A fantastic movie; even-paced, gripping at some points, placid at others, and with a strong philosophical perspective which makes for one thought-provoking film worth multiple viewings. It's ambiguous ending might take the first-time viewer by surprise, leaving them scratching their head. But I think that it is an appropriate ending because it follows the movie's enduring theme and ends on a succinct summation of that theme. On another note, I like the film because there is nothing obscene and the dialogue has minimal profanity. There is a considerable amount of blood and violence, but nothing gratuitous or overly graphic. From an artistic perspective, I love how there is no score; there is no background music which helps accentuate the realism of the film and draw the viewer in closer. It was a really effective choice. The Coen brothers really did a very good job overall with this film.
