Prime Video has just added one of the best movies of the 21st century

It definitely has one of the best soundtracks of the 21st century too.

Inside Llewyn Davis, one of the best movies of the 21st century, has been added to Prime Video.

The 2013 film follows a week in the life of Llewyn Davis (Oscar Isaac in his breakthrough role), a folk singer who struggles to make it as a successful musician in New York City's Greenwich Village in 1961.

The music drama was written and directed by the legendary filmmaking duo the Coen Brothers (Fargo, No Country for Old Men) and features an excellent supporting cast including Adam Driver, Carey Mulligan, F. Murray Abraham, John Goodman and Justin Timberlake.

Both an emotionally affecting and a darkly humorous portrait of a failing singer, Inside Llewyn Davis' ingenious narrative structure, beautifully wintry cinematography and gorgeous folk songs made it a box office success upon release, as well as a critics' favourite.

Holding a 92% score on Rotten Tomatoes, the movie was named the 11th greatest film of the 21st century in a 2016 BBC Culture poll and the 2nd greatest film of the 21st century in a similar Hollywood Reporter list.

You can read a sample of some of the glowing reviews for Inside Llewyn Davis here:

The Atlantic: "The Coen brothers' new movie ranks with their very best in its nearly pitch-perfect balance of biting satirical humour and deep reserves of feeling."

Dallas Morning News: "When the Coen brothers commit to something, there's no half-stepping. Every street corner bristles with authenticity. Every song lands exactly where and how it should."

Metro.co.uk: "The direction is pitch-perfect; the characters unique and eccentric yet fully realised; and the script, woven with absurdist comedy, [is] a marvel."

Philadelphia Inquirer: "Inside Llewyn Davis plays like some beautiful, foreboding, darkly funny dream."

Inside Llewyn Davis is streaming on Prime Video in Ireland and the UK right now.
