Review of Intolerable Cruelty (2003)

By Claudia Puig (2,080) for USA Today (4,117) on 15 Dec 2008

Review of Intolerable Cruelty (2003)

By Rick Kisonak (485) for Film Threat (5,156) on 19 Jul 2008

This is a decidedly hit or miss deal which, despite the current outpouring of critical praise, is destined to rank among the Coen's least memorable…

Review of Intolerable Cruelty (2003)

By Damon Wise (265) for Empire Magazine (3,326) on 30 Dec 2006

Review of Intolerable Cruelty (2003)

Elegant, cheerfully cynical fun of the kind we used to get regularly from Billy Wilder, Howard Hawks and other masters of the classic Hollywood…

Review of Intolerable Cruelty (2003)

By Louis-Jérôme Cloutier (56) for Panorama (165) on 16 Dec 2004

Review of Intolerable Cruelty (2003)

By Kenneth Turan (2,323) for Los Angeles Times (12,977) on 11 Dec 2004

So clever, so funny, so suavely entertaining that it comes as a shock to realize that it's not nearly as satisfying as all those qualities…

Review of Intolerable Cruelty (2003)

By Tony Medley (1,109) for tonymedley.com (461) on 06 Oct 2004

Review of Intolerable Cruelty (2003)

By Jack Mathews (1,044) for New York Daily News (5,623) on 05 Sep 2004

By Nathan Rabin (1,078) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 21 Feb 2004

Review of Intolerable Cruelty (2003)

By Eric D. Snider (2,489) for EricDSnider.com (2,026) on 04 Nov 2003
