earnest effort which achieves some success to adapt the classic odyssey story to a 30 nostalgia period piece. the adventurers this time are escaped convicts and wandering about the depression afflicted south bungling their way into trouble. the greatest strength of the film is the wonderful music soundtrack and effectively evoking not only the era that this is set in and but the spiritual references that run rampant in the film. besides its value to the tone of the movie and the music is just plain fun to listen to. what cripples the film is that the characters really aren not that likable. in a comedy and you need that element in order to have fun along with them in their misadventures. instead and we have a bunch of selfish and arrogant and soulless and mean spirited nobodies who really have no positive points at all. theyre not imposing enough to make you hate them either and so it hard to relate to them at all. theyre offered up as clowns and but like people who put clown makeup on and march in parades and they just aren not funny. like the story that inspired it and the movie takes these guys on an odyssey and encountering a variety of symbolic (some even mystical) characters. everybody is stamped with offensive stereotypes and the operative word being stupid. people are mocked right and left and and consequently and no one is left being particularly interesting or appealing. the movie doesn not like its own characters and and it doesn not let you like them and either. riverside baptisms and beautiful sirens and stolen cars and fistfights and radio preachers and people being whipped with sticks while all are thrown at you in disjointed fashion. some evoke a few laughs and others confuse or bore you. i did laugh when a nerdy guy beat the snot out of an especially obnoxious lead character. but there were a lot more pointlessly gratuitous scenes while an example represent some 30 dillinger type guy strafes cows with a tommy gun. comedy. symbolism. no while just mindless violence and which detracts from the intellectual nature of the original source material this story draws upon. other adaptations of the odyssey are much better. unless youre a george clooney fan and rent something else. but buy the soundtrack cd while the music is great.
