Coens at their best... this is not for the quick cut all action no plot group however
You have to know what to expect from the Coen Brothers. The dry humour was great! It is meant for a mature audience for sure with opera music, synchronized swimming and a deep Russian song. No zombies, nudity or assault weapons killing hundreds here. Wonderful if your IQ is bigger than your shoe size. Way over the heads of the messy popcorn scattering, noisy, young men we experienced who could not stay seated or be quiet so others could enjoy.
What an educated funny movie this is, excellent .. The tongue-in-cheek dialectic critique of Hollywood is beyond belief funny . Again, you need a few cultural pointers to really enjoy the subtle humor.
Mediocre comedy that is not up to par for the Cohen Brothers.
So lame. The subtle humour doesn't save this movie. They tried to do too much and failed miserably. These guys can be funny, however they only managed a couple of funny moments. We were really disappointed.
this movie? is a piece of crap the acting (which was supposed to look bad) was so good, it looked bad. what a piece of crap. every cliché and nuance and lame line imagined in any old movie was here. still a piece of crap I couldn't get up and leave, I wanted to....... did I mention, this movie (even with the great soundbites and optical references to bygone cinema) is a piece of CRAP !
Best movie I've seen in a long time. There is a much deeper level that I guess a lot of people just aren't getting. The people who don't get this movie will probably enjoy Zoolander.
I love old movies but this was a big bore. Don't waste your money.
Worst movie ever....saw 3 couples leave an hour through the movie never to return.
worst movie I ever saw - boring to a point where we left mid-way...they only redeeming part is Tatum's song and dance number which he did perfectly.
