Directed by Joel Coen

Synopsis

Their lawless years are behind them. Their child-rearing years lay ahead...

The Coen Brothers tell the story of an absurd yet likable family with an unproductive couple as the focal point. The couple has gotten themselves into some trouble while kidnapping a baby and give Hollywood one of the most memorable chase scenes to date.

Review by demi adejuyigbe ★★★★★ 24

One of the best shot comedies I’ve ever seen. The chase scene is incredible and everything that follows is absolutely flawless. Immensely quotable too! I can’t believe this was their second film? It’s made so confidently in every way, the script is perfect, every one of the performances is perfect, their style feels so established already. Gonna go back in time and beat my own ass for thinking it was “fine” the first time around. I wonder how many times Ryan Gosling has seen this film.
Review by Karst ★★★½ 12

The way Nic Cage delivered the line "I'll be takin' these Huggies and whatever cash you got".....perfection.
Review by Lucy ★★★★½ 2

"you go RIGHT back up there and get me a toddler"
my dad was just in hysterics for every second of this even though he's seen it a thousand times and it only made it infinitely more hilarious

better opening montage than up
Review by liam f ★★★★★ 5

if Nicolas Cage's hairstyle in this film alone isn't worth five stars, I don't know what is
Review by laird ★★★★★ 11

When H.I. pauses to reflect on the fact that Leonard Smalls has the same tattoo as him (a roadrunner) it confirms that Smalls may be cut from the same cloth as him.
David Lynch exorcised his fears of settling down and fathering a child with a mutant baby and a lady in a radiator.
The Coens try to catch and tame Wile E Coyote by having him confront and blow-up the worst part of his nature. He eventually comes to the conclusion: "Ed & I, we can be good."

pretty annoyed that no one is overwhelmingly in love w me to the point where they'd steal me a rich man's child

The Redneck Tenenbaums
Review by Joel Haver ★★★★★ 5

The final scene in the babies’ bedroom sums it all up. The forgiveness, the understanding, the moments of reflection. Aren’t we all goofy lil funhouse mirrors for each other to stare into. Squint your eyes and you’ll always see yourself in someone else.
Review by matt lynch ★★★★

round is funny.
