I watched this a couple of nights ago. Picked randomly. After a short while I almost turned it off. It was...is a crazy movie. But then I got that's exactly what it was supposed to be. I can't say I loved it, but the more it developed, the more I appreciated the weirdness of it. All the roles were very well acted. | ||

I really enjoyed it. Clooney carrying around that wedge! Beagle lives matter. ______ (\ / @\_____ / ( ) /O / ( )______/ ///_____/ | |||

It’s a Coen Bros movie. It helps to know that going in. I watch it about once a year or so, along with The Big Lebowski and O Brother, Where Art Thou? Brad Pitt is absolutely hilarious in this one. The scene with the closet makes me laugh myself sick every time. ______________________________________________ "If the truth shall kill them, let them die.” Endeavoring to master the subtle art of the grapefruit spoon. | |||

The Russians? Whaaaaaaaat theeeeeee ffuuuuuuuuuck! Favorite line of John Malkovich, in any movie, ever! When this comes on one of my movie stations I have to rewind at least 10 times and listen to him say it. What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone | |||

It's like 50%-75% of the Coen's movies, there's something there, and some of it brilliant, but over all it just missed, or something was missing. When they don't miss they're masterpieces. | |||

This is the movie where I first realized Brad Pitt could act. __________________________ "Trust, but verify." | |||

[spoiler alert] It is down the list of Coen Bros movies as for effectiveness and pacing but it has some elements that are hilarious. It has a lot in common with Raising Arizona and Fargo, and some with Lebowski, but does not quite deliver the goods like those films. There ain't much difference in the man I want to be and the man that I really am. | |||

It wasn't until the end of the movie that I saw that. Then it clicked more. | |||

This is one of my favorite Coen Bros films. Everyone in it is fantastic. The absurd intersecting storylines and the performances are perfect. I agree that it’s low key one of Pitt’s best roles. He steals every scene. _______________ If anyone has any factory P239 .357 SIG +1 mag extensions, I need (5) of them. Email in profile thx! | |||

Did not see the closet scene going that way lol. Had to fast forward a few times, but overall it has its moments. | |||
