Editorial Review: Product Description: Sparks fly when brilliant divorce attorney miles massey meets his match in the beautiful but ruthless marilyn. A hilarious romantic comedy about men women and everything that can go wrong between them. Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 05/23/2006 Starring: George Clooney Catherine Zeta Jones Run time: 100 minutes Rating: Pg13 Amazon.com: A sleek George Clooney and a seductive Catherine Zeta-Jones square off magnificently in the divorce comedy Intolerable Cruelty. The plot is simple: Lawyer supreme Miles Massey (Clooney, Out of Sight, Ocean's Eleven) skillfully outmaneuvers gold-digger Marylin Rexroth (Zeta-Jones, Chicago, Traffic) when she divorces her wealthy husband--and she sets out to get revenge. But this movie comes from the creative minds of the Coen Brothers (Fargo, Raising Arizona, O Brother Where Art Thou?), and so Intolerable Cruelty includes a Scottish wedding chapel in Vegas, an asthmatic hit man, fluffy-dog-stroking European nobility, and a legendarily unbreakable pre-nuptial agreement. Still, it's pretty restrained for the Coens; smooth and consistent, it never stumbles as disappointingly as their movies can, but also never quite hits the operatic pitch of their best work. It's still damn funny, though, with top-notch performances from the leads as well as Geoffrey Rush, Cedric the Entertainer, and Billy Bob Thornton. --Bret Fetzer Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Lower your expectations and enjoy itConsidering that the majority of reviews are 1 star, one would think this was "Are We There Yet?" or "Cat in the Hat" (the Mike Myers version) awful. Please people. I realize that movie goers have come to expect brilliance from the Coen brothers at every turn, but this is far from the wretched mess so many people claim. It reminds me of the movies from years long past that were simply charming, cute, and easy to digest. Add the sharp wit, predictable slapstick, and fondness for romantic sentiment ...

Being that this film is a Coen Brother's film, I guess I was just expecting a little more umph to this film and in the end I just never got it. Sure there were fun scenes, which could only be from a Coen Brother's mind. There was also plenty of twists as well, but for me the twists were obvious and practical next steps to the storyline. In the end, and ... Read More Rating: - CleverI enjoyed every minute of it. It was a very clever movie and well done. Just when I thought I had figured it out, it would take a turn in another direction. Rating: - I Love A Funny Movie....and this is a funny movie. "Now Mrs Gutman, do you know a man named David Gonzales?" "Well, he's the tennis pro at the club.." "The tennis pro? Then why are your letters addressed to him 'Dear David and Goliath'? Clooney is gleeful and effervescent as divorce attorney Miles Masey; I don't know how he manages to give such beleivable (and humorous) little touches to the different characters he plays in the Cohen movies. He really becomes a different person, and it's ... Read More Rating: - Cynical funA cynical, fun movie. It is dependent on the idea of marrying people for the money that you will receive in the eventual divorce settlement (50% in California). Maybe better as a rental than a purchase as I am not sure that I will watch it again. Browse for similar items by category:
