There are still some great ideas left in
Hollywood, followed by some great actors and great directors. And sometimes,
all of those people get combined together in something called a great drama
about a mourning mother of a murdered daughter that decides to rock the small
community in Ebbing, Missouri to its foundations in an attempt to restart the
police investigation that is tapping in one place for months by criticizing the
local law enforcement by leasing three billboards just outside the city limits.
On that road, magnificent Frances McDormand will receive some fierce (best Sam Rockwell in years) and
some moderate opposition (always reliable Woody Harrelson), while one of
the most gifted writers and directors of the younger generation (McDonagh)
discreetly follows the unraveling of this peculiar social experiment.
Trademark humor that we saw in ’’In Bruges’’ will be there
as well, and everything will go smoothly till the beginning of the bottom third
of the movie.
There, the script will dissipate, as well as the
motivation and actions of the main characters, leading to the disappointing
ending of this great movie story.
’’Three billboards outside Ebbing, Missouri’’ is,
beyond any doubt, the best US movie this year, although plagued by some serious
flaws and it will represent no surprise if it sweeps the ’’Oscars’’.
