Burn after reading

i saw this last night, and it best describes how i felt in the last 5 minutes of the film.

WTF just happened? it was an aamzing performance from every single actor/actress in the film. everything was spot on.

defiantly one to watch again.

1. there is already a thread for this movie

2. we didnt like it

yeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaahhhh so neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrr

Yeah it wasn't good

on the other hand frances mcdormand shows her little titties in laurel canyon

haven't seen it yet, but because awkward doesn't like it i quite certain i'll love it!

good movie.

i should clarify anyway. i didnt hate the movie i just didnt love it

burn after watching

eh, it was what it was really... kind of a churned out coen brothers novelty flick with so much quirk it actually did upset me some... still it lived up their MO, i was laughing out loud at the banalities of everyday language and its reiterations through the picture, and the whole message that average people are really meaningless worked out for me.

obviously, it's not at the level of the big lebowski, but what is really... so they got $5 out of me i got a couple'a hours of assembly line coenage and the world goes forward.

Shortest Sinicalypse post ever

oh my god look at that tiny post

i thought it was a pretty good movie, i dont know why people say Big Lebowski is like their top tier film.

This film was not throw away coen imo, it was like a more silly alternate reality version of fargo.

their worst film by some margin

in complete disagreement.

also chris, check the previous Burn thread, there was much more love in there. The people who ended up seeing this late and waited to voice their opinion now in America probably aren't that big of coen brothers fans anyways ;-).

It's exactly what i expected it to be, seems a lot of people were thinking it was going to be an oscar caliber movie like No Country? i have no idea why.

just watched it, thought it was fucking great. nerd heresy to say this but i reckon it was better than the big lebowski. big lebowski always seemed to be more of a wacky stoner movie thats funniest when being retrospectively quoted. these last two coen brothers films have been... shrewd.

i've seen every coen brothers film; i'd argue that barton fink and fargo are in the top 10 films of the 90s.

burn after reading is completely shallow bullshit nihilism; not funny, not interesting, not anything.

i agree with what you first said. Barton Fink is one of my all time top 5 films. Burn i think was more of just a light hearted coen brothers comedy in the vein of Raising Arizona and Big Lebowski. I thought it worked great on that level but to each his own

i just went to the cinema and watched this and it was a bit crap really.

yeah, i mean, i guess i can see how the humor might strike someone else differently ...

saw it twice last week, alone then with some friend.

its fantastic, great package of action, intrigue, drama, fail, lulz and win.

it's a whole film based around one joke that's a bit crap
