this movie is just like george clooney gets hit in the face with a branch: [sad folk music] high elves appear: [mystical folk music] kkk member gets obliterated: [upbeat folk music] cow on a roof: [melancholic folk music]

First time watching it since it came out. People these days wouldn't believe the strangehold this had on the culture in the early 2000s. They had little kids like me bobbing their heads to bluegrass and renting Coen brothers movies from Jumbo Video. Not my favorite Coen…

Everything about this movie comes together perfectly: the script, acting, music, story… everything. A true masterpiece by the Coen Bros. I could rewatch this all day. Just solid in every way.
fem film bro likedO Brother, Where Art Thou?- Feel good movie - Funny - My parents watched this a lot when I was little, so nostalgic - Not a fan of the misogyny and writing of female characters
Luksa Horinek lovedO Brother, Where Art Thou?I was seriously surprised that not many people know about this movie! Second surprise came in when I realized how underrated it is! This is one of the easiest “loves” in this app and I think that everyone should try it! Music, acting, directing goes together just so well. A must!
- Casey Helenski lovedO Brother, Where Art Thou?
this is my first time watching the movie, I loved it, the plot was fun to follow, the characters were well developed, acted and funny, but I personally think the ending could have been better. it felt like it was just a sort of "fade to black" ending, but there was resolution.
Hans Pudritz lovedO Brother, Where Art Thou?No matter what life is giving you, just keep smiling and follow along. Basically every scene says that and after the film you will feel better about life and its tricks. Good cast, some good comedic elements, incredible music just incredible ❤️
Weasty likedO Brother, Where Art Thou?72/100. Very funny and has quite a journey, but seems EXTREMELY fast paced and almost cut-off at times. Need more buildup and explanation on HOW they escaped. Also, don’t mock God. That isn’t as funny as some people think.
- Edward Kronkvist likedO Brother, Where Art Thou?
Just a great and funny film with a good cast. The story was a very entertaining one and I really didn’t know how the film would end. Also George Nelson was a wholesome character that stole every scene he was in.
Andre likedO Brother, Where Art Thou?The klan meeting really caught me off guard i ain’t gone hold you 💀 but other than that i surprisingly really enjoyed this movie it’s not my typically go to at all! also kinda love the soundtrack 🙊 8/10

For all its originality, O Brother doesn't seem to have a point, or enough spark to distract us from the lack thereof.
Michael Atkinson
Mr. Showbiz
A remarkable film. From its performances on down to director of photography Roger Deakins' sun-baked, dirty-ochre cinematography, the film is all of a piece.
Marc Savlov
Austin Chronicle
For all its ambitions, though, the Coens' odyssey is a scattershot affair with too many tricks and twists for its own good.
