Summary: This is just my opinion, man....
Review: This movie is freaking hilarious. I'm suddenly a Jeff Bridges fan. Plus, one scene takes place in Simi Valley, California, where I was born and raised. How cool is that? Did I mention that Jeff Bridges rocks in this movie? I think I did, but whatever. You mind if I burn a J?

Summary: I'm perfectly calm, dude
Review: Without a doubt the funniest movie I've ever seen. It's the only movie I can watch over and over and find something to laugh about every single time. Plus, it has a good soundtrack.Just about every character in this movie is memorable--from Walter, the Vietnam vet with a bad temper, to Jesus Quintana, the pedophile/bowler, to the Nihilists (enough said). It's got a pretty crazy plot, and almost definitely requires two viewings, but it's well worth it.

Summary: My stomach still hurts from laughing so hard...
Review: To put this film down in any way, shape or form is sacrilege. Okay, I won't go that far, but it was hilarious. I can't explain it exactly. Perhaps it was the characters or the memorable lines or the repetitive usage of an expletive that did not seem at all tedious but only added to the humor...the film was just funny. Simply funny. It had the quirkiness of Raising Arizona but a slightly more high brow type of humor than that of, dare I say, Dumb and Dumber and Something about Mary. (No diarrhea or mutilated dog scenes in this one.) The Coen brothers and the cast did a great job. I would recommend the film to anyone who likes a new brand of humor.

Summary: Hardly outstanding
Review: O.K this is a pretty funny film, but why is it so damn popular?. It lacks the Coens' usual flair. The main reason being a completely motionless plot. Don't get me wrong some bits are laugh out loud funny but others get bogged down in a dumb storyline.It is a fine no-brainer comedy with a touch of the brothers quality, and some excellent characters, notably Jesus. But I for one expect more invention from directors as clever as the Coens'. I would like to say yeah great film like I usually do. But this time I just can't.

Summary: I've changed my mind, man...5 stars
Review: I reviewed this film earlier and gave it only 4 stars. But after repeat viewing, there is no question this awesome movie deserves 5 stars....It is probably my 3rd most favorite movie of all time.

Summary: The War's Over--The Bums Lost!
Review: "The Big Lebowski" is the Coen Brothers' masterpiece. It goes way beyond the satire and silliness of their other films to tell a myth of post-60s America and the Wild West, line-in-the-sand, "mine's bigger than yours" mentality that got us here. What's left after saving the world from (white) Russians? *@#$ it, let's go bowling . . .

Summary: Rocks
Review: I drank White Russians and smoked far too much for a month after I saw this movie.

Summary: Hilarious!
Review: I'm not going to go into details about this movie. What I will say is that it is bizarre and funny as hell. Really, how can you go wrong with ferret weilding German Nihilists (they look like they should be in the band Rammstein), some burnt out hippie who calls himself "The Dude," and his wacky antics? John Goodman is exceptionally good here--loud, spontaneous and rude. This has to be the best comedy in many years.

Summary: You're out of your element...
Review: This is unquestionably one of the greatest movies ever - if you say otherwise you're a travesty. The Cohen brother's propensity for genious is astounding. The acting and script make this movie an insight into all that is good about this country. I'm just going to go to a cash machine.

Summary: Excellent Cinematography with a great Story and Writing
Review: I saw this movie in the theater the day it came out. At first I thought it was a pretty good movie with some funny moments. Then I rented it when it came out on video and thought pretty much the same thing. Then I bought the DVD 3 weeks ago and have watched at least once a week since and really started to appreciate it. Even the opening credits are funny with the shots of people having fun bowling. The excellent shots of the camera following the ball all the way in. This DVD is great because it has a 20 minute featurette showing how they got those following shots(they did it with a kind of remote control skateboard with the camera on top). I don't see whats wrong with the Academy Awards, they hardly ever nominate anything from Coen brothers movies. I think they should have at least nominated this movie for cinematography, editing, directing, screenplay and supporting actor for John Goodman who was absolutly hilarious. I'm not really sure wether its best picture material but it's a very entertaining movie.I'd say its about 4 and a half stars.
