The Coen brothers went all Clockwork Orangey in their most violent but least ironic picture, Miller's Crossing. It's a relatively run of the mill gangster thriller, though oddly the film has found an intensely loyal audience. (Many even consider it to be ...read the complete Miller's Crossing movie review at filmcritic.com (Christopher Null)

Despite its pedigree and its star-studded cast, the film is somehow underwhelming. It is consistently good, but I suppose I have come to expect more from the Coens. John Turturro is great as the weasel Bernie, and the rest of the cast does fine, ...read the complete Miller's Crossing movie review at Goatdog's Movies (Michael W. Phillips, Jr.)

When I first got a DVD player (in 1998, I believe), the first DVD I looked for was Miller's Crossing. Unfortunately, it looked like Best Buy was out of stock, so I was bummed. Imagine how bummed I was when I found out that Best Buy wasn't out of stock - ...read the complete Miller's Crossing movie review at PreViewed DVD
