| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzA strange but not funny spoof of hitmen that disappoints because the comedy is too simplistic. |
| User ReviewBon BSo fucked and good. Coen bros. and Raimi working together, what more could you ask for? |
| User ReviewPatrick RRaimi's best. The Coens' best. Campbell's best. |
| User ReviewDoctor SThis movie is like a live action cartoon. Raimi and The Coens team up to bring us what may be the strangest thing any of them have ever done. The camera work is amazing, the sets are great, and some of the gags are priceless. Why this movie is so unappreciated is beyond me. It seems to me that names like Sam Raimi and The Coen Brothers, would have companies clamoring to cash in on a good DVD release, but sadly, that doesn't seem to be the case. |
| User ReviewFabien DThis movie is really awesome and I'm surprised it doesn't have a bigger following since it's a collaborative effort between Sam Raimi and the Coen Brothers. If you had a blender and mixed in some classic noir with some Raising Arizona, and a dash of Evil Dead styled camera work, you'd get this highly insane crime comedy. It's a silly movie at times, but it's all entirely entertaining. A must see for fans of Evil Dead and Raising Arizona. |
| User ReviewMark Ii remember this film from years back the Rat Catchers are great and the flying plates part is very funny |
| User ReviewJeffrey Rgiven some of the people involved (Raimi, Coens, Campbell), i really wanted to love this uneven work that was about as well executed as Vic was. |
| User ReviewLiam J"Tell him it's a two for one sale." |
| User ReviewChris GIt's like who framed roger rabbit but without Cartoons! Plus Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell taught me everything I know...*blank stare* |
| User ReviewMats NThe Coen Brothers + Sam Raimi + Bruce Campbell = One of the best films ever! |
