The Lambs!! For me there's no question on this one.
on 11/24/2009
Hannibal Lecter vs. Anton Chigurh. Wow. What a choice.
on 12/5/2009
no country is a far more subtle gross out murder fest

1991 Best Pic vs 2007 Best Pic.. Two of my all-time favorite villains.. Hmm.

2 great films - there's no loser here. But in terms of groundbreaking and cultural impact, I think it's clear Silence matters slightly more.
Tough choice but No Country for Old Men is an original toughie.
on 9/24/2010
I hands down loved No Country for Old Men. (same thing for Silence of the Lambs)
on 1/4/2011
Both are fantastic, but I felt Silence of the Lambs was a more complete movie experience.

Yikes. Hurts a bit, but going with No Country for Old Men.
Silence of the Lambs because I have seen it many times, yet whenever I see it on tv i have to watch it, while never getting sick of it.

Going for No Country For Old Men on this one.
on 3/8/2012
Silence.

SILENCE OF THE LAMBS!! IT WON ALL MAJOR ACADEMY AWARDS!
on 7/17/2012
No Country by a huge margin.
both are super intense and awesome . Acting wise: Silence of the Lambs. Story wise: No Country. Rewacthable: No Country.

Silence feels disposable somehow. It's really competent on a lot of levels, but somehow you just don't care about it after it's over. Overrated or not, No Country is one of the few modern American films that will be remembered down the line.
Silence...I just can't pick against it....

Switching over to No COuntry for the time being.
Silence of the Lambs is an excellent thriller, but No Country for Old Men is tighter, more slick and better directed.
No Country over No Sound.
Silence of the Lambs by far.
on 1/10/2013
Silence of the Lambs for sure. I hate to admit it, but I just don't get off on the Coen Brothers, and NCFOM is a prime example of why.
on 5/15/2013
Silence of the lambs wins this pretty easily. And no country is still a great film
No Country is amazing, but Silence is even more so.
on 4/26/2014
NCFOM

Silence of the Lambs
I haven't seen either of these films in a while, but looking back, I'd probably say NCFOM.

Great pairing but Silence is the better film in my opinion
on 10/6/2014
Actually I just rewatched No Country and I think it wins this one
on 2/24/2016
I loved both pretty equally, but I guess I'm just more into No Country.
Btw, Javier Bardem look a lot like Buffalo Bill.
on 2/25/2016
Two creepy freaking thrillers. Lambs takes it for me, but I sure do love No Country as well.
on 3/18/2016
No Country for Old Men is the clear winner for me. No two ways about it.
on 3/20/2016
No Country by a small margin. Chigur is the greatest villain of all time imo.
on 2/14/2021
Despite how incredible Silence of the Lambs is, I have to give to No Country for Old Men. It's simply the better paced, tighter, and engaging film. Although Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter is memorable, I believe Javier Bardem as Anton Chigurh is a better and more terrifying villain. No Country wins.
on 2/15/2021
'Hannibal Lecter' is the smartest and more fascinating villain. Silence of the Lambs in the field of Horror/thriller rocks for eternity!
on 7/10/2022
No Country by a wide margin, Silence is one of the most overrated movies ever.
on 7/21/2022
Both are fantastic movies. I think Anton Chigurh is a slightly better-written villain, even though I think Hopkins had a better performance. The dialogue is imacculately written, plot is well-paced, thematically rich, and extremely gripping in both movies. I think I would give a slight edge to No Country, however. Just a slight one.

Dr. Lecter eats Chigurh's liver with some fava beans
