The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada

Post by Aslanna »

My reviews suck so just go to imdb and read those. But I thought this was a decent movie even if Mr Cranky didn't like it. I hadn't heard of it before but I guess it came out about a year ago. It was directed by, and stars, Tommy Lee Jones. The movie is about two hours long but it didn't seem that long to me although the beginning was a bit slow to get going.

9/10

Their description of the movie sucks though as I wouldn't really call it a 'black comedy'.

I remember seeing Tommy Lee talking about this film on the Tavis Smiley show (insomnia ftw!)

Going to check it out.
