Critic Reviews
-
Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
After making what are still probably their two best features, the Coen brothers came up with their worst, a piece of pop nihilism.
-
Peter Rainer, New York Magazine
The Coens' usual arch deliberateness isn't quite as deliberate, and there's an appealing shagginess to some of the episodes and performances.
-
Joe Baltake, Sacramento Bee
The film is a mélange of so many clashing ideas, as well as a reference-tribute to so many moments in movie history.
-
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
It's a wild, whacked-out wonder.
-
Susan Stark, Detroit News
Leaves a sour taste.
