Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: The Coens' take on Depression-era gangster flicks, looks gorgeous and showcases John Turturro's best acting ever.
Fresh: Substance is here in spades, along with the twisted, brilliantly controlled style on which filmmakers Joel and Ethan Coen made a name.
Fresh: Crossing is the kind of movie that benefits from a second sitting, to get a complete grip on the plot.
Fresh: As disturbing and densely beautiful as its opening image.
Customer Reviews
MILLER'S CROSSING
This is an often forgotten film by the Coen brothers which is a darn shame considering how good it is. I get that it is hard to understand, but that does not mean it is boring. If you love gangster movies, then watch it and you will not be disappointed.
Finally - Greatest Gangster Movie Ever on iTunes!
Finally, iTunes has published the greatest Gangster movie ever. Some might disagree with this description but this movie is smart and funny and engaging. This is understandable since it is a Coen Brothers' Movie. It can only be fully appreciated with multiple viewings because the plot twists are too many to describe. What a great movie!
Coen Brothers Classic
Finally! Thank you iTunes for "looking into you heart" and delivering this must own movie. Marcia Gay Harden was a total bombshell in her youth.
