I watched it because of the praise and that I've liked Coen brothers films in the past. What am I missing?

what specifically did you find underwhelming? was it specific stories that you didn't like, or was it the whole concept of all these short vignettes in one movie?

I felt like the stories never really amounted to anything interesting. I found the wagon train one to be the most engaging, but that one just ended so bizarrely.

If you thought the ending was bizarre then theres no hope for you to understand even mid-IQ media

It was bizarre in the sense that it went from them agreeing to getting married to her, for some reason, in the middle of the desert laughing at prairie dogs and then getting attacked by native americans.

Please explain the ending to me and what the story was trying to tell.

I'm not sure I like short story idea in movies, a really old concept from the days when movies were called "picture shows" which is archaic at this point. I mean I didn't like that grindhouse idea of tarantino and rodriguez.

Also coen brothers have a very specific comedy style that either works and is really fun or is just grating. It's a very fine line in their movies.

But I love zoe kazan so

The last story was excellent but the rest was terrible.

tbh, the first story was my favorite one, and I was hoping the rest of the movie would be like that
