This is one of the strangest yet most satisfying movie experiences of the year, one of those films in which you can't really appreciate what you've seen until it's over. You just have to trust that...
J. R. Jones
The broad, black humor of the Coens' early features has ripened over the years into a sadder, more philosophical brand of comedy (A Serious Man) that puts them in a class with Billy Wilder and...
Richard Roeper
The Coen brothers have crafted another unique period piece.
Lisa Kennedy
Celebrating and mourning a bygone moment, "Inside Llewyn Davis" is a tuneful wake intended to arouse us from our slumber to desires worth remembering.
James Adams
You don't end up rooting for Llewyn Davis because there's not much to root for. And this imparts a weird sort of impersonality or cold-bloodedness to the film's core.
Tom Long
In the end you feel Llewyn's pain even as you realize he is a pain. Llewyn Davis is nobody you'd want to be inside.

User reviews

Started ok Got boring, you could watch this in 2x fast forward and still understand it. Rotten Tomatoes, which is a harsh and brutal bunch of film critics, gave this movie a 94%... I have no idea what was in their glass pipe when they were watching this. This movie was repetitive and lost it's purpose half way through.
Waste of time and money. I am an avid folk music fan and movie lover but this movie was absolutely pointless. There is no point at all to this movie nor no deep seeded meaning. You wait for something significant to happen but nothing ever does. The ending? Lame. Seen the previews? Then you saw the movie.

A transport in time Saw this movie with my wife for a date night and we both really enjoyed it. A lighter piece by the Coen brothers and because of which any fan of their material make this piece worth your time. I found myself wishing the movie would not end when it came to a close. It takes me back to a time when my father used to play folk music on long road trips when I was younger. A must see film!
