Reviews
Enjoyably quirky thriller with bizarre, off-the-wall performances from its entire cast and some striking location work.
A lame Fargo wannabe. Despite Robin Williams and a decent supporting cast, this was barely released to theaters, and it's easy to see why.
A cross-between "Raising Arizona" and "The Big Lebowski". A good film.
It's one of those movies that wants to be hip, but winds up being irritating in a pretentious, poseur sort of way.
Though it's better than Robin Williams' recent theatrical hit R.V., it still doesn't quite click.
a very good and underrated little movie, full of black comedy, clever coincidences and plot twists
Snowed under by misjudgment on every level, The Big White is DOA.
