Movie Review — Restless
It’s October. A time when Ghoulies, Ghosties and Long-Legged Beasties roam the earth.

It’s an incredible film that ranks amongst the Coens’ [...]
There are two things present in every Coen Bros film – crime and fools. Usually the fools are the ones committing the crimes and trying (failing) to get away with them. However, it never feels like the brothers have any sympathy towards the “heroes.” On the contrary, it often feels like they enjoy making up [...]
The Big Lebowski himself, Jeff Bridges, will take John Wayne’s Oscar-winning role in the Coen Brothers’ remake of True Grit. It’s been over a decade since the actor has worked with the talented directors, in the role which probably drew him more popular attention than any other character. According to a Variety scoop, the Coens [...]
Cutting to the chase: If you like the Coen Brothers previous works of No Country for Old Men, or even O Brother Where Art Thou? than you will find this to be a along the same lines. If you don’t it may make you laugh as it did me. But it also will surprise you [...]
