    It's probably not a pop but will most definitely be considered as one...

    Can't let it slide though...

    Yup. Forgot about that one. The blue grass music in it is brilliant.

    I like a lot of the Coen Brother's fillums, Barry Norman move over;

    Blood Simple - their first one and it was quite good but suffered from being low budget. 5/10
    Crimewave - never seen it
    Raising Arizona - up there in my list of favourite films "Son, you got a panty on your head" 9/10
    Miller's Crossing - superb, the acting, imagery etc Like Bugsy Malone for grown ups 9/10
    Barton Fink - had its moments but didn't hit the mark for me 6/10
    The Hudsucker Proxy - another hit and miss 5/10
    Fargo - stunning, very understated performances in particular William H Macy 8/10
    The Big Lebowski - where the Brothers really hit their stride, a masterpiece 9/10
    The Naked Man - never seen it
    O Brother Where Art Thou - from the opening credits to the final scene nothing but awesome, sound track on my I-pod too 10/10
    The Man Who Wasn't There - ever reliable Billy Bob Thornton, only real criticism is that he didn't schtupp Scarlett Johansson 7/10
    Intolerable Cruelty - this sucked balls 2/10
    The Ladykillers - never seen it but the original is an all-time classic which would be hard to match
    No Country for Old Men - hard film, Bardem was super-creepy. Only criticism was how Josh Brolin's pivotal character got such a "meh" ending 8/10
    Burn After Reading - very much under the radar and unappreciated film, some top performances here 8/10
    A Serious Man - it tried really hard to be funny but never quite got there for me 5/10
    True Grit - very effective re-make of the John Wayne classic 7/10
    Gambit - never seen it
    Inside Llewyn Davis - ditto
    Unbroken - ditto
    Bridge of Spies - ditto
    Hail, Caesar! - ditto

    There you have it, the most in-depth and thought provoking film reviews you are ever likely to see.

    Gambit had Fred Dineage in it, but it wasn't very good.
