Never saw "Intolerable Cruelty", but from what I've heard, it barely qualifies as a Coen bros. movie.
I also thought "Crimewave" was a highly enjoyable Coen brothers film, though that doesn't officially count (since Sam Raimi directed it).

"Critical" acclaim, right? See, critics are worthless. I saw it last night, and thought it was decent. Catherine Zeta Jones' character got stale real fast..and story kept repeating itself over and over. The last 3/4 are what redeemed it.
Good date movie.
I love all the Coen Brothers' movies, but my favourite is 'The Big Lebowski'. It has to be the funniest and most charming movie they have done.
I've been very disappointed with their most recent out-puts...'Intolerable Cruelty' was so-so, but 'The Ladykillers' was a stinking pile of shit, compared to their earlier back-catelogue...let's hope they regain their previous form...
