I don't understand how everyone found each other so easily once the transponder was gone. And I was disappointed at what a minor role Woody Harrelson ended up playing, considering all his big talk.
No different than Fassbender in Inglorious Bastards.

Sugar gave lleywelen (sp?) a chance to give it back and his wife would be left alone.
Mexicans,sugar, and lleywelen all got into shootout. Sugar kills wife

Not Sugar, Chigurh. And he didn't kill her, the coin did.

Not in the movie. She didn't call it in the movie. Remember? She refused.
And the coin didn't kill her in the book, either. She called it, but Chigurh killed her in the book, too.

I don't remember exactly how it went down, I just remember being very disappointed in that scene in the movie. I remember them straying from the book pretty big and feeling robbed, because I loved the book scene so much.
Maybe I should rewatch/reread it before trying to contribute in a thread about it and looking like an a-hole.

In the book, it's a hawk, i believe.
Yes, it is. It makes for an interesting contrast with a scene earlier in the book. Sheriff Bell finds the body of a red-tailed hawk in the road and stops to move it to a grassy patch on the side. Even though the hawk is a predator it's not an evil one and Bell showed respect for it. Chigurh comes across a hawk and sees a predator and dislikes it for operating in his terrain. Or because it's a predator and yet not evil. In any case he misses it. Probably because the hawk hasn't done anything to deserve it. Pretty much everybody that Chigurh kills as brought it on themselves in some way. Carla Jean is the interesting one. Maybe you could argue that she did. Or maybe she was not supposed to be fair game for Chigurh and he was hit by the car almost immediately afterwards for overstepping his limits.
Or maybe it's just a random hawk.
Cormac McCarthy put some serious undertones in the book, I've listened to it at least 10 times on driving trips and am still not tired of it.

You'll look like an a-hole regardless

He misses the bird, correct?
Yes, sounds like he hits the bridge and the bird flies away.

The simple answer is the movie is overrated as hell. Great performance by Bardem but there's nothing great about the movie itself. It rode the coattails of There Will Be Blood in the "dusty and gritty" genre

watching for the first time now. WTF go back there? guilty conscious?
never got that ... anyone who stumbles on that money/scene knows it's a dangerous situation and isn't gonna go back ...

I always thought he was just fricking with the hawk, never intending to actually hit it.

I thought it was out of character, TBH. Chigurh was a stone cold killer, but he always killed for a reason. That was just random.

It's great when somebody replies to an opinion with an emoji or emoticon or whatever.

Since you don't like emoticon responses...
The simple answer is this movie is great. Sucks for you that you didn't like it.
