I don't even know where to begin with this movie. I almost can't even see why it's a cult classic. Jerry is in deep financial trouble, and his rich father-in-law is a jerk, so he decides to have his wife kidnapped and have her father pay the ransom. Basically every character is incompetent, except for the heavily pregnant sheriff investigating. There's a lot of violence, a lot of death, a lot of Minnesota accents.I guess some people might find it funny, but it's just not my type of humor. Mostly I was impressed by Frances McDormand's performance as the sheriff. The rest of it, I could have lived without.
Still, I'm glad that I finally got around to seeing this cult classic.
Rating: 2.5
