I love the Coen Brothers and most of the actors in this film but could not get into it. The main characters are so stupid or just plain ugly (on the inside - which is usually not a problem for me) that I did not enjoy this comedy. If there was a redeeming point to it all it would have been better. It is so lighthearted and frivolous (sp) that there was nothing to keep me from thinking about how much better it could have been, I did not see the humor and there certainly was no suspense. The final scene when someone sums up everything that happened in the movie is funny but way too late.
Bottom line is the movie is well made and goes by quick enough but I recommend you pass it up.
thanks
Phil
