Subtle & outside of the box approach reminiscent of Fargo

Rating: 9/10 (27 May 2019)

Acting was spectacular from McDormand and all around cast as well. Woody Harrelson stood out to me the most from the supporting cast. Direction was very nicely done. Writing is subtle & not action packed as you may expect from a crime/drama genre, but it's very well written. Subtlety is a nice touch if done properly (reminiscent of movies like No country for old men and Fargo). It is the small details, underlying messages and nuances that go beyond what you see on the big screen. It's a deep movie driven by ideas.
In my view, it is not a must-watch movie by any means, but I think it's well worth watching once. The storytelling aspect is pretty close to amazing. Just don't expect a lot of fast-paced action, bullets flying or a breakdown of the murder itself (I can't say more without spoiling the movie). Ending is different than what you expect going in and even halfway mark, but I thought it was a nice touch. It is not so predictable as Hollywood movies tend to be as you will see only if you watch it!
I rate it 8.5/10, which I round up to 9. Check it out!
