A truly hilarious comedy

Rating: Null/10 (3 February 2003)

The Coens' most memorable film thus far - the scripting and
characterisation are nothing short of comic genius. By placing The
Dude - a helpless, lazy, yet lovable layabout - at the centre of a plot
that spirals relentlessly and in typical Coen fashion, the recipe for
laughter is ready-made. Everything else is just a bonus. The
ensemble cast performs uniform brilliance, Bridges and
Goodman becoming one of the funniest cinematic double-acts in
the process. Glorious.
