Rating: Summary: Good Movie! Review: Hi, I'm 11 yrs old, and I watched this movie with my parents and believe it or not, I loved it!! My parents really liked it too!! I recommend this movie, its funny and has great music!
Rating: Summary: A Top Notch Flick Review: Superb. Brilliant, right up there with the best by the Coen brothers! Plenty of surprises! I especially enjoyed Clooney as the rube with an education as well the evil political guys. The kids' reaction to their long lost daddy is probably the best kid reaction I've seen on the screen. The KKK scene alone is worth the price of admission. BUY it.
Rating: Summary: EXCELLENT & very funny!! Review: Set during the great depression, this movie tells the story of the adventures of three escaped convicts on their way to a treasure which the main character, George Clooney, convinces the other two to go after it with him. They are chained together so Clooney has to do quite a selling job to get them to go and thus win his own freedom. They escape their chain gang and the adventures that befall them from start to finish are amazing. Best of all, the comedy is so well played by these three characters that you forget you're watching a movie! I laughed so hard my face hurt.
Whether you buy or not, and I recommend that you do, you have GOT to see this movie!
Rating: Summary: It's Bona Fide! Review: Maybe it just hit me at the right moment but this movie kinda changed my life. Besides it's cinematic beauty (it fairly glows), the memorable images, the great characters, biblical allegories and all that, it's got the great, simple, universal message that the greatest fortune, for which we sometimes must undergo terrible travails to discover, is the love of family. Folks that just don't get it, well, they're dumber than a bag of hammers...(just kidding)
Rating: Summary: Superb entertainment Review: This movie is such great fun to watch! Don't take it seriously and have fun and it will become one of your favorite 10 movies of all time. The reviewer that is concerned about the cows getting shot; well PLEASE read the credits, "No animals were harmed..." Same goes for the shot that looks like a cow gets hit by Baby Face Nelson's car. These were computer generated effects, people!! And the poor reviewer that made the "Green Acres" comment, well, sir, you simply don't get it! Great fun to watch and fascinating to listen to, great "Old Timey" music and the soundtrack is STILL in the top ten on the country music charts. Don't miss this movie!
Rating: Summary: Animals Murdered, Hooray Review: Am I the only one who doesn't see why the senseless murdering of animals is supposed to be a big laugh? Am I the only one who was not slapping his knee at the sight of a cow being machine-gunned?
Rating: Summary: You got to be kidding Review: I've watched hundreds of movies and never walked out on one, until now. No humor, no action, no plot. If you like this type of movie, you are much better off watching reruns of Green Acres.
Rating: Summary: I Love This Movie! Review: I really Liked this movie! It was funny, old fashioned, thrilling and even scary at certain points! If you like a movie with those features, I think this is the type of movie for you to see. You may even fall in love with the traveling songs that are played or sang. I mean like, before, I wasn't really a fan of bluegrass, but I absolutely love those songs in the movie!! Hope you enjoy the movie!
Rating: Summary: "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" Definately a "buyable" release! Review: Homer's "Odessy" set in the Great Depression of the 1930s. The unexpected slap stick humor of the opening sceens sets the entire movie off on a possitive note. I've purchased the movie AND the soundtrack. Both are excellent!! I'm very impressed with the use of "surround sound" in the movie. I feel its use is very effective in the "baptism at the river" scene. The accent of all the characters fits perfectly in the Delta Area of the state of Mississippi. I would recommend purchasing this movie and its soundtrack. A definate excellent addition to anyone's library. Although, after reading a representative portion of the reviews, maybe this movie is not for everyone. If you can appreciate "rural" humor of the deep South, I'd strongly recommend it. Not everyone likes Andy Griffith! :)
Rating: Summary: Great movie Review: I can't really add anything to the other reviews that have been posted here. All I have to say is: What is the deal with all these people asking about the "cult-like" group in the forest? Don't you know what Southern Baptists are?
