Kris Tapley of In Contention seems to think so. This movie appeared it would be a minor Coen film in the vein of The Ladykillers or The Hudsucker Proxy. The description on IMDb suggests a standard comedy instead of what is being called the Coens' most personal film.
The buzz has been great from the Toronto Film Festival and Anne Thompson and Mr. Tapley have compared Man to the films of Woody Allen (not to take away from the Coens' originality, they assure). Most everyone seems to agree that its one of the Coens' best ever. Let the high expectations begin!
Check out Thompson on Hollywood's Anne Thompson and In Contention's Kris Tapley's third edition of Oscar Talk.
