Don't go by the hype..

Rating: 1/10 (29 January 2008)

As the credits rolled on the screen, the audience sat in disbelief. Everyone was wondering what was the point of sitting for 2 hours in the cinema hall if all the questions that have been put up would remain unanswered. The movie begins on a good note, holds it tensions, suddenly it veers off its track and unexpectedly ends. You stress your brains to find if you had missed something which others didn't. But there is nothing. Things are as they are and you are condemned to be dissatisfied no matter how many questions you ask, how many reviews you read or how many times you watch the movie over and over.
I have seen Coen brother's work previously and liked it too. Blood Simple was an exceptional movie and so was Fargo. But I am sorry to say that this movie is not in the same league and not even close.
The cinematography is brilliant and landscapes have been beautifully captured. The actors do a fine job. But what is missing then??.. A story with so many loose ends. It is just not worth the hype.. So please spare yourself the agony and give it a skip.
