It's a well put together story. But just by no means overly captivating. It is coined as a crime story which it is and a dark Comedy which I struggled with as it was more like a recounting of a story by some country bumpkins and I never found it to be even remotely funny. For me it was just a series of unfortunate events perpetrated by a number of bizarre criminals of whom I had no real affinity with. Marge was also an obviously capable police officer. And I suppose it was an attempt at comedy to have her being the main investigator. I reckon that the whole mundanity of the scenario and setting in a rural community is why people revere the Movie. For me it was just a fun little story with a moral theme. Be careful what you wish for . 6.5.
