Roger Ebert and Gene Siskel both called this the best movie of 1996. I think it's the best LIVE ACTION one. But they did say something I agree with: "This is why I love the movies!" Right on! This is one of the best movies I have ever seen! The movie has strong profanity(mostly from Steve Bucuesmi) but it is very good!

If you are a Veggie Tales fan Phil Vischer named this one of his favorite movies. This was nominated for Best Picture but lost to The English Patient-that's a good movie but Fargo is WAY better.

Now, what makes it work so well? The dialogue is natural, the way everyone talks. it's funny at times as well.

The plot is unique ,also. How many other movies are about a man who plot's his wife's murder to have her money to pay off a debt?

This is a great adventure to witness-and it is only 98 minutes long!
