It makes you think at the end.

Rating: 10/10 (14 May 2008)

One of the things that I like about the Coen Brothers is their masterful writing ability. This certainly is no exception. The ending really makes you think. I won't give it away of course, but you won't be able to get it out of your mind. Furthermore, this is also, I think, their most violent movie ever. I've never seen anything like this that they've done. Sure, they've had more violent scenes from the past, such as the wood-chipping scene from "Fargo," and some of the violent scenes from (ugh) "The Ladykillers," and the throat-slitting scene from "The Man Who Wasn't There," but there are tons more violent scenes in this.
This movie is also very intense. You can't relax in any scene of this movie without wondering if Javier Bardem is going to kill someone or not, which he does a masterful job of keeping the intensity and the non-redeeming qualities of the character alive. You can even see it in the eyes, which is very hard to do.
So, if you like movies like this, where the violence is non-stop and the ending won't leave you, then this is your type of movie.
