Coming on the heels of an earlier Coen Brothers' film, "A Serious Man," which had an offbeat, quirky logic to it, "Inside Llewyn Davis" is a disappointment. The biggest fault is the story, which goes nowhere (and literally ends up where it began). Unfortunate, because Oscar Isaac is a charismatic leading man, who manages to hold the whole thing together. The most interesting subplot was the cat. The folk music was supposed to be the major topic of the film, but quickly became irrelevant. Lots of wasted effort here.
