O Brother, Where Art Thou? (7.6/10)

This is a 2000 comedy/crime film starring George Clooney. I liked the concept, but at times it felt a little too playful and silly for my taste. Overall, I still enjoyed it, but seeing it ranked as one of the New York Times’ Top 100 movies of the century felt like a bit of a shaky take to me. "Ulysses Everett McGill (George Clooney) is having difficulty adjusting to his hard-labor sentence in Mississippi. He scams his way off the chain gang with simple Delmar (Tim Blake Nelson) and maladjusted Pete (John Turturro), then the trio sets out to pursue freedom and the promise of a fortune in buried treasure. With nothing to lose and still in shackles, their hasty run takes them on an incredible journey of awesome experiences and colorful characters."
