A Simple Plan

Reviewer: Joe Casaletto

It doesn't take long to figure out that only one person is going to be alive with the money at the end of this movie. That's okay, because it's hard to figure out which one it will be (I guessed wrong). You'll enjoy the ride. This one reminded me slightly of Fargo. If you liked that one you'll probably enjoy this one.

A few things didn't make sense, though. When he was secretly taping the fat drunk guy and got him to confess, why the HELL did he decide to whip out his tape recorder and play it back? What did he THINK was going to happen? "Oops you got me that time!""?? And we thought Jacob was the stupid one -- it must run in the family.

Also, we couldn't come up with a plausible reason why didn't he ask to see the badge of the fake FBI agent. If you can think of one let me know!
