Coens done it again

Rating: 9/10 (15 February 2008)

Wow just saw it really good film ill separate it into categories
Story: Simple story man takes money not belonging to him sets off a chain reaction of violence from a crazy yet calm man who wants at nothing but to get the money. 9/10
Script: Witty dialog with comedic lines that are clearly a coen brothers film. Resembles some big lebowski moments which includes a milk scene lol. Not focused to much on dialog but telling a scene using the actions of the characters. End sequence was interesting yet could have been better maybe i was distracted by someone on the phone. Themes used from other coen films Barton Fink: Hallway scenes and some person to person scenes/ interior of houses including wallpaper scenes. Big Lebowski: Normal man in bad situation, Milk lol Fargo: Long shots of scenic Texas similar to styles used in Fargo/ Cop dialogue resembles Fargo 8.5/10
Cinematography: Simple yet elegant lighting used in the film similar to Barton fink especially the hallway scenes. Excellent landscape shots which really blew me away. Favorite scenes were nightime shots. 10/10
Acting: A class by all except for Tommy lee jones seriously that guy is becoming type-casted in all his films lol. Best performance is by josh Brolin in my eyes. 9.5/10
Production Design: Similar to Barton Fink for the interior scenes
Overall a good 8.5 out of 10
