Boring and Dull

Rating: Null/10 (23 August 2016)

I was hoping this would be another great Coen Brothers movie. Boy, was I disappointed. The cast is great, but the writing is abysmal. Johan Hill's part is so small he probably shot it in 30 minutes.
It was supposed to be a parody of 1940's and '50's Hollywood, but it couldn't seem to decide if it wanted to be a serious movie or a comedy. Mostly, it was just excruciating.
There were very few laughs and many plot points seemed incomplete.
Thank goodness I waited for this to come out on DVD and didn't waste my money seeing it in a theater.
I'm thinking waiting for any future Coen Brothers movies to come out on DVD might not be the worst idea.
