Bad movie with some good acting

Rating: 6/10 (23 February 2016)

Being a Cohen brothers fan for a very long time, I went to see the movie with certain expectations. None of them were fulfilled. Despite the fact that some parts (very few) are good, the final result is disappointing. It looks like they put in the blender some good and expensive fruits together with some rotten ones, without giving too much thought to the final result. It hasn't the usual flavor of a Cohen brothers movie. Some positive mentions: 1) Frances's part - exquisite, I believe she had the most fun and well played part. 2) Clooney and Brolin were OK most of the time. 3) Tatum's musical number was really well executed, but I can't say the same about Scarlet's part. And it is not necessarily her fault. Conclusion: a Cohen brothers movie without Cohens.
