    OK, I haven't seen this but have heard great things. Any mini reviews from the fine folks at zp?


    P.S. The "About This Video" description made me giggle a little.

    It's a pretty good movie. Make sure to get the BALD release. Excellent quality.

    Release?



    Dunno 'bout that. This one looks good enough to dump 8 bucks on admission, and 5 bucks on some shitty nachos.


    That's entertainment!

    Can't forget about the 5 buck popcorn either! Or the $3 bag of Skittles.

    I saw this at our local MJR multiplex, the bigscreen and sound was worth it. Dunno if this is chainwide but they give free refills on pop and popcorn. This particular one even gave us some small bags and cups when I asked and we divvied and refilled right there at the counter.

    Almost made up for having to watch the commercials before the film.

    I liked it as much as I liked Fargo when it came out

    You have to see this in theatres. It really does add to the experience of seeing this movie, and the film is simply exceptional. I loved every moment of it. NOthing like a slience shot gun.

    I'll cast my opinion in an honest light. Yes, it had great characters and memorable dialog but that's the end of my appreciation.

    I think it panned out like a big bag of shit. Don't patronize me with the pretentious suggestion that I just don't get the Coen Brothers. That ending sucked a thousand miles of cock. Give me closure in your movie or warn me ahead of time so I don't waste two hours of my life that could have been spent reading or looking for porn.

    I think its over hyped myself and Im a HUGE Coen fan, HUGE!


    Good movie but come on, DAMN! You know what I mean if youve seen it. It goes to the bottom of my Coen films list.

    I thought is was dark and realistic.. in a kinda bizarre way. If you want a happy ending go watch Shrek...

    I didn't want happy che, I wanted closure.

    At least one more character should have died. It really could have been either one.
