The Ballad of Buster Scruggs almost feels more like a meditation on the nature of life and death than an actual movie. However, I do mean that as a compliment. The anthology premise opens more doors to discussion and interpretation on the Coen Brother's latest offering. If you compare Buster Scruggs to the Coen Brothers remake of True Grit, you wouldn't even believe that these movies are made by the same people!

Buster Scruggs himself is a delightful opening to the movie you are about to see. He feels more like a Bugs Bunny character than a Coen Brothers creation. His narrative sets the tone for the rest of the movies, and like all of the others stories, it fulfills you and leaves you wanting more.
