2017 Directed by George Clooney
In the quiet family town of Suburbicon during the 1950s, the best and worst of humanity is hilariously reflected through the deeds of seemingly ordinary people. When a home invasion turns deadly, a picture-perfect family turns to blackmail, revenge and murder.

just because you're in some Coen brothers movies doesn't mean you can make a Coen brothers movie
the 5 minutes of screen time that julianne moore & oscar isaac shared: great! 👍🏽⭐️💯☺️
the other 99 minutes: bad! 👎🏽💣❌😴
Not particularly funny, insightful, or well constructed, and the first half is a complete bore with very little in the way of effective buildup. Then the always incredible Oscar Isaac shows up, and he singlehandedly provides the film with a healthy ass kicking all the way through its conclusion. He more than Clooney seems to embrace the zany energy that the brothers bring to even their lower tier scripts, and he does so much with so little that you're left wondering why the film didn't revolve around him. Nevertheless, the mini crescendo jumpstarted by his character at the end is a lot of fun to watch, and there's a dark absurdity to some of the images that oozes Coen brothers…
It's important to reflect on your life sometimes and count your blessings. For instance, today I'm incredibly grateful that this movie is only 104 minutes.
Idk what's with Julianne Moore playing these women who pretend to be perfectly normal but are secretly high-key psychotic but the fact that I'm not against it may be the universe trying to tell me something.
Possibly the most tin-eared thing ever. Exactly as sharp a satire of American values as you'd expect from a movie named SUBURBICON.
There are two stories sharing the screen in Suburbicon. Like the characters in the film, they make very poor neighbors.

Oscar Isaac accepting a role in this garbage film just to have a scene with Julianne Moore: i’m doing it for the gays
Suburbicon has strong performances, good intentions, plenty of ambition, and admirable things to say, but unfortunately, it doesn't quite gel together because it tries to do way too much (the two stories present, one being a darkly comic murder mystery noir and the other being a social satire and commentary on racism, barely connect with one another, and it reeks of two different scripts being randomly shoved together into one), and director George Clooney's loud, angry approach to the material ends up working against it.
Llegaron los 40 minutos y me dije a mi mismo "esto parece una copia a los Cohen" y definitivamente estaban en el guión.
"Please... keep the curtains closed."
A home invasion leads to a murder, which leads to nowhere in particular, on the scenic route, at a deathly pace, in this film from a Coen brothers' first draft script, seemingly abandoned as being without potential, and requiring a far defter touch than Clooney's (as co-writer and director) to make it work.
Everything essential seems in place, from a solid and capable cast working well, to excellent period production and costume design, and beautiful lighting and cinematography, but a refusal in the first act—and much of the second—to offer anything against which to situate these discordant and disparate elements of plot, character and tone leaves the audience flailing for elements of sympathy or empathy,…
while i usually agree that the more julianne moores, the merrier, this film acts as a definite disproval of this theory
strange... that one scene with julianne moore and oscar isaac was the only thing i remember and the only thing that was good
Julianne Moore: 😊💕😋😗💫
Matt Damon: 😐🤜🏻
I spent 30% of this movie looking at my phone so my opinions are just 70% valid
You would think that a man that has spent so much time with the Coens would know how to rip them off.
