Who on earth could find this funny?

Rating: 1/10 (10 January 2009)

I was looking forward to this film, but then my wife reminded me, just before it started, a big film with multiple top actors in it, claiming to be a comedy, means the film will be crap. She was right. Then she reminded me that the Coen Brothers also directed "No Country For Old Men" which i can honestly say is one of the worst movies of all time. 4 of us watched it, and i was the only one awake at the end, wishing i wasn't.
What annoys me about "Burn After Reading" is that it is supposed to be a comedy, but i seriously can't remember so much as smiling at any point in the film. I have a good sense of humour, so i am sure it isn't me having an off day. I could see where they had tried to make a funny part in the film, but it just wasn't funny.
I would say to anyone who has yet to watch this film, don't bother. Spend your money on something excellent and watch "Slumdog Millionaire" instead. Its a crime/drama/romance, but you will laugh more watching it than you would with "Burn After Reading"
