I'm not sure if it was top 250 good, but I still had a few good laughs

Rating: 7/10 (2 August 2006)

I'm not sure why, but lately, I have just been hearing reference after reference of The Big Lebowski lately. Not to mention my sister telling me how funny this movie is and that I should definitely watch it. Well, my sister just handed me the movie and said she would not speak to me until I watched it. Some ultimatum, huh? Well, I did watch it immediately.
The Big Lebowski over all was a funny film. I had more than a few good laughs. I think my favorite running gag was between John Goodman and Steve Buchemi and how John just keeps telling him to "Shut the F up, Donnie" and finally his last line to him is "These are bad men, Donnie", I'm not sure why I found it so funny, maybe it was the way it was said. It just played off so well. Also the Jesus gag, the Spanish bowlers were hilarious. Not to mention a few other scenes of The Dude getting knocked out.
But still, I'm not too sure if I found this movie to be funnier than other comedies I prefer. I think everyone has their different taste. But my sister did say to watch it one more time, so hopefully, maybe I'll get why this is such a great movie to others.
7/10
