Review of Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri (2017) by Yosemite — 28 Nov 2017
Could have been a great film but wasn't. Superlatives : the acting of Frances McDormand is superlative and Oscar worthy and the performances of Woody and Sam Rockwell were equally excellent. One or two will get a nomination.
The plot was original and creative and the dialogue was equally creative. On the negative side , the vulgarity is gratuitive, unrealistic and ineffective. That same creative plot was inconsistent. The film lacked subtlety and the rural Missourians were were portrayed as hicks and dumb wits.
The longer the movie played, the more unrealistic Frances' actions became. Billboards; yes. Bombing police station;not likely.
