one of the funniest movies EVER

Rating: Null/10 (29 February 2000)

If you haven't seen this movie, see it in the near future...never, and i do mean never has a movie been more of a "cognitive" comedy. By this I mean, it isn't a no brainer like "tommy boy" or "the mask". those don't even rank near "the big lebowski". "TBL" makes you think about the different types of people that have surfaced as a result of our new society (the new age) and what happens when you throw them, and a million dollars, together. The "dude" is excellently portrayed by Jeff Bridges. He's a laid back, unemployed, joint smoking bowler. That's who he is. All throughout the movie he tends to pick up other peoples lines and use them, instead of his own...("this aggression will not stand" and "to use the parlence of our times" strike me right off the bat)and so in many ways, he is representative of the average. the other, complimentary characters, are by no means less important, or for that matter, less funny. walter sobjac is one of the funniest characters you will find in any movie ("shomer f***ing shobbas") in conclusion, see the movie, you'll laugh and laugh again
