More critics included No Country for Old Men on their 2007 top ten lists than any other film,[10] and many regard it as the Coen brothers' best film.[11][12][13][14] As of February 2018, various sources had recognized it as one of the best films of its decade and still one of the best films of the 2000s.[15][16][17][18] The Guardian's John Patterson wrote: "the Coens' technical abilities, and their feel for a landscape-based Western classicism reminiscent of Anthony Mann and Sam Peckinpah, are matched by few living directors",[19] and Peter Travers of Rolling Stone said that it is "a new career peak for the Coen brothers" and "as entertaining as hell".[20] In 2016, it was voted the 10th best film of the 21st century as picked by 177 film critics from around the world.[21]
