When introduced in the narrative, I had high hopes for Harrelson's character. What a disappointment. Little talk and even less substance.

I know it can be argued that Harrelson's character was indeed a badass, but that Bardem was badass to the "nth degree," etc. But Bardem just walked up behind Harrelson, took him to the room, and killed him without so much of a whimper.

Harrelson had a reputation and was able to track down Brolin. You figure he had to have some street smarts. But he didn't demonstrate any in his dealings with Bardem. A clueless idiot . . all mouth. I know, I know, that's the way his character was written.
