Barton Fink
Barton Fink, 1991. A pretentious Broadway playwright is in over his head in Hollywood. Directed by Joel Coen. Written by Joel & Ethan Coen. Starring John Turturro & John Goodman.
Concept: 3/4 (Good)
Story: 3/4 (Good). I wouldn't have minded if it had an ending... Otherwise, great.
Characters: 4/4 (Great)
Dialog: 4/4 (Great)
Pacing: 4/4 (Great)
Cinematography: 4/4 (Great)
Special effects/design: 4/4 (Great)
Acting: 4/4 (Great)
Music: 3/4 (Good)
Subjective Rating: 7/10 (Good, 3/4). Lots of fun, but a far cry from the Coens' best. Then again, looking at how high I'm scoring it, maybe not.
Objective Rating (Average): 3.6/4 (Great)
