This alone renders any other opinions you have as worthless.
And it's Llewyn. Get the goddamned title right at least.

That's how much I hated the movie. Can't even remember the correct spelling 
This is a subjective list, as art is the most subjective form of all, hence I might consider your opinions worthless. But they are your opinions, and worth something to you. At least we can both agree on loving The Shadow, coming again on blu ray!

lol, true enough. Although I don't see how even the most disappointing Coen bros. film could make a ten worst of any given year.

Believe me, it did mine. Mean-spirited, obnoxious, unnecessarily vulgar, hateful characters, and beyond annoying music, all tied up with a ridiciously pretentious ending. I felt like I wanted to smash the guitar out of his hands, a la Bluto Blutarski. And I know I have several people who'd back me up. I did love John Goodman, and the "sing for your supper" scene, but that is truly it. I really run hot and cold on the Coens, especially when it comes to such unbearable critical darlings O Brother. Hudsucker and Arizona are far more my speed.
If you want to see two particularly great, and neglected period recreations that do wonders with obnoxious characters, watch On the Road and Kill Your Darlings.
