This was bound to be a hit. The Coen Brothers take Fargo (their 1996 hit), throw in Christian Batemen from American Psycho and set it on a 1980’s West Texas Prairie.
Tommy Lee Jones is an old-timer sheriff who’s often a few steps behind the bloodshed and left day-dreaming about the good old days. Throughout the movie he’s chasing villain Anton Chigurh who enjoys killing bystanders with a cattle euthanizer.
Central to the plot of this neo-western is a retired Vietnam vet who stumbles across a briefcase full of cash from a drug deal gone wrong, while hunting antelope. This doesn’t sit well with sadistic psychopath, Anton Chigurh. What follows is a trail of blood-shed set among big sky panoramas.
You’re sure to leave the theater confused. But you will not be disappointed because you know you will be seeing it again.
