A Serious Man (5.8/10)

I was honestly a bit bored and annoyed by almost every character in this film. It’s ranked in the top 100 movies of this century, and I’d have to agree with the Rotten Tomatoes audience score sitting in the 60% range. The acting was strong and I liked the overall plot, but it just didn’t fully hit for me. "Larry Gopnik (Michael Stuhlbarg) is a physics professor at a 1960s university, but his life is coming apart at the seams. His wife (Sari Lennick) is leaving him, his jobless brother (Richard Kind) has moved in, and someone is trying to sabotage his chances for tenure. Larry seeks advice from three different rabbis, but whether anyone can help him overcome his many afflictions remains to be seen."
