Not for one seeking an enjoyable or coherent movie.

Rating: 1/10 (14 September 2008)

I saw Disaster Movie a couple of weeks ago. I saw Burn after Reading today. Sure, Burn after Reading has many notable stars, Clooney, Swinton, Pitt, Malkovich, etc, while Disaster Movie had many D list or below actors featured. But the end results of both movies were pretty much the same - BRUTAL!!!! If you're going out for an enjoyable, coherent movie, do yourself a favor and find something else other than Burn After Reading.
What you will get with Burn after Reading is a very slow plot (if you can even call it that) with unlikable characters. The story doesn't launch at all and all the audience is stuck watching Clooney and gang walking around with all the purpose of a chicken with its head cut off. Clooney and company - you guys all need to be ashamed of yourselves- you are all better than this drivel.
What it boils down to is that if you're not a fan of slow moving movies with no real goal or purpose, by 20 minutes into the movie you'll either be constantly checking your watch or even talking with your friends about outright walking out of the movie.
Save your time and money. See something else.
