Film: The Ladykillers

There's really only been one review of The Ladykillers, the latest film from the Coen brothers. And there's good reason for it: there's not much else to say.

So I'll be boring and agree: it's a good film, but not their best. I can't tell you how it compares to the original, so you'll have to rely on other reviews for that.

On the plus side, the gags you anticipate are presented with such pace and force that you can't help but laugh. Isn't this what slap-stick is all about?
