The Film Cynics » A Serious Man http://thefilmcynics.com/audioblog Welcome to the podcast for the modern movie watcher. The Film Cynics were once a pair of surly video store clerks that eventually worked their way into the biz. After bouncing around in the industry for a while, they decided to stay true to the adage of: Those who can’t do, teach. And those who can’t find teaching jobs, create websites so they can spout off about movies and TV and anything in pop culture that catches their short attention spans. In our podcast you’ll be able to tune into our radio show on CFAX 1070. Tue, 08 Mar 2011 16:08:25 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.4 Welcome to the podcast for the modern movie watcher.

Is their assemblage up to the task up triumphing over the other box sets?

The Coen Brothers’ semi-autobiographical story about life in Minneapolis in the 60′s tries to examine whether there’s any divine meaning to our lives – maybe they should have tried to make a good movie.

So besides our opening commentary about the Oscar nominations, we have reviews for the Coen Brothers’ semi-autobiographical A Serious Man, Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau’s “passion” project Couples Retreat and Eric Bana’s temporally challenged romantic adaptation The Time Traveller’s Wife. You won’t believe which one we liked best until you hear it, and even then you might not believe it. We round out the show with our Picks from the Vault, One Week and The Last Boy Scout and then trailer suggestions for The Losers and Cemetery Junction.
