Oh yeeeaaaah, real good!

Rating: Null/10 (1 April 2000)

If it weren't for the ending, this movie would be perfect. The problem is that it didn't say what happened to the characters before the final credits. Perhaps that's excusable because the film wasn't really based on a true story, but you might feel "left out dry" if you don't like cliffhanger endings.
On the contrary, this film was still very good. All the performances were excellent, and the story keeps you interested all the way through. In other movies there will be parts that are slightly dull, but this is riveting from start to finish. What especially made it good is that you'll find a new thing everytime you watch it, much like The Usual Suspects. This had all the qualifications needed for the Best Picture Oscar and it's unfair that it didn't receive it.
While it has less humor than earlier Coen Brother's movies, it still stands out as one of their best films, and maybe the best film of the decade.
