Yeah, the only Coen movies I liked are True Grit and No Country For Old Men. Fargo was.... ok. Didn't like The Man Who Wasn't There too much. I watched the first 20 minutes or so of O Brother, Where Art Thou, before realizing that it wasn't for me. The other ones I didn't even bother after watching the trailers.
That's what I was wondering. And I think the Coen brothers movies are appreciated more by a little more mature audience. I think the OP is a high school kid. I don't know if I would have been a big Coen Brothers fan when I was in high school.
Just saw the OP comment made a couple days ago saying he had seen Pulp Fiction for the first time. I'm positive he is a high school kid. Not that I'm looking down on that but I get it.
****ing nazis ....nothing ever changes. am i wrong? I recently did a college report on it just for fun
I liked all of those that I've seen all the way through. I enjoyed the trailers for Ladykillers but fairly bad press on it (or just saw the low box office numbers compared to Hanks's other work) so probably didn't feel it was worth watching. Also had a general idea of the plot already, sometimes when you get that info before watching a movie it deters you from fully engaging it, that's probably why I won't ever re-watch "O Brother" and probably won't ever get psyched about "The Big Lebowski." (And I'm a big enough Bridges fan to watch "Stay Hungry" anytime it's on.) I honestly think "Burn After Reading" could have won an Oscar if the Coens had admitted or embraced the political analogies and trimmed away some of the racier or more jarring scenes.
BL is hilarious, but its humor isn't for everyone. I think movies like Spinal Tap, the Blues Brothers, Dr. Strangelove, and Ghostbusters are slightly better.
I don't like your jerk-off name, I don't like your jerk-off face, I don't like your jerk-off behavior, and I don't like you... jerk-off.
