Title: Seinfeld without a punch line
Product review: It's amazing to me how much hype this movie has gotten, as well as all the deep meaning people have managed to pull from it. I found it to be droll at best, and downright pretentious at its worst. Basically, just like the series Seinfeld, "A Serious Man" is about nothing. That's it - nothing. The only problem is that the movie even lacks a punch line, something that the series Seinfeld made sure to deliver. I'm sure that the Coen brothers are laughing to themselves at all of the profoundly Earth-shattering "truths" that people are falling all over themselves to extract from this pointless movie.You want a "deep" movie that explores the random and existential nature of life, and yet reveals what really lurks in the hearts of men and women? Get a copy of "Leben der Anderen" and watch it instead.
