And if you don't like it, I will tilt my nose in the air at you. I'm artsy.
shareI like it and I'm smart, but I'm not artsy at all. It's a great comedy, maybe the best ever made. It also has a lot of great bluegrass music, which artsy types despise.
shareYou really dont have to be that smart to enjoy it. Its a basic character arc story where the main protagonist spends the whole film looking to get rich from treasure, only to realize his redemption lies with his family, and becoming his kids father again.
shareThat and cutting a chart topping record.

"You don't have to be that smart to enjoy it"
That explains its popularity.
In spite of the fact that I get everything in the movie, I found it underwhelming, and bluegrass makes my ears bleed. I also get a little motion sickness whenever I watch George Clooney's bobbling head for too long.
shareYeah, it's not that great a film. Like so many of the Coens' films, it's what I call an "interesting failure".
It might have been genuinely good, with some tweaks to the script and a different leading man. Clooney never seemed as if he actually belonged there, he looked like an actor trying to play against type, and having fun with the attempt but still failing. What the film needed was a man who actually seemed like he was from the American South, and who lived in the early 20th century.
This is a fair assessment, imo. I like Clooney a lot, but how he fit in this film is worth questioning.
A great movie in a lot of ways, but has flaws.
But Bluegrass is for Deplorables!
shareI don't see anything smart about the movie.
But it's damn fun and well made, with amazing characters and a great story ...
