Coens are real pros. They can recreate an era like no others. I was very much looking forward to this, because I love this era of music. And the music was really great. Even Justin Timberlake singing 500 Miles was great.
But this is more or less a character study of a reprehensible human being. And all the side characters are cool and quirky in the Coen way, like the John Goodman jazz guy, and his taciturn valet. But the side characters didn't add up to much.
I respected the absolute skill of the film making, but I did not really enjoy this.
