The Ice Harvest (2005)

The Ice Harvest falls into the subcategory of a Coen Brothers film done without the Coens writing or directing.  It seems to be a genre that has been picking up steam recently, as the very Fargo-esque The...

Bad News Bears (2005)

The 1976 classic sports film, The Bad News Bears, has been given an upgrade in 2005 — they removed the word “The” from the title!  Outside of this, there is little fundamental difference between this...

Bandits (2001)

Bandits is one of those films that doesn’t really have anything really bad about it, yet for some reason it doesn’t really score a lot of points in the excitement department either. While the script...

The Man Who Wasn’t There (2001)

In my opinion a return to form for the Coen brothers, after my two least favorite films in their careers, The Big Lebowski and O Brother Where Art Thou.  The Man Who Wasn’t There is the Coen homage to...
