I'm a big Coen brothers fan but I never got around to watching The Ladykillers until last night. I didn't hate it but it deserves its reputation as their worst film. A few of the characters were annoying, especially Lump. As a comedy of errors it just didn't have any good laughs, although I did get a chuckle out of the dead husband's painting.
Don't bother watching unless you're a completist.
