My guess is the Coen brothers didn't want a duplicate of their most successful movie "Fargo" by having another back-woods law officer outsmart the bad guys.
I'm going to grab a copy of this new release and replace the ending with the the final 2 minutes from "The Fugitive", where Tommy Lee Jones puts Harrison Ford in the police car. It will probably make more sense that way...and couldn't possibly be any worse. LOL
Not at all, no!
Ive watched it again since then and I still stand bv what I said. The whole tone of the film suggests that it shouldnt end all Gung-Ho. Sometimes cops win, sometimes criminal win. In this case, it felt right that no one should win (Except the Mexicans).
My whole point about the previous comment by 'Duckfan' was, how could he give it a high rating 1 second before the film finished, and then suddenly drop it right down. You either like the whole thing for what it is, or you dont. Simple as that really.
