Über diesen Film

Academy Award(R)-winning Tom Hanks turns in a hilariously original performance in THE LADYKILLERS, the laugh-out-loud comedy that explodes with outrageous wit and slapstick humor from the Coen Brothers. Underneath Professor G.H. Dorr's (Hanks) silver-tongued southern gentleman persona is a devious criminal who has assembled a motley gang of thieves to commit the heist of the century by tunneling through his churchgoing landlady's root cellar to a casino's vault of riches. But these cons are far from pros. As their scheme begins blowing up in their faces, their landlady smells a rat. And when she threatens to call the police, they figure they'll just bump her off. After all, how hard can that be? Wickedly funny from start to finish, it would be a crime to miss THE LADYKILLERS.

Bewertungen und Rezensionen

Tom hanks as always plays a great role. Every minute of the film is packed with comedy. My favourite scene has to be at the begging in the sheriff's department. My nan prefers the old version instead of this remake, but I think this is great.

Why remake !!?,?. Why can't they come up with new ideas ?!! This film is classic in its original form . Sad .

If you have seen the original then you understand why this is a classic
