A Letdown!

Rating: 6/10 (21 May 2012)

After reading all the reviews and seeing how much people liked this cult classic, I was all ready to watch this and have a good time. By the end of the film, I had to change my judgement. I did have a good time, but I was disappointed that I did not love this. There are some fun, quirky moments but this movie was too strange for my taste.
This is about a guy named "The Dude" who is trying to investigate a case of his missing carpet and missing money.
Jeff Bridges is a great actor, but I he was a little annoying in the movie as "The Dude." However, John Goodman had a classic performance as The Dude's best friend.
Overall, this is a decent at best film. It has some funny moments but not enough to justify the high rating this film got. I thought it was something of a letdown. At least I finally saw a movie that depicted bowling. I rate this film 6/10.
