Original, witty and as good if not better than Fargo

Rating: Null/10 (16 February 1999)

Seeing this movie for the first time, I was entertained and delighted by it. Fargo was wonderful, and I have recommended it to everyone, but this one was not as confusing as Fargo with all the sub-plots. John Turturro was funny as Jesus the bowler, and Steve Buscemi (who is wonderful and eccentrically cute), as well as Julianne Moore who gives a bohemian performance. Jeff Bridges and John Goodman steal the show though. As the Dude, he is a typical laid back LA slacker. Walter (John Goodman) is always yelling and recalling Vietnam and Dude always tells him to shut up!! It is a funny, witty, original comedy that is another show-stealer by the wonderful Cohen Brothers. I have not seen one film of theirs that I did not enjoy. This one compares with "Raising Arizona". Rent it today and have a ball!!
