Hmmm

I think Hanks is a good comic actor who needs to revisit his roots. I didn't think he looked or sounded so ridiculous, but then I've only seen the preview in passing.

As for the Coen Brothers, you're right. They don't deserve their currency. Fargo broke them, and I suppose that was dererved, though their best films were already behind them. But everything after has seemed to me to be their selling out to the worst possible caricature of their former work, and it all begins with the writing. No film is so tight or well-conceived as Miller's Crossing (far and away their best film), Barton Fink, or the Hudsucker Proxy (though the latter suffers under some strained performaces if not just from the casting--hard to know exactly where to place the blame).

I gave up on them years ago.
