I enjoyed this a lot. Pretty much every minor or major character throughout the entirety of the film played their role perfectly, which is a rare thing. Far too often it's a few strong performances surrounded by mediocrity, but everyone gave it their best on this, and it just came together perfectly. I thought the ending was what it needed to be. I would have liked some closure as well, but this being the type of movie it was, and for it feeling as real as it did, closure isn't a reality for the victims of incidents like this, and I'm glad they went with an ending that felt real to me, vs an overly convenient and fake feeling end. I imagine that they changed their minds before getting to Idaho, or maybe they got there and watched the guy and depending on what they saw, they made their decision based off that. I like to think they killed him, but they both seem too sensible for that. One of my favorite scenes in the whole movie was the realization on McDormand's face after her ex copped to burning down her signs. I had assumed it wasn't Rockwell, but that was just fucking perfect, and then her admitting what she did to Rockwell, and his response was just perfect as well. He's always been one of those actors that has kind of pissed me the fuck off, but I thought he was fucking phenomenal in this.
Anyways, great recommendation and I'm glad I finally had an excuse to watch this.
Same I been meaning to watch it for ages and things kept popping up from stopping me watching at at the cinemas
