I don't think any of their movies suck. Intolerable Cruelty is my least favorite, but I still mostly liked it.

The Coens are hit-and-miss for me. I think Fargo is their all-time classic. The one I liked the least was Miller's Crossing; just couldn't get into it for some reason. I couldn't get into it the first time I watched it, though I admired it. I gave it another chance and now I like the movie. Not one of my favorites from them, but it is definitely a good movie imo.

I like all the Coen movies I´ve watched, but my least favorite is True Grit.

I liked them all so far, but The Ladykillers and Intolerable Cruelty are on the weaker end for sure.

I don't care for the stuff with George Clooney (though his "invention" is hilarious), but I like most of the rest of the movie. I don't think the movie flows well and it is visually unappealing imo, but I do think the script is funny. I was annoyed when Brad Pitt's character stops being in it, who I assume is the character you are referring to. He seems to be giving the same performance in this, O Brother, and Caesar and I don't really care for any of them. Maybe we're supposed to be falling over ourselves because The World's Sexiest Man Alive TM is being bugeyed and whacky, but I just don't care. The movie would be a lot better if it just focused on Pitt, McDormand, and Malkovich.

I didn’t really get A Serious Man. Wouldn’t say it sucked, but was just a very odd movie.

As Dramatic Look Gopher said: the Coens are hit and miss.
I really have to check out The Big Lebowski again. It did nothing for me, but it seems to have garnered almost universal praise among Coen fans.
Top of the heap for me (in no particular order):
Miller's Crossing The Man Who Wasn't There Fargo Blood Simple Burn After Reading

I'm a staunch defender of Ladykillers, I think it's hilarious. I honestly thought the vast majority of Buster Scruggs was insanely boring.
