Ok… I just finished the movie Intolerable Cruelty.

Its a pathetic (but humorous) story about divorce. George Clooney is a divorce attorney and Catherine Zeta-Jones is a woman out to divorce a rich husband (but she has to marry one first). I think these talented actors decided to do this film because they were bored. When you watch them on screen you get the distinct impression they are doing this because they had nothing else to do at the time. But at the same time their take on it is so casual you cant help but enjoy the film for what it’s worth (which isn’t much). The Coen brothers directed and it feels very much like their other films… somewhat made up as they went along. But if you’re interested in something that requires no thought and evokes no emotion, but occasionally gives a good laugh then this is an ok movie for you :-)
