Coens. Love 'em or hate I guess.
INSIDE is typical Coens: perfect visuals, dark dry humor, John Goodman, and the sense after the thing ends that it ultimately doesn't have much of a point.
First four movies are great and I've watched 'em all a billion times since they came out. Since then, "hit or miss" nails it. Have they made a comedy better than Raising Arizona? A better noir than Blood Simple? Pushed themselves as far as they did in Barton Fink? Personally, I don't think so. I might add Fargo to the first four, but that's probably it.
