A cracking film....that many don't understand

Rating: 9/10 (4 March 2016)

Such a fantastic film that people just don't seem to get. I've read reviews that complain about the plot, or scenes which do not appear to be relevant, but clearly they do not understand what the film is about. "Hail, Caesar!" depicts a day in the life of Eddie Mannix, and the mad, often random events of the film are supposed to reflect the busy nature of his job. Excellent work from the Coen brothers, and an absolutely superb performance from Josh Brolin, who held the entire film together. At times this reminded me of the Big Lebowski, specifically its laid back tone. Perhaps not a film for everyone, but certainly not just for "film snobs." However, I'm not sure why they plastered Jonah Hill's face all over their marketing, as he had less than 5 minutes on screen.
