Sinopsis(1)
Miles Massey es un famoso abogado de Los Ángeles especializado en casos de divorcio. Su hastío a causa del éxito termina cuando conoce a Marylin Rexroth, la esposa de un rico constructor cliente de Miles, al que tiene atrapado por una infidelidad gracias a las pesquisas de un detective. Sin embargo la habilidad de Miles en su oficio hace que Marylin no reciba ni un sólo dolar. Pero Marylin, lejos de desanimarse, decide pagarle con la misma moneda: planea casarse con el multimillonario petrolero Howard Doyle. (United International Pictures)

The combination of the Coen brothers and (un)traditional romantic comedy works surprisingly well, mainly thanks to the central spiking duo. There’s nothing unforgettable, but the film is very entertaining. The question remains whether "only" a solid respite film is not a bit too little for filmmakers of Coens’ calibre...

When bizarre supporting characters flood Clooney's narcissistic quotes and Zeta's incredibly gorgeous creature, not only is entertainment provided, but also a gem. Divorces, assets, or legal tricks are a part of calm black comedy, but true love is the very ingredient that makes Krutost (Cruelty) my beloved film. A royal spectacle.

Fast, funny, and intelligent, just as we are used to with the Coen brothers. Their intelligent and unique humor, they will certainly please rather than the other way around. George Clooney is quite charismatic, and even actors like Geoffrey Rush or Billy Bob Thornton won't go unnoticed.

I love the Coens’ crime movies, but not their comedies. They have a strange sense of humour that I, an ordinary fan, probably have no chance to understand. George Clooney is fine as a successful and greedy lawyer, and Catherine is always awfully lovely to look at, but their love escapades mostly bored me rather than made me kick back and relax. At least it is saved for a while by Billy Bob Thornton, who again excels and climbs higher and higher in my acting rankings, unlike this romantic comedy. 60%

Ztřeštěná a ujetá komedie se spoustou úžasných figurek a ztracených existencí, jimž vévodí Sípák. Bohužel se bratří Coenové nevyhnuli americkým klišé, na něž jsem už vysloveně alergický, když musím některé scény s potleskem vestoje vidět po tisícípadesátédruhé. Chemie Clooney-Zeta-Jones ale funguje náramně, Paul Adelstein karikuje sám sebe, Rush a Thornton ve vedlejších rolích potěší.

The cast was literally crammed with so many big names that I was confused by this actually being an average romantic comedy, albeit a well-executed one. Catherine Zeta-Jones was very pleasing to my sensory functions, I was impressed by the acting talent of George Clooney's teeth, Billy Bob Thornton didn't stick around for too long, but it was worth it. I rate this a weak four stars.
