One ordinary man's quest to become a serious man. Physics professor Larry Gopnik can't believe his life, His wife is leaving him for his best friend, his unemployed brother won't move off the couch, someone is threatening his career, his kids are a mystery and his neighbor is tormenting him by sunbathing nude. Struggling to make sense of it all, Larry consults three different rabbis and their answers lead him on a twisted journey of faith, family, delinquent behavior, and mortality.
Blu-ray disc, widescreen; DTS; requires Blu-ray player.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

So Good submitted by jibkidder on July 25, 2022, 10:53am Among the few movies I have seen 3 times in the theater. This is by far my favorite Coen Bros. movie. Its balance of kitsch and black comedy are perfect.

Not for me submitted by brooksza on July 31, 2022, 3:50pm It's thought-provoking but overall the movie doesn't make a ton of sense to me. Yes, I get the morality tales at times but the subtext was often lost on me. It just felt like a movie about a sad sack where bad things happen.

The movie looked great though especially the shots of Larry in front of the class, in the meeting with the lawyers in front of the books and the Bar Mitzvah.
