So f--king cool.<br /><br />Excellent call on it being like a Coen brothers' movie. Seems like it shared a universe with No Country, didn't it?

Nah, ...WHAT? You stopped paying attention? Booooo!<br /><br />Nah, that kind of stuff happens sometimes, but for me, I was HOOKED. I had to peel my face off the screen half the time, I was so in two these four characters (especially Foster!!).<br /><br />That ending! Holy cow...it turned into Heat for a stretch.

I was hoping to be entertained, and assuming that with this cast it was going to be good, I too was blown away by how awesome this film was.<br /><br />I do think they sort of beat us over the head with the failing economy message, but I suppose that was the idea, right?

You point out excellent points, the banter between Alberto and Bridges was great, and that 'rattlesnake' of a diner was just fucking epic!!

I wish Foster had an Oscar nomination over Bridges though. I never tire of saying that.<br /><br />"Only assholes drink Mr. Pibb" is one of my favorite movie lines of last year.

I'm so glad it got Oscar attention so more people see it because it's totally one that could have gone by without much notice. The green mustang/Mr Pibb scene was the best! My only complaint would be it was a little on-the-nose with it's failing economy message, but I did appreciate that as a plot point in the movie inJesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03015323238572496175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1369116000753884175.post-86004034466299357542017-01-31T12:01:32.142-05:002017-01-31T12:01:32.142-05:00Wanna know my favorite line other then the Alzheim...Wanna know my favorite line other then the Alzheimer one? "Why is it always the sweet ones that are such devil when you get them revved up?" :P<br /><br />God I just loved that script. I couldn't tell where any of this is going to go and the tension and the humour was insane. The whole back and forth with Bridges and Alberto where he is like 'I KNOW THIS BRANCH IS CLOSED!' s.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13987831438787776712noreply@blogger.com
