One of the worst?! Are you on drugs? The only mistake they made is dealing with fucking Netflix and not realising it in cinemas. This film would have been in the top 3 easily and won a lot of awards. It's such an original, fresh and beautiful crafted film. You sure fans of Coen brothers? You seem like haters. The acting, the writing, the locations, everything it's fucking perfect.

I just know that Miller's Crossing was, and still is, an underrated Coen Brother classic. The playful dialog used, the acting, cinematography and a story that demands second and third viewings to understand its true greatness? Not to mention the score that forever has been embedded in my brain like that 'hat in the wind.' Great, great film about survival and conscience, set in a Dashiell Hammett story, with Raymond Chandler language and Coen Bros humor. If you haven't seen this movie, watch it. If you have, watch it again if you felt you missed something, because you probably did. In doing so, the realization of its greatness for all the above reasons will continue to become evident in the process.

@Scotty St Cloud I agree Hail Caesar is absolutely their worst film till date(yes, worser than Ladykillers and Burn After Reading). That film looks like a badly made parody of all Coen Brothers films including additional parody of 50s Hollywood. The Coens are literally comparable to Stanley Kubrick in terms of greatness but fall short because of works like Hail Caesar, Ladykillers and Burn After Reading which are all good or maybe above average films for other directors but for them. Also their ignoring science fiction films while Kubrick made the best science fiction movie of all time.

@@hibbidyjibbidyy you could start with Inside Llewyn Davis, thats their most definitive work I have ever seen then go on to A Serious Man. After that go towards the westerns i.e. True Grit(remake but its better than the original, jmo), then No Country For Old Men( a western but a subvert), The Ballad of Buster Scruggs(totally a cinematographic masterpiece). Then probably their comedies like The Big Lebowski, etc. Miller's Crossing, Hudsucker Proxy are brilliant. And Barton Fink is again a masterpiece.

I love that goddamn movie so much. Relatedly, i only really appreciated how frequently my mom and i carry on whole conversations using movie quotes and references when, totally out of nowhere, she had a serious stroke. While she was in the ICU, we didn't know if she was going to have severe cognitive impairment or what. And, naturally, she was as soupy as you'd expect; "...maybe it was utah" became her kind of shorthand for acknowledging the days blurring together, and general confusion and delay that comes with losing a chunk of time. Haha, paradoxically enough, her penchant for incorporating good quotes into daily life had half of the hospital staff convinced that she was utterly off her fucking rocker.

Though 'Fargo' and 'No country for old men' are absolutely brilliant films, i personally think 'TRUE GRIT' is the coen brothers greatest film. People most often do not give it the recognition it deserves. To remake a classic and absolutely nail everything that made the first great is a hard task and when i watched the coens version i was amazed to see how good it actually was and i take my hat off to them for doing such a thing. My Opinion: True Grit (1969) - Focused and driven solely by John Wayne True Grit (2010) - Gave importance to all characters involved Hailee steinfeld was absolutely brilliant as Mattie Ross and deserved the oscar nod, Jeff bridges did his version of cogburn and came out in flying colors, Matt Damon played his part well. Great soundtrack and One of the best introductions to a movie's story. BRILLIANT! I did not compare the film with the earlier version like others normally do. This film by the coens on its own is a masterpiece and is currently my favorite movie of all time.

Agreed. Both Baron Fink and Miller's Crossing should be top 5 and vastly undervalued in general. Both of those movies woke me up to the Coen Brothers as being truly some of the best movie directors and writers ever.

They can do both comedy and drama... whereas guys like Tarantino can only do dark comedy and Nolan only drama. They are a very diverse director/writer combo.

"Burn After Reading" should be in the top five. Otherwise, not too bad, but "The Lady Killers" wasn't bad at all, though not as good as the original of the same name. "The Man Who Wasn't There" is also great.

I remember when I first saw "No Country". I was 14, and I came out of the movie saying it was one of the worst movies I've ever seen, mostly because I didn't understand the ending. Today, it's one of my favorite films. My top 10: 1 - No Country for Old Men 2 - True Grit 3 - The Man Who Wasn't There 4 - Fargo 5 - Big Lebowski 6 - Blood Simple 7 - A Serious Man 8 - Barton Fink 9 - Inside Llewyn Davis 10 - Burn After Reading

The Lady Killers is an awesome movie. A misunderstood, funny, and grossly under-appreciated exploration and celebration of the great American vernacular. It pisses me off that people don’t like it. Saying the movie sucks is like saying language sucks. All Coen brothers movies kick ass and the Ladykillers should be in their top 5.

