About this movie

Award-winning actress Frances McDormand (Fargo) delivers a stunningly powerful performance in this darkly comic drama that has been hailed as one of the year’s best films. A murdered girl’s defiant mother (McDormand) boldly paints three local signs with a controversial message, igniting a furious battle with a volatile cop (Sam Rockwell) and the town’s revered chief of police (Woody Harrelson).

As someone who is actually from Missouri I can tell you this film wasn't made anywhere near here (but I already knew that having previously looked up the filming locations). That being said.... SPOLER ALERT The ending of this movie PISSED ME OFF. We are under the impression throughout the majority of the film that there will be some type of justice for what happened to her daughter, but all the climactic elements set you up for is DISAPPOINTMENT. They never manage to find the guy.

A thorough let down. A Cohen brothers wanna be.What's sad is that it could actually have been a very good film. Starts off strong. Good actors. Somewhere around the middle the story takes a turn and you go, huh! It's downhill from there. The ending caps it off. Credits come up and you day to yourself, "no, they didn't do that". But they did. Don't waste a perfectly good two hours.

Dark and Dissatisfying I am saddened that Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri is nominated for Best Picture of the Year. I feel that the film possesses an inventful premise. However, I think that the drama is filled to the brim with lingering hatred from beginning to end! Though I believe that the script is well-acted, I think that it includes numerous stereotypes. I felt numb after I watched the movie for I thought that it left little hope for positive changes amongst its characters.
