A masterpiece!

Rating: 10/10 (9 November 2014)

A teacher of mine highly recommended me the movie. So, I bothered to download it. It was a great watch! Very gripping and unpredictable. It's an action-thriller and I understand why the critics felt that it's one of Coen brother's best work. The story takes place in 1980 Texas. It starts with a man, who stumbles on a fresh, drug carter crime scene. He finds a bag containing 2 million dollars and he decides to take it. A decision he surely regrets at a certain point. The rightful owners of the money starts coming after him and his family. And they aren't playing fair. I loved the mysterious Antagonist and his methods of assassinations. The ending was abrupt, however, I enjoy abrupt endings. The characters were quite well rounded and everything pretty much went hand in hand.
