I cannot wait to see this and its meant to be one of the best Coens films so far, and is already in the running for film of the year.

As long as the film is good I don't give a shite how long it is.

No No No, this is one of the best films ever made, if you don't get the ending then you have missed the entire point of the film, this is far from boring, far from bad, and stands on brilliance, proudly, and so it should, utter brilliance.
Not sure if its the Coen's best film, I need to see it again but the fact thats its even being thought of as being one of the Coens best films is testiment to how great it is, if its not the best its the second best Coens film ive ever seen. And as the Coens are without doubt among the best the film business has ever seen again goes to prove that this is a movie worthy of being classed as an amazing film. Sorry to ramble, this is a great film. Peace

The Big Lebowski is defo their best movie imo.

Millers Crossing is also stunning.

That would have been a good ending, but I don't think that the whole message of the film would have come across.

Im not saying much as I know Stan hasn't seen it and it's best not to know much about the film before you see it.

But I think the closing lines by Tommy Lee Jones sum up the film brilliantly and give you clues to different parts of the film that may at first seem slightly odd. Also it puts a full stop on what the Coen's wanted to say. I wish I could say more but I can't

What a superb film and the ending fitted the tone of the film perfectly, I guess Jobbie just prefers your typical hollywood film where the good guy kills everyone without getting a scratch on him then gets the girl and oh saves the world while he is at it.

The acting was superb as was the direction and writing, deserved every award it got imo.
