Summary: One of my favorite films!
Review: I must have seen this film 25 times and it just gets better and better each time! This is definately a love/hate film though. I have never met anyone that just thinks it's ok. People either hate it or love it, similiar to the reaction to Fargo. I recommend it highly if you want more than just brainless comedy. You have to really study this movie, and like I said, it gets better each time.

Summary: I'M GEORGE NELSON, BORN TO RAISE HELL
Review: This movie is kick ass! two words GEORGE NELSON. This guy is rightious, if it weren't for him I don't think that I could give this movie five stars! The rest of the charectors are great as well, but in my opinion, George Nelson is on the throwne of great charectors! everytime I watch this movie, I always look forward to the part where the cops are car chasing George Nelson and all of the sudden, George starts shooting the live stock and all this time the cops are a little distance away from Georges car and some cows walk between Georges car and the cop cars and the car in front rams into the cow and I swear the front of the car jumps two or three feet in the air and it just totals the car. Everytime I see that part, I swear I am going to kill my self because I am laughing so hard and I can hardly breathe, let me tell you why I think that part is holarious! because back in 1994 me and my dad were driving out in the backroads in his 1973 ford high boy, we had just barely got done restoring her so she still had some bugs in the engine that we had to work out and she died on us, so my dad's friend came and towed us back to the farm with his 93 ford truck and basically the same thing happened to us, we were a ways from the farm and we were being towed back and this damn cow got right between the two trucks and SLAM we hit that damn cow and literally ran over the damn thing and it hurt like a bitch when we hit the roof. That is why I find that part so funny, because I can't imagine how the cops in that first car felt, plus it brought back some old memories, not to mention the look on george nelsons face, something happened to the cow and the cops which he hates one almost as worse as the other. Another reason why I think it is so funny is because movies don't usually show that anymore and you aren't expecting it and then all of the sudden the car jumps three feet in the air and the cow is laying in front of the car as mangled as the car is. It is kind of sad when you think of the situation and probably to most people that scene is really uncool but if you have ever had that experience, I can promise you that you will laugh your ass off! all in all this movie is totally kick ass, so get home early one night,sit down with your family, get the bowl of popcorn, and grab that bottle of beer and sit back and enjoy the ride

Summary: A crazy mixed up world
Review: The Coen Brothers have done some pretty audacious movies, but this may just be there most audacious yet, as they take on the great book, The Odyssey, and do a might fine job of it in depression-era Mississippi. George Clooney is Ulysses, but of course one can't take him too seriously in the role. He gets some fine help from John Turturro and Tim Blake Nelson, as the three convicts make their escape from a chain gang. Along the way we are introduced to a strange assortment of characters (What would you expect?) held together by a well-conceived storyline that doesn't fail to deliver a fine ending. T-Bone Burnett provides an inspiring Folk and Prison Blues soundtrack that resurrected James Carter singing Po Lazarus. While the movie has more than a passing nod to Sullivan's Travels, it moves along at its own brisk pace, as the hapless trio seek its redemption via a series of obstacles that would have made old Preston Sturges smile.
