How can you NOT see this film

Rating: 10/10 (18 February 2008)

Well first of all I was not expecting anything. Why? because you just know that you cant "expect" anything from a Coen Brothers film you have to experience it.
So what can I say about the movie without spoilers, because you cant just say them really you would in this case ruin the film.
Lets start at the beginning I went to a screening of this movie. I read the title and thought "hmm not a really zippy flashy title" it doesn't really say anything about the film _before_ you watch it. But I think that was what they headed for ... I always had this little thing in my head telling me to watch out for that perfect moment when the title just hits the spot in the movie. And my god it did hit it. I watched it not just looked at it or was there and well just looked at a screen ... no the movie captivates. The Actors just fab! Its like your there as a silent watcher in the film not just sitting there. You feel the characters as people and not "actors" going through the ( sometimes painful ) stages of acting out a character.
It is one of the best movies I have seen in ages that has been made in the last few years. Not great classics or good old ... no its new fresh and coen!
When you get round to actually thinking again after the movie you notice that is the perfect combination of great acting great story and that little fizz you just haven't had in the movies for a long time.
The characters pull you in they are simple and complex at the same time they are what they are and you accept them to the full. You might not agree with them or think why did he do this ? But then you see it you understand it and get the picture. No big whys and whats and where. No HUGE plot hole that makes you shake your head.
So if you want a film that captivates and makes you experience theater and movies like you did the very first time ... then this is it.
I really loved it and im waiting for the DVD :)
