I'm a big Cohen brothers fan, but this movie stinks. What were they thinking! A serious man is a seriously boring movie that never gets off the ground.

Boring and pointless

Worst movie I have seen in years. The main character is pathetic and never matures, he only endures. Sadly, I endured, too, and watched it until the end. I wish I had le... Full Review
