Seemingly the most underrated film by the Coen Bros. This is a pitch-perfect 1950s film noir, made in the 2000s. Great characters, acting, script, direction, cinematography, and plot twists. There really isn't anything in this entire movie that didn't work. Everything from the UFO subplot to Birdy's piano playing to Freddy Reidenschneider to dry cleaning -- like all great movies, this film creates a world that is complete within itself.

This is up there with "O Brother Where Art Thou?" for being the Coen's best looking film. Gets forgotten but its one of their best full stop.

I normally do not like the Coen Bros., but I actually found this film to be really good. Some of you might think it's a borefest and you maybe right, but this movie isn't meant to have explosions, naked women and people getting maimed or killed (at least not too many people getting killed) it was meant to be a good movie plain and simple.

If there is a film which represents the majority of 20th century progression of thought while pretending to be about a man who cuts hair, I've not yet seen it.

this one is overlooked. its better than o brother where art thou? and intolerable cruelty. this is the last movie that was thought up by the coen's. its brilliant, billy bob thornton is so deadpan, it couldn't be more humane or sympathetic. his life is too simple so you think everything he thinks and run into all the plot twists and things that fall apart on you. its passionate and heart breaking, but that's noir. on top of that, the visuals are terrific with the black and white effect, the lighting, the wide camera shots, the narrow camera shots, and the slow motion, its all here! it also has great symbolisms being that billy bob is a barber cutting hair that will just grow back even when your dead. he's a "modern man" which is hinting some sort of cold war paranoia, its terrific in every way. hugely satisfying, a bit bleak but its noir, see it!
