Homicidal North Dakota was built for the Co Bros. Or maybe the Co Bros invented homicidal North Dakota. In any event, they’re at home on the tundra. Nervous Nellie William Macy hatches a dumb and dumber murder plot (he’s cute when scared) and morning sickness cop McDormand (had to be a Marge) finds clues in the pitch-black snow. Pre-nihilists Buscemi and Stormare are Nordic bonuses. A strange time is had by all.
