    Liked it so much more than I expected. Ridiculously fun and funny, which makes the finale all the more devastating. First time in a long time I've wanted a sequel just so I could spend more time with these characters

    As someone for whom the Coen Brothers movies more often miss than hit, I could not believe how much I liked this movie. A pitch black comedy that manages to juxtapose midwestern niceness with small time crime to their hilarious and kind of tragic end. But the nihilism of their work that almost always leaves a sour taste in my mouth is offset for once by a touch of kindness that elevates the film. At least for me anyway.

    ★★★★

    As absurd and unbelievable as it was 20 years ago. While the extra material helps to give more context and make the movie more narratively understandable, I did find the added length and Gion's new narration detracting from the insanity that made the original so appealing. Still, DIG! can easily lay claim to probably being the best rock doc ever.
