i hated the movie, just because i felt bad for the main character. could you imagine being in his situation? cheating wife? fuck up kids? lawsuits? during every scene i wanted him to buy a gun and slaughter everyone

I honestly don't know what people are talking about when they say "sit through". . . I honestly found this movie engaging from beginning to end, you never know where the Coen Brothers are going to take the movie.

@Grendo147 actually there are multiple metaphors being portrayed throughout the film. One is the book of Job; the other is the concept of a quote in the movie that stated how Jews gain strength and faith from all of the stories that they have passed down through generations, but in actuality the messages in the stories, such as the zeitgeist are nothing more than amazingly good catch-alls for a broad array of problems and that there are no ways to explain truly unique situations like Clive's.

Cant believe this movie gets hate because people don't get it. What is hard to get about it ? It's about a man trying to find the answers to the direction his life has gone in, yet there are no answers. Simple.

a piece of art.
To everyone who says because of the ending the film has no point, or that it's hard to watch because it's slow moving. Shut up. It does have a point, and just because you can't sit through it does not make it bad. However, this film is definitely more for those people who appreciate film as an art form, rather than simply a level of entertainment.

Their last film? No Country? Wasn't it Burn After Reading?
