Editorial Reviews

Disenchanted with the daily drudge of crushing rocks on a prison farm in Mississippi, the dapper, silver-tongued Ulysses Everett McGill (George Clooney, THE PERFECT STORM) busts loose. Except he's still shackled to his own chain-mates from the chain gang -- bad-tempered Pete (John Turturro, SUMMER OF SAM), and sweet, dimwitted Delmar (Tim Blake Nelson, HAMLET). With nothing to lose and buried loot to regain -- before it's lost forever in a flood -- the three embark on the adventure of a lifetime in this hilarious offbeat road picture. Populated with strange characters, including a blind prophet, sexy sirens, and a one-eyed Bible salesman (John Goodman, COYOTE UGLY), it's an odyssey filled with chases, close calls, near misses, and betrayal that will leave you laughing at every outrageous and surprising twist and turn.

5.0 out of 5 starsMen Of Constant Sorrow
By prisrob TOP 100 REVIEWERVINE VOICE on September 4, 2016
Format: Amazon Video Verified Purchase
The brilliance of the Coen brothers is once again evident in this film. We know not where we are traveling, but it looks like a good time.

We meet three men escaping from a chain gang, somewhere in Mississippi and sometime in the depression years. George Clooney, the leader who elected himself is Everett McGill, the other two men are chained to him, so he had to invite them along, Pete played by John Tirturro, and Delmar played by Blake Nelson. Their adventures are the stuff this film is made of, and we go along.

Everett is a talker and gets them into and out of trouble on a daily basis. Everett is obsessed with his pomade and his hair. He will do almost anything to find his pomade and a hairnet for nighttime use. One after another they run into money and then lose it. They make a record and it becomes a hit, which is the way to their freedom. 'A man of constant sorrow' is true in more ways than one.

The film keeps our attention, and if asked to choose a favorite scene it would be the KKKlan scene. You really need to see this one. The depression brings no money, less food, scrambling to keep heads above water, loss of farms and the truly poor. This film hits as many points as possible. Satire and irony are apparent throughout the film, and it will bring a smile or three.

The soundtrack sold more copies than most other films and was asked for more often than the film. Great character actors and great acting.

4.0 out of 5 starsA MOVIE TO WATCH OVER, AND OVER AGAIN
By Cesar Diaz on December 9, 2014
Format: Blu-ray Verified Purchase
I cannot say I'm a fan of the Coen brothers' work, but I like very much at least half of their films. For me, it all depends on a combination of three criteria:
1) all of their films are among the finest lessons of filmmaking technique you'll find in contemporary cinema. The technical achievement is taller every once in a while, so much so that you can consider the Coens as true "authors".
2) A lot of their work is fun to watch while you watch it. If it is not fun, there's always the chance
3) that it leaves a fine "aftertaste".
That said, this film is the only one of theirs that I've bought in every new format since its release in 2000. I consider myself a fan of "The Big Lebowski", but I don't feel the need to upgrade my Special Edition DVD of that one because it's not so bold as far as cinematography is concerned. This one, though, marks high in my three criteria, which means it always benefits from new and higher resolution transfers, like the one on this BD. This is as close as you can be to the 2K digital intermediate the Coens used for post-production and color timing, which means it would't get a lot better even if 4K became a viable home video format in the near future (If you'd like to know what I mean, I suggest you read this: https://www.theasc.com/magazine/oct00/brother/pg1.htm). My only regret is the surprising lack of extras, which is sad for a film with so much value in so many departments.

By OleMissFan on July 3, 2016

Movie itself is top notch. Deserves 6 stars. Blu ray transfer is the issue

First disc I purchased had major issues. You pause then play and the information window (which shows both movie time and movie state: i.e. paused, playing etc) would not go away and still showed movie as paused. Stopping the disc would not allow me to restart disc. Just wouldn't play again. Only way to get movie to play was to turn off blu ray player and restart movie from closes chapter.
I am using a Marantz blu ray player and checked to make sure firmware was up to date and it was.

I called Disney who agreed to exchange the disc out with a fresh new copy.

New copy arrives several weeks later and still exhibits the same issues.

My player has no other issues playing any other blu ray disc and I have many of them.

I can only assume the issue is specific to this transfer.

Boo!!

5.0 out of 5 starsThe Strangest, Best, Love Story
By Honeybelle on May 30, 2015
Format: Amazon Video Verified Purchase
I wasn't very keen to watch this movie; I just couldn't understand what it was about from the previews, other than a movie about the depression. But everyone kept saying it was great, and it had George Clooney, so I finally watched it. It pulled me in from the first moment. It is smart, hilarious and fast paced. The characters are well acted and oddball in a way that is distinctly Coen brothers. Of course, as with all of their movies, I was immersed immediately into another time and place...Coen style. I was enjoying this movie but had no idea where it was going, if anywhere. What I finally realized, is that it is a love story. What kind of love story, I'll let you discover. This movie has one of my all time favorite scenes of any movie. If you've seen it, you can probably guess the scene. We had to watch that scene again and again to see the look on George Clooney's face. We also bought the soundtrack. Years later our entire family still watches this movie and quotes the lines frequently to each other. Sometimes we just cue up that scene when we need a pick me up. I can't recommend this movie highly enough, but then we all have the sane type of sense of humor in our family. If you don't like other movies by these guys, you probably won't like this one either.

5.0 out of 5 starsA fly in the ointment.
By Amazon Customer on February 20, 2016
Format: Amazon Video Verified Purchase
This retelling of Homer's Ulysses is superb in all aspects although it required two watchings for me to totally enter into the mood of it and reach the level of enthusiasm I now have for it.
I saw it when it came out and purchased the music cd of it at that time. Then, lately, I rented it through Amazon and without really trying, ended up watching it three times during the rental period. I could have purchased the HD for $12.99 but did not anticipate being drawn to it as I have been.
Through liking it so much and finding it so easily rewatchable, I decided to purchase it.
I'm happy that I now have my own copy.
I would like to register my feelings of a fly in the ointment, however. After my multiple viewings of this masterpiece, I went to purchase and found the price was now $17.99.
It displeased me.
A big reason for my appreciation of it should also be noted. I was born in Oklahoma less than four years after the time depicted, @July 1,1937. and greatly enjoyed the nostalgic remembrances the movie evoked in me.
