Hail the Coen Brothers!!

Rating: 8/10 (21 February 2016)

From religion to communism the Coen brothers tackle all. Sure the story isn't that coherent – but I laughed a lot at this excellent script. Josh Brolin and George Clooney give strong performances. Both visuals and dialogue are a hoot.
It moves rapidly from topic to topic and the imagery is relentless. It's a wonderful romp though a 50's film studio so you get epic Biblical, gorgeous female divers, a cowboy riding horses and eating beans, and even Navy tap-dancers that reminded me more of the Village People than Gene Kelly. I enjoyed the whole satire ...Hail the Coen Brothers!!
