Excellent, If You Get Past The Profanity

Rating: 10/10 (2 May 2002)

I love this movie. People I know usually point out the constant use of the 'F' word, but I barely noticed it. The performances are so compelling and the dialogue so inventive, it had me from the very beginning. I loved how "the Dude" learned new words and phrases throughout the movie and used them: "This will not stand, man". One small observation, even though "the Dude" loves bowling, you never see him bowl in the movie. Apparently he's so complacent he can't even embrace something he loves!
