Good stuff. Definitely not for everyone, but I really enjoyed it. Most people probably won't like the ending. Anyone else seen it?

I really want to see this one, but doubt I'll have time while it's still in theaters.

I finally saw this one a couple weeks ago. A buddy and I were talkin about it earlier today at work and I'm STILL tryin to figure out what exactly I sat through. I HATE when movies make me doubt my all-too-fragile intellect.

Like you mentioned in the OP, lee, the ending completely threw me. What do you think happened? Or if one were to assume the obvious, was there any kinda message they were trying to convey? The Coen Bros are undoubtedly known for their off-beat style, but this one completely lost me.

Hell, the beginning was just AS confusing.

There's really nothing you can do when you start to get shit on. You could interpret it several ways, but bad things happen to good people.

Watched it last night. I can't say I really "got" the end either, but I liked it and it made me want to read into it more. Great film for multiple viewings.

:lol Really? Hmm...my now unbruised intellectual ego thanks you. But, damn, what a downer.

Yeah, I think I need to give it another shot, too. Didjoo happen to understand what the opening scene was about? Or how it even REMOTELY related to the rest of the film?
