It certainly had a direct to video vibe.bart wrote:Hated that movie, really seemed like it was a short or even some kind of animation demo that they decided to stretch out into a feature

Re: What movies are you watching?
I watched Raising Arizona last night. That's never been one of my preferred Coen movies. It is downright funny at times, but overall just a little too silly for me to really get into it. I do t think they had quite found that balance yet. I watched Inside Llewyn Davis a couple days before that. I'm on a bit of a Coen brothers kick, so tonight I'm queuing up Adaptation