God, how was A Serious Man not on the list? I thought it was widely critically acclaimed for how mature but also just perfect it was. Plus, I thought Barton Fink was just absurdly boring.
@JohnSpawn110 жыл бұрын
Really? For some reason I think A Serious Man and Barton Fink (their two most underrated great films) are quite similar in many ways. A Serious Man is basically Barton Fink with less surrealism and instead of Hollywood/writing the "jewish angle" is in the center.
@MrBeastknows10 жыл бұрын
Tom Waits Barton Fink was too surrealist and noir for me, despite the fact that I do like noir. I don't think it was the style, I just think it was the way it was shot and the acting that left me too bored to get through even half the movie. Another thing, I could never like grainy films for some reason, which always left me disliking many old noir films but loving Sin City and Watchmen, so, if I remember correctly, Barton Fink wasn't as sharp as A Serious Man, camera-wise.
@28purplehaze10 жыл бұрын
Tom Waits I personally see a lot of crossover between Fargo and A Serious Man. Larry Gopnik and Jerry Lundengaard are kinda the same Larry's fortune is decided by fate and he does little about it, whereas Jerry decides his own fate and it ends badly for him. I that's contrast, but it's just so similar the way it happens in both movies to both characters. Also both seem to have this motif of their office space and the interactions with people in their respective offices.
@28purplehaze10 жыл бұрын
Shane Benjamson A Serious Man has to be one the best looking movie's I've ever seen. It's colour palette alone is enough to keep my attention. The scene when Larry is on his roof top, fixing the antenna and looks out over the cookie cutter houses and neighbour as the sun sets is just the most perfect scene and so vibrant! Every scene where Larry is outside doing anything is just amazing!

I've only seen five of their films so far, and intend to watch more in future, but out of those five, I'd put them in this order 5. Blood Simple (while I really enjoyed this movie, I wouldn't even put it in the same catagory with their other films, and it's an overall forgetable film; I personally think that some of their other films I haven't seen are a lot better. Still enjoyable though) 4. O Brother, Where Art Thou? (I really liked this film for many reasons: the folk soundtrack, the unique and occasionally insane charecters, and the endless, but entertaining, subplots. I really liked it. And I mean: really liked it. But I just didn't feel as satisfied as I did with their other films) 3. Barton Fink (I love this film. This is actually on my top 10 favourite movies list. I love everything about it: its charecters, its story, its set design, its slow pacing, but most of all: its metaphors. It really depicts how fresh film writers are treated in Hollywood, and that's only one of the many metaphors buried within this eerie movie. Also, John Goodman's charecter, Charlie Meadows / Karl Mund is my favourite charecter of all time from any film) 2. Fargo (to be honest, I sort of feel bad putting this over a beutifully made masterpiece like Barton Fink, but I can't help it, I just love this movie that bit more. This is something of a perfect movie, i.e there's nothing wrong with it. I love how the story to this movie is so dark and serious, yet its charecters are all steriotypical Minnesotans (correct me if that's not the right term) with their large, distinctive accents. The charecters really sell this film for me, though; especially Marge Gunderson, who's also on my favourite charecters list. While it may not be as arthouse-like, clever, or insightful as Barton Fink, it's nothing short of a cinematic masterpiece) 1. The Big Lebowski (if you're still reading this, I'm proud of you. The Big Lebowski is my favourite movie of all time. I would, and probably will some time in later life, attend a "Lebowski Fest", which is were a bunch of Lebowski nuts, like myself, go and dress up as their favourite charecters and what have you. I love this movie to bits. Firstly, its charecters are more interesting than the entire cast of the Transformers movies put together. Damned Michael Bay, I never liked his films. Anyway, as you can see from my list, I really like my charecters, and the charecters in The Big Lebowski are no exception (Walter Sobchak being my favourite). Secondly, this movie has one of the most interesting soundtracks ever shown on screen. From Tumbleing Tumbleweeds to The Man in Me, each musical moment in The Big Lebowski is just as enjoyable as the last. Thirdly, the subplots. While TBL has a massive plot, with very little resolution, the subplots are by far the most memorable experiences from the film; which are factors to the main plot. Fourthly, the fact that there's no resolution. Many people like to complain that this movie is one, and I'm taking this phrase from the nostalgia critic here, "Big Lipped Aligator Moment", I personally think that the fact that there's no resolution makes the movie seem more realistic, and give the movie a moral that many people find it hard to find: sometimes it's good to just..... abide, keep your friends, and keep your hobbies, and go with the flow, no matter how many insane charecters you meet out there. I don't know about you, but I take comfort in that. That leaves us with one more point: it's extremely quotable: "Say what you like about the tenents of National Socialism, Dude, at least it's an ethos", "Shut the fuck up, Donnie", "You human paraquat", "calmer than you are", "Smokey, this is not 'Naam, there are rules", "The Dude Abides", "But sometimes there's a man....... Sometimes, there's a man....", "The Goddamn plane has crashed into the mountain", "Hey! There's a beverage here" etc. That about wraps it up. If you've read all this, then all I can say is: thank you so much. Please reply if you agree, disagree, or have any other good movie suggestions. Thank you).

Having a dishonorable mention is simply uncalled for. While I agree that Lady Killers - along with Miller's Crossing and Intolerable Cruelty - were bottom of the barrel projects for them, these movies still provide more than much craps set forth by Hollywood. All three are still fair to decent films, just not up to the standard we've come to expect from Joel and Ethan.

Lists are subjective of course, and the Coen Bros have created more Cult Films than anyone. IMHO: 1. Lebowski (best one-liners ever, character development that should be in the text book for actors, and one hellofa soundtrack. This Film defined a new genre. 2. No Country for Old Men and Fargo for the tie! How can either one be better than the other?? 3. Blood Simple. it amazes me how many people haven't even heard of this Film... and yes I love Raising Arizona, but don't come off claiming it's in the top 3 if you've never seen Blood Simple.
