I really miss Fargo after this...

Rating: 3/10 (26 November 2007)

For me, this was the biggest disappointment of the year. I just set my expectation level too high. I guess I was looking forward to some Fargo-type humor mixed in with the gratuitous violence. I guess it's not fair to compare this to Fargo, because that movie did raise the bar. This one lowered it back down again. The plot was decent enough and certainly there was enough killing and blood to go around. Film is not funny, not gut-wrenching and way to slow. Word of mouth may kill, pardon the pun, box office sales as about 90% of the audience I was part of had only negative comments. And the ending speaks for itself (which means it says nothing). Sorry Coen Bros.
