First Coen movie I couldn't get thru


Let me say you won't find a much bigger fan of Coen movies. I even liked 'A Serious Man' by them. But this is first time I just couldn't get thru it. It had no appeal to me and didn't have those trademark idiosyncrasy that we have learned to love. I think they redeem themselves in big way with Hail, Caesar! (coming out in 2016).

As a paradoxical point and counter point, this was the first Coen movie that I could get through, or at least the first one that I got to the end and didn't like "I'd like that time back".

That means we have very different views on this movie, but it supports your notion that it's a horse of a very different colour to their usual fare.

Ugh, A Serious Man? I can't decide which movie is worse. And frankly, I've got better things to do then to ponder that conundrum.




I want the doctor to take your picture so I can look at you from inside as well.

I almost shot myself trying getting through "No Country for Old Men".
