Did I watch the same film as everyone else?

Rating: 3/10 (3 June 2008)

After checking out the rating on here and seeing an impressive 8.3/10 I thought I would settle down to a evening of IMDb recommended entertainment. After a semi promising start I endured a further 90 minutes of anticipation.. no make that expectation mixed with mind numbed disappointment. Surely it had to go somewhere, ah, right we're off.. no wait someone just killed him off?, who she, who are they, are they coming back? What a complete waste of 2 hours! The rental shop must have slipped the wrong movie in the box, right? I watched one where a psycho, mop haired Mexican had an interesting auto shotgun with a silencer (new one on me) lots of blood and not a lot else really!
Judging by all the votes from sub 18's to over 50 year olds I thought this is bound to be one heck of a film, especially as the Coen's were involved.. Oh boy was i wrong. Worst thing I kept saying to myself 8.3/10, it must get better or at least have a plst soon?
