★★★

Director: Joel Coen, Ethan Coen
Year: 2003

I’ve probably seen the beginning of this film about five times and never remembered the rest. But what I enjoyed was while I’m watching I realized it was a Coen Brother’s film just by the dialogue and style of the film. Granted, George Clooney always seems to play the same types of characters in their film. And the twisted premise is quite enjoyable. Not to mention watching Catherine Zeta-Jones, wow! But the film lacked a certain energy. It might have been the pacing, but something just wasn’t there compared to their other films.

But huge props to whoever wrote the tagline, “Engage the Enemy”. It’s absolutely brilliant!
