Average. This reminds one of classics like Fargo and A Simple Plan, but where they ventured into new territory, this just stumbles in imitation. Its not that bad, some big names here, good performances, notably Holly Hunter's high strung turn. Good time waster. Rent it if there's not much else.

It aspires to be Fargo but is mildly entertaining.

Black comedy trying really hard to be Fargo. Quirky characters portrayed by great actors more than make up for the movie's flaws.

Humour so subtle you need a microscope at times - similar to Burn After Reading.

A tonal mish-mash of a film with pretensions of Coen-ism. With a soundtrack that relies too heavily on the Eels, The Big White simply thinks it's much funnier than it actually is.

I found the story interesting and funny, but then it started going a bit overboard with everything near the end.

Although mostly slow, it has some interesting bits. There is no laugh out loud comedy here though. Alaska provides a nice backdrop.

A movie completely without notion. In spite of beginning a bit slowly, it has some unlikely and funny situations.
