Suburbicon finds frequent Coen Brothers
collaborator George Clooney doing his best impersonation of the filmmaking
siblings. Actually, I hope it’s not his best impersonation or we’ve got
problems. Behind the camera, Clooney so obviously apes his pals that his film
has no personality of its own.

George Clooney's 'Suburbicon' Trailer Is Wicked And Hilarious
Not content with being a huge star, aging more gracefully
than any human ever to live, and selling his tequila brand for a billion dollars, George Clooney continues to make the rest of us mere mortals look like
turds by directing movies. His latest, the Coen Brothers-scripted
Suburbicon is one we’ve been keeping an eye on. The first
trailer just dropped and it’s pretty much what you expect, and I mean that in a
good way. Check it out.

Blu-Ray/DVD Review: 'Inside Llewyn Davis' Criterion Collection
While much of the recent conversation about the work of Joel
and Ethan Coen has centered around their latest movie, the recently released
Hail, Caesar!, it’s also a good time to look a few years
back to their last film, Inside Llewyn Davis. Criterion just
dropped a packed new Blu-ray/DVD that fans will absolutely want to pick up.

Movie Review: The Coen Brothers' 'Hail, Caesar!'
Any time Joel and Ethan Coen make a movie, it’s going to be
an event that captures my attention, and such is case with Hail, Caesar!. A bouncy, energetic dalliance into the Hollywood studio
system of the 1950s, this is a well-meaning romp full of whip-cracking dialogue
that only the Coens can pull off, homages to the classic genres of yesteryear,
and quirky characters that would become stilted in the hands of any other
filmmakers.

'Inside Llewyn Davis' Movie Review
Llewyn Davis (Oscar Isaac) is a special kind of asshole.
He’ll borrow money from you to pay for your girlfriend’s abortion, your
girlfriend that he knocked up. That’s assuming that you are in fact Justin
Timberlake and you’re dating Carey Mulligan, but you get the idea. He’s also
the protagonist of the Coen Brothers’ latest film, “Inside Llewyn Davis,” and
the greatest feat the “True Grit” filmmakers accomplish is making you
sympathize with this miserable, miserable prick as they delve deep into his
psyche.
