this is the only coen film I stopped watching half way through, just boring

I disagree desu, it was pretty funny

you liked it but then you remembered coen brothers are reddit so now you pretend to dislike it

comfy

Not much at all. Then in a month or two, you won’t even be able to describe the plot. You’ll just remember George Clooney was kidnapped and taken to a fancy house in the hills.

I expected a decent ending, but it was such a disappointing movie.

It was almost like a slice of life anime

Channing Tatum was the weakest aspect of the movie. It was okay as a movie but very low on the Coen filmography, primarily because it doesn't quite have enough tension and weight around it. It's just funny as a satire of the studio system and the era, but never really seems to build up to anything particularly interesting.

It almost felt like a pilot to a TV show, which would have been fairly interesting if it had been allowed to develop further.

I think it's a lovely slice of life as well as a nice little biblical parable.

Fuck you I liked it, but yeah needed more fleshing out

Showed how retarded communists are which was based, but pretty bland overall.

After seeing Channing Tatum dancing you finally realized you are in fact gay.

Keep forgetting it. I'm constantly corrected on here that there was a movie between Llewyn Davis and Buster Scruggs.

Watching the bumbling communists is funnier since I started browsing here.

I like it a lot after watching it a second time. Its a day in the life of ... kinda movie thats sectioned off around some really spectacular set pieces for different old hollywood types of movies and musicals.

I just don't get why they made it. There's some good performances and some funny bits but overall it's just a meandering movie

Inside Llewyn Davis was really a waste of time.

I loved it idk what to tell ya man

You feel regret, and should have watched The Nice Guys

God I just don't understand how anyone can have that opinion, it's just so wrong

>I just don't get why they made it.

Same reason as to why they remade the Ladykillers and True Grit, or did Intolerable Cruelty. Sometimes they just do movies for fun, because they love the original or the genre. Hail, Caesar is basically a fan movie about the 50s Hollywood.

I remember Brolin slapping the Marxism out of Clooney. That was fun.

What was so great about it? It was completely pointless and even from a slice of life point of view it was boring as fuck.

It was a beautifully melancholic film about a man with immense talent but no ability to take care of himself or provide for his future. It's a movie about wasted potential and how if you can never get over the past tragedies in your life then you'll find yourself stuck in an endless rut

Was he immensely talented though? I was under the impression that he was a bit too full of himself while just being in the wrong spot at the wrong time.
And "A serious Man" did the "such is life" thing a lot better.

So in other words ... Yas Forums should love it

It didn't really have much of a plot. It was just a bunch of stuff happening in 50s Hollywood.

I won't say it's better than A Serious Man, because it isn't. But I think A Serious Man is their best film overall, so it's not fair for me to judge the two. But I truly think he was very talented, he packed the Lamplight, his performances in the film are really great, he gets people to invite him to do studio cuts for bullshit commercial songs, he was well-known to the Columbia staff around the Village, like the two professors (The Gorfeins) who loved his work and invited him to dinner parties. But he just couldn't get out of his own way, he just did not understand how to commercialize himself and make a living off his talent. I think a lot of that is because he never felt comfortable as a solo act after his partner took a header off the GW

Pleb filter.

The kidnapping was more of a pretext to give opportunity to lampoon the McCarthy era red scare and the studio system that only cares about making money, so they might protect their stars from scandal but only because it would hurt their profitability and studio's revenue stream, and don't give fuckall about people's rights, etc.

I see. Maybe I should rewatch. A serious Man also needed a few times for me to really appreciate it.
