EYE FROM THE RIGHT: "HAIL, CAESAR!" BY THE COEN BROTHERS

Contemporary Media seen from the Right


by Richard Wolstencroft
The short version: This is a hateful piece of crap from the Coen Brothers, riffing on old Hollywood.
The soulless cinematic siblings make three kinds of films: crime (which they do rather well), comedy (which they do rather poorly), and religious/metaphysical musings (which vary from so-so to poor). This, their latest effort, is a combination  of the latter two categories – a weak comedy with a bit off metaphysical nonsense thrown in. That's what you're in for with Hail, Caesar!
