A modern day "Heaven's Gate"

Rating: 1/10 (24 November 2007)

Those "critics" who have put the Cohens on a pedestal for so long should now kick it out from under them. This movie may be of interest to those who aren't old enough to remember movies such as "Heaven's Gate" or "Tess". These are movies that spend rolls of film on nonsensical dialog that has nothing to do with the plot or anything else in the universe. Even the near cameo of Woody Harrelson, who delivers a few lines of dialog as if reading it from a teleprompter, leaves you wondering why he even bothered to appear. If you get your kicks from sudden loud unexpected noises, maybe this film is for you. However don't waste your time following the vague plot or trying find a veiled meaning. There is only one line in this film you need to pay any attention to: "It just doesn't matter". Before you buy a ticket, do yourself a favor, find a spoiler review and read it!
