It seems like the Coen brothers have some uncle up in the Oscar "distributing" jury who always comes up to them and says "Listen, we have a couple of Oscars lying around to give up in next week's ceremony so why don't the two of you make a movie & we'll give them to you"

Come to think of it Al Pacino didn't get an Oscar for his role in The Godfather, Morgan Freeman didn't get it for Shawshank Redemption, Robert De Niro for Taxi Driver, Jack Nicholson for A Few Good Men & Frances McDormand got on Oscar for this movie for saying "Yah" a zillion times(in a very irritating & intolerable way). I honestly don't get what all the hype is about.

Coming back to the topic, this movie very much like Coen Brother's other "masterpieces"** Burn After Reading & No Country For Old Men, is pointless, boring and extremely overrated. It is an average movie with a week story line, irritating acting with an annoying & excessive use of the word "Yah".

** I would like to make an appeal to other reviewers to stop calling every other movie a "masterpiece".

If you are about to watch this movie i would seriously suggest that you do yourself a big favor & for a change not go with what the majority views say & watch something else. And if you have already watched the movie well then "Yah" welcome to the club...

Peace !!!
