As of this writing, 6.2 (6,202 votes). While the reviews seem mostly quite positive. Is this movie worth watching or not? I know that whether a film is good or not is a matter of opinion...but this flick is on TV tonight and I was wondering if I should bother.
In 6 years only 6,200 people felt this movie was worth commenting on? And it only got a 6.2?
Yet the commentors have mostly good thigs to say...
This is a very underrated film. It has the feeling of a more light-hearted Coen brothers flick.

The only sane choice.
Don't *beep* this up America
I was feeling, Coen Brothers Wannabe Flick, and as such there was something missing.

I loved this film. Thought it was fresh funny and generally entertaining.
Watch it.
Defs does have a Cohen Brothers feel to it, but is a hugely underrated movie. I have seen it several times and really impressed with the story and screenplay and loved Michael Jeter's old man Toto. He was perfectly cast. Also had a broadway play feel to it. Sits in my top list.
shareI enjoyed it. Worth watching. Great cast and script.
shareEntertaining film, had me laughing quite a bit. Don't know what all this rubbish I have seen people writing about it being a "Coen brothers wannabe flick". I didn't find that at all, fairly ignorant thing to say as well tbh.

Sorry abt necro... one guy even went as far as calling it a wannabe "Cohen" brothers flick...
I mean seriously, how much of wannabe Coen brothers snob does one have to be to spell it incorrectly?
Oh and fwiw, I was more entertained by this than the last Coen bro movie I saw. I think I fell asleep in O Brother... music was good, but... nyeh.
Not sure how relevant that last bit is...
Perhaps because while it's the kind of film you enjoy and can appreciate is good it's not actually one you will want to watch again. Several people have observed it's a wannabe Coen bros film. Given it's a remake that's probably not fair but I have to admit I thought I was watching one of their's and was wondering when Frances McDormand would turn up.
shareI agree - it's got a Coen Bros feel to it.
That said, I enjoyed it, and re-watch it every now and then.
It's 6.4 now. I wouldn't say it's that low, I rated this movie 7, but a 6 and a half is not too bad. Good comedy, better than most. Great cast too.
Boycott movies that involve real animal violence! (and their directors too)
This movie is at least an 8 for me.
