Caesar salad, rather than Hail, Caesar!

Rating: 1/10 (26 February 2016)

What do you get when one of the best directing/writing teams of Ethan Coen, Joel Coen (No Country for Old Men - 2007, The Big Lebowski - 1998, and Fargo - 1996) gathers an array of top billing actors (Josh Brolin, George Clooney, Ralph Fiennes, Scarlett Johansson, Tilda Swinton, Frances McDormand, Channing Tatum, Jonah Hill, Wayne Knight - Seinfeld, Alison Pill - The Newsroom) for a period piece about 1950's communist in the movie industryABSOLUTE DISASTER! Featuring a corny storyline, a waste of many a worthy actor ability, and just plain not funny, this has to be one of the Coen Brothers worst productions ever. Of the numerous actors who show-up/cameo here, there isn't one performance worth noting. Everyone was probably under the Coen Brother spell "If it's a Coen Brother's film, it will be good". Joke is on them, and us as the viewing audience. Running 106 minutes, I'd rather go to a restaurant and enjoy a nice leisurely caesar salad!
