An under-rated classic

Rating: Null/10 (4 July 2002)

You have to love the way this movie just ambles along. The plot more or less takes a back to seat due to the characters who simply shine all the way. The Dude simply rules the movie, and Walter and Donny are the perfect foils for his laid back attitude. The dialogue is just sublime. I believe this movie requires a number of watches to get every nuance of the comedy, and the classic lines lose nothing with repetition. The best that thing the Coen Brothers have done (which says a lot), and should be the benchmark for every movie of it's genre.
