This is one of the worst films I have ever seen.
George Clooney is a great actor when he stars in a good (or even mediocre) film. But in many respects he reminds me of Steve McQueen; whenever he takes a role in a poor film, his presence alone is not enough to carry the story, and he is very poor at comedy or self parody.
"Oh Brother..." is a perfect example of a bad film that George Clooney cannot save. The acting is juvenile, the story is dreary and rambling and the only good aspect, the title song, is only sung once or twice.
Disappointing all around.
