Barton Fink is their lamest outing and others should be so lucky to have the equivalent as their 'worst' movie. |

Hopefully it will be a sleeper and do better and better each week. |

You can't go wrong with NCFOM. |

If you're hoping it'll do better each week, then your hopes have been answered. |
