Screwball comedy for older teens and adults.September 24, 2007
This is the Coens dabbling in the mainstream, and bending it to their will.February 09, 2006
Inventive and hilarious.September 26, 2006
As Miles, Clooney doesn't make any direct emotional appeal to the audience and yet his high style is so smashingly effective that Miles stands open to us: macher, lover, patsy.October 16, 2003
This dim-witted, mean-spirited and brain-dead calamity should surprise no one.November 07, 2007
The Coens do an efficient job of stamping their signature grotesquerie on sumptuous Beverly Hills and Las Vegas settings and ladling on gallows humor and malice, sometimes with the verve of early Robert Zemeckis.October 13, 2003
[T]here's a lot of problems with the script, and some of the stuff with Edward Herrmann I don't think works at all, it's not funny it just kind of falls flat. But Clooney and Catherine Zeta-Jones, I think they deliver enough to say it's worth seeing.October 23, 2003
The Coen Brothers do provide enough of a diversion with bits and pieces of wacko casting, and with the deranged details of dress and makeup of their fleeting gargoyles, to make the proceedings at least moderately amusing.May 06, 2008
A competent bit of work from which striking originality and idiosyncrasy have mostly been pruned away.December 06, 2005
Destined to rank among the Coens' least memorable achievements.October 13, 2009
Here's an anomaly: a comedy about smart people.December 30, 2006
The Coensâ(TM) first mainstream romantic comedy is a superb hijacking of an ailing art form -- short, sharp and frequently laugh-out-loud hilarious.
