• Poster: B

Review:

Attempting to build on the popularity of Fargo's homespun trailer from 1996, the poster designer does a decent, but not exceptional job.

• Trailer: C

Review:

This black comedy, like the Coen Brothers' Fargo, seems to be running on the fumes of its stars presenting nothing original or exciting that would wow potential viewers.

Oscar Prospects:

None.
