This is my first comment, so bare with me. Before it was the WB channel 11 was the best place to see 80s movies. Some I couldn't sit thru and don't even know the name of but many of them became guilty pleasures. I'm not sure if I saw "Hail Caesar!" on channel 11 but its somewhere between "Breakfast Club" and "Ode to Billy Jean" on my 80s favorites.I loved this movie. It ain't The Godfather but it is great for what it is. If you want to laugh and sign along with a movie, this one is perfect. AM Hall is a great comedic actor and an excellent singer. I haven't seen it in years but I still find myself singing "What you feel" from time to time. If you can tolerate 80s movies (which some people can't), this is a gem if you can find it.

i loved everything about this movie. i picked it up because of AM Hall and loved the light hearted wackiness and play on words and I LOVED THE SOUNDTRACK. as a matter of fact, i have been looking to see if the soundtrack is available anywhere. i still can't find it. so i just keep watching the movie over and over. my 12 year old daughter has seen it a few time and likes it also, she tried to get her friends to watch it, but they didn't get it. it was a good lighthearted comedy, with interesting characters.anyway, we are happy to have our own DVD and hope to get the soundtrack someday! i can't think of anything else to say. if you like AM Hall this movie will entertain you.

Saw this gem in the dollar store on vacation and realized I had never seen or heard of it before. Being a fan of several of the actors I decided to pick it up, besides it was only a dollar. Another movie that was available was Samarai Jack. Hooray for Samarai Jack and a resounding "What were they thinking" for "Hail Caesar".They should have included a shower and some toilet paper with this movie.The only entertainment value we had while viewing this piece was guessing what cliché would be exploited next. I do plan however to loan this movie to anyone who annoys me... and they said "Ishtar" was a bad movie.

You people are failing to see what this film really is! How do you expect all the sundry pay channels that gobble your hard earned money to possibly operate on a 24/7 schedule without airing movies like this once or twice or maybe even all day? Think people! It's We who bankrolled this little gem. Time was, an embarrassment such as this piece of utter garbage would be shipped to the guitar pick factory. Now, its called premium television.
