I'm down on graphic/gratuitous violence. But this film (like Fargo) had to have it to punctuate it's message. Regardless, in the end, I was numb to it, as absurd as it was.

Been thinking about it the last couple days and I thought I figured it out: Villain and hero switch places somewhere through the film. Looks like Agent928 came to the same conclusion.

Very tough for me to get through the first 20-30 minutes. Truly riveting thereafter.

A great film.
Aren't I awesome? and so humble too.
