I watched this movie knowing nothing about it other than it's possibly a remake of the John Wayne one thinking "I can't believe how fucking good this movie is". Then I saw the end credits, figures...

With that first scene I was like omg this is going to be awesome. Then it just continually let me down over and over. I like all their other movies though.

Just wasn't enjoyable, simply, and if that was their aim, then should have been slapped upside their heads when they thought of it. I don't want to watch a movie about a guy with the worst luck in the world and the Coens finding hidden ways to rub it in like anti-traditional cinema structure. It was their Jackson Pollock.
