great. Very great.

everything I thought would be left out pretty much was, it all worked.

I'm half-way through the book.

I'm excited by the prospect of seeing the film, cause the books sucked me in.

This was an amazing film...

...would someone care to explain it to me??

what part didn't you get?
Tommy Lee Jones was a ghost the whole time, duh

I have to see it again.

and the killer dude, he was a ghost too...that's why nobody could see them

But it does explain why they could see each other!

Also, the Mexicans in the movie are time travelers

They're not Mexicans at all, they're Libyans.

EDITED FOR INCORRECT GEOGRAPHY

Great movie. Already one of my favorite Coen Bros. films. I want to read the book soon, so I can figure out how much of the Coens sensibility made it into the finished film.

The Rosenbaum review is not surprising. Though I think he is a great, great film critic, he has never a big fan of "video store film school" generation of American filmmakers (Coens, Tarrantino, etc.). I like them alright, but I can see their failings.
