Summary: I liked it I really liked it
Review: I didn't expect to like this movie particularly. I thought it was about southern baptists or something but I really enjoyed it, largely because I loved the music. The fact that they state at the beginning that it is based on Homer's Odyssey was a bit of a distraction - I kept wondering "was this in the odyssey?" and it might have been more fun (in fact, I know it would have been more fun) if they hadn't TOLD us it's based on the Odyssey, and we, the viewers were allowed to make the connection ourselves.

Summary: The more you watch the more you see.
Review: If you are thinking of purchasing O Brother, you are getting a movie that is not a one time watch novilty movie. Every time you watch this movie something else will be noticed that went unseen before. I highly reccomend this movie for its witty jokes and high rewatch value.

Summary: What a light-hearted movie should be.
Review: The soundtrack really sets the tone for this well paced journey. Not too fast, not too slow, the Coen brothers show us depression era America and some of it's famous faces. All loosely tied together after Homer's Odyssey, O Brother has enough substance to keep my attention, without demanding it. The quirky characters and situations keep the pace up and lead you through this amusing story.

Summary: I'm shocked by the reviews here.
Review: I just rented the movie yesterday. I thought it was the stupidest movie I had ever seen. There was some funny moments, but almost all of them were funny because of the stupity the characters possessed. There is no witt or retort behind this movie. If you really have nothing to watch, rent it. But if you are looking for a good movie, look elsewhere.

Summary: Clever, Humorous; Movie and Music Work Well Together
Review: One of the best movies I have seen this year. This was highly recommended by some work associates and I gave it a try. This movie seems to work on all levels and was a very enjoyable and fun movie to watch. I immediately watched it again a 2nd time which is something I almost never do. The music is very enjoyable and well matched to the movie. While not the music I typically listen to, it creates the right moods and lingers after the movie is done. I'll probably get the CD as well. Bravo! This is a well done and satisfying work that will become a classic.

Summary: Love the movie and score..
Review: It's corny. It's hokey. Guess what? You will love it! The music haunts you and before you know it you've bought the CD and the DVD. I love to escape into this simple story and take a look at life as it could/should have been. Everyone in the movie is terrific and I believe all of us should "look for the sunny side of life" whenever and where ever we can find it.

Summary: Care for Some Gopher?
Review: My 5 stars nothwithstanding, this movie has several flaws -- Clooney's worked-beyond-the-point-of-death pomade fetish being only the most obvious and grating. What it also has, though, is several scenes that are nothing less than astonishing. At the top of my personal list (I'm sure you have or will have your own) is "Down in the River to Pray." I have not listened to the CD "soundtrack" of this movie, but, reading the reviews, I get the idea that Alison Krauss pretty much took over the song there. If true, that's a shame, but whether it is or not, the visual element is so strong -- and so essential to the subsequent progress of the movie -- that no audio-only rendering could possibly duplicate the experience of the DVD. In this scene, the faithful "materialize" out of the woods -- and out of your rear speakers if you have a surround system -- to involve you personally. In their white robes (which costumes are repeated later in somewhat less harmonious circumstances -- a "coincidence" that I'm sure was NOT lost on the Coens), the congregation represent the ingenuous best in depression-era southern culture.
Hmmm, I guess I better quit this review now, before I talk myself out of the 5 stars. ;)

Summary: It can't get worse
Review: Plain and simple bad, this movie could not keep my attention at all although Clooney is ok but thats it.

Summary: An Excellent Film
Review: This was an excelent film. The story and acting was great. It also seems like the creators were shooting for the feel of a full length Three Stooges feature film w\plot.

Summary: O' Brother Where Art Thou
Review: This was THE Most hilarious movie I've ever seen. We went to the theater 5 times to see it, and we never do that. Also, we have seen it 5 or 6 times since it came out on DVD. Sometimes now, we just watch our favorite parts.
