Funny at times, but definitely not their best.

Rating: 4/10 (20 September 2008)

I walked into this movie being a big fan of "The Big Lebowski". However, I was very disappointed. Not only was this movie weird, but it was very complicated. However, there were some moments that I found funny. Brad Pitt was great as the goofy, stupid gym trainer and John Malkovich was perfectly odd as the ex-CIA member caught up in the whole thing. Nevertheless, the story was a bit too complicated for me, and I didn't laugh as much as I'd hoped to. They got rid of Brad Pitt too early into the movie, and they kept Frances McDormand in way too many scenes. I was upset, I wish it was better. But that's okay, because for now, I can watch Jeff Bridges rule as "The Dude" over, and over, and over again.
