Absolutely fantastic film! Anyone else seen it?

The sound design is incredibly impressive especially since it has to be so thorough since there is no score throughout the entire movie.

If you are a Coen brothers fan this one is a must see!

    I saw it. Great acting, great suspense, kept me on the edge of my seat most of the film. However, I would've changed the ending.


    Spoiler alert:

    I know they probably wanted something a little less conventional then good guy lives, bad guy dies, but they just kind of leave you hanging. I mean, why just have him get shot by some hombres and not show his face. And, WTF was the deal with Tommy Lee and bad dude not having a fracas? Was he in the room at the same time at the end? Did he slip out the back window with the loot? Why not kill Tommy like he did everyone else.

    Also, didn't like or get the point of the two deep conversations (first with Tommy talking to the guy's wife; then with Tommy talking the old man river at the end).

    Anyway, liked the film, but would've love it had it ended differently. Also, I loved Woody's character for the 10 minutes he was in the film, but, while he sounded like a convincing bad-****, he didn't show it.
